LETTERS TO L.A. LIFE\Yea on commentary, nay on declining TV fare.Just read "Not a 'Single' Bit of Sense to It" in the (Jan. 11) Daily News, and your true and rare sense of values, good judgment and humorous approach to the sad decline of TV fare made me want to cheer! The death of talent and good taste is so overwhelming that KCET KCET Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo (Japan) KCET Kamaraj College of Engineering and Technology is about the only station worth watching, aside from an occasional bright light on the networks or independent stations. Not only is the programming pathetic, but the performers, with a few exceptions, are mostly ungroomed, looking as though they could stand a good shower or bath. - Ruth Fredricks Hidden Hills 'Frontline' criticized for Rush to judgment Re: " 'Frontline' on Rush Limbaugh Rush Hudson Limbaugh III (born January 12, 1951) is an American conservative radio talk show host and political commentator.

PBS provides its member stations, which are supported by public funds and private contributions rather than by commercials, with educational, cultural, . I am not a "dittohead," but I have listened to Rush Limbaugh enough to know that the producers of this program really did a number on him. They deleted any ideas of substance and passion that he expresses, and portrayed him as an opportunistic buffoon. If they were not worried about the message beyond his egocentricity e·go·cen·tric adj. 1. Holding the view that the ego is the center, object, and norm of all experience. 2. a.

Perhaps, being unable to "hush Rush," they are trying to trivialize him. - Barbara Jean Hall Encino Arnold taken to task for remarks to Hatcher I would like to add my sentiments to Sunday night's lewd and uncalled for, hitting below the belt remarks (during the Golden Globe awards show) from a no-talented over-bloated slob, Tom Arnold Tom Arnold is the name of:

As for what Teri Hatcher does best, who the hell would pay a plug nickel to look at Tom Arnold? I've seen better bodies on dairy cows. - Benjamin R. Laufer Sherman Oaks 'Matty' scores another win for baseball fan I couldn't decide whether to write this letter to you or to the sports department. Since your review and recommendation was a deciding factor, you get it. I saw the one-man play "Matty - An Evening With Christy Mathewson - Alan Matis Woodland Hills An unexpected lesson from teacher Dreyfuss My letter is in regard to your L.A. Life Weekend article dated Jan. 19, 1996, "Mr. Dreyfuss' Resurgence." In 1977 I had the misfortune of taking an acting class Richard Dreyfuss Richard Stephen Dreyfuss (born October 29, 1947) is an Academy Award-winning American actor. Biography Early life Dreyfuss was born in Brooklyn, New York, the son of Norman, an attorney and restaurateur, and Geraldine, a peace activist. was teaching in Hollywood. Mr. Dreyfuss arrived late for every class. He was unprepared, and the only thing he talked about were his movies and himself. On the last day of class I handed Mr. Dreyfuss a letter in which I expressed my views. At the end of the class I approached Mr. Dreyfuss to discuss my letter, and he simply turned and walked away. At the time I was in my first year of college, and I went to my English professor to get an honest opinion of my letter. I will never forget what my professor said, and I quote: "That's a well-written letter. If Richard Dreyfuss really cared about what he was teaching, he would have taken the time to talk to you." Thank God Mr. Dreyfuss has continued in a profession of make-believe, and left teaching to the real professionals. - K.L. Berkshire Encino CAPTION(S): PHOTO Photo Tom Arnold Foot in mouth disease |
