-New York Times op-ed columnist Frank Rich has signed on as a consultant to HBO. [DHD]

-Tina Brown has hired Ziddio executive Caroline Marks to manage her new news aggregator, which is described as like "Huffington Post, but more culture and less political wonkishness in a bolder and more colorful design." [BoomTown]. □
