Hi Joe, I love your debut piece on Marilyn. I'm a longtime Ankler reader, listener, and fan. You guys also acknowledged my pr work with disabled talent with an Ankler hat! As a Rat Pack devotee, I absorb everything Marilyn. Your article caught my deep Rat Pack interest. One of my highlights was having Joey Bishop phone chat buddy for five years before his death. He used to enthrall me with stories about his friendship and collegiality with Marilyn and friends. Looking forward to more Hollywood "Rewinding." Vince Staskel

"Hollywood Babylon" is complete bullshit from page one to page last. Particularly the "account" of the Fatty Arbuckle "murder," which has no connection whatsoever with the truth (I wrote an award-winning documentary on the true facts in that case). If this is the kind of stuff you're going to recycle, I'm regretting my subscription five minutes after I made it.
