Oh yeah, I got nominated for a National Entertainment Journalism award for these HuffPost blogs, but no other outlet is going to run that story, right? Hahaha–why would Gawker or The New York Post want to publicize that an actor/Yale doctoral candidate is nominated for an award for something that they are doing themselves? I’m pretty proud of it, but I can see why they must hate me.


Of course we care, actor/Yale doctoral candidate, James Franco! And we don’t hate you! We’re so glad you wrote a letter to a friend named R______, where you sort of talk about your feelings about Flight and The Sessions, and then decided just to post it on HuffPost, like a real journalist! (Like Celebuzz, who was nominated for six of those awards!)
