It’s game over for advertisers wanting in on the Super Bowl – the February 2 Fox broadcast of the football championship has sold out, a month ahead of CBS‘s sellout announcement last year.

A week after Alec Baldwin‘s exit, Martin Bashir is out at MSNBC. Bashir’s offensive comments about Sarah Palin on November 15 sparked criticism, prompting the afternoon talk show host to issue an on-air apology, then take time off.

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences is accepting submissions for the 41st Annual Daytime Emmys – and all judging and voting will be done online. “We are thrilled to be taking the Daytime Emmy Awards contest into the 21st century,” Daytime Emmy Awards senior executive director David Michaels tells Cynopsis. “People can judge from anywhere – including their ipads – making it very convenient. We feel that this new system will increase the participation of qualified industry judges.”
