The Wednesday night competition was last most- watched program among viewers ages 18 to 49, the group targeted by Fox, ABC and NBC, as well as those ages 18 to 34, continuing the summer-long trend, according to figures released Tuesday by Nielsen Media Research. The show tied for the weekly lead among viewers 12 to 17 with another Fox unscripted series, The Thursday results show was third for the week among viewers 18 to 49 and tied for third with the animated Fox comedy among viewers 18 to 34.

draws a young crowd chapters in industry history. When Hitler was killing Jews in Europe during the Holocaust, Hollywood studio chiefs were largely mum, rarely giving money to Jewish refugees or God forbid making movies about the subject until long after all 6million Jews were dead. In the 1950s, at the height of the Joseph McCarthy-led Red Scare, it was the predominantly Jewish studio chiefs who caved in to government threats and instituted an industrywide blacklist against alleged communists. The fact that no one ever made a good case that these alleged communists most of them cranky screenwriters had ever engaged in any subversive activity, other than trying to slip a share-the-wealth gag intoan Ab- bottand Costello comedy, hardly mattered. Guilty by sus- picion and association, they were summarily fired and often had careers permanently ruined.

The tragedy, of course, was that the blacklist run by the government. It was engineered by Hollywood studio chiefs, many of them first-generation Jewish immigrants, worried that if they persecute the easy targets loudmouth writers and bit players they would be next. After all, anti- Semitism so far away. Walt Disney himself refused to hire Jews for years. When one of his longtime employees took a job at Columbia Pictures, Disney snapped: off you go to work with those Jews.

where you belong, with those Hollywood Jews have always been insecure about their religion, often with good reason, which is why for years Jewish actors changed their names to more WASPy monikers. Emmanuel Goldenberg became Edward G. Robinson. Muni Weisen- freund became Paul Muni. David Kaminsky became Danny Kaye.

Film-noir hero John Garfield started out as Julius Garfinkle but changed his last name to Garfield when he came to Hollywood as a Warner Bros. contract player. Jack Warner was unimpressed, saying, sound Garfield reminded him that Garfield was the name of an American president. Great, said Warner, call you James Garfield. Garfield protested, saying he use name.

You rock the boat. When a star puts his foot in a big, steaming pile of dung, you swallow your pride, graciously accept the apology Mel has made two already and quietly move on.

After all, Gibson may be down right now, but after a requisite PR ritual of apology, detox and atonement (is there any doubt that the likes of Larry King and Diane Sawyer are already scrambling to see get the first interview with a penitent Gibson?) Mel will be back in action, just the right lead for a summer box- office extravaganza. If someone had made some testy remark about anti-Jew tirade, who would be apologizing then? executives are clearly not the bravest people in the says Howard Rosenman, producer of Family and the Vampire want to alienate Mel or Ed Limata, one of the most powerful agents in town. all thinking, what happens if he comes out of this and said work with me when I need what saddens me the most about virtual silence on Gibson. He going to go away. His star necessarily going to fade.

And the longer he keeps making movies, the harder it will be to forget that of all the powerful studio kings and queens, only Pascal had the quiet courage to say what was on everyone mind. telling that she say she was outraged; she said she was disappointed in Gibson. I feel the same way about her studio peers. Once again, Hollywood had a chance to do the right thing, and once again it flunked the test.

In full-page ad in Daily Variety, placed by Comedy Central, the answer is clear from the cartoon showing characters next to the Scientology headquarters. Though the ad appears to be ahumorous and timely takeoff on widely reported tirade against Jews during last arrest in a drunk driving case, the timing is Comedy Central spokes- manTony Fox said Tuesday. In fact, the ad congratulates on its Emmy nomination for the episode in the and refers to another controversy altogether the still unresolved question of whether Tom Cruise influenced Comedy Central to pull a scheduled rerun of the Scientology- satirizing episode inMarch. a little bit of an inside joke at our expense for pulling the Scientology Fox said.

creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have said they submitted that particular episode for Emmy consideration as a reproof to executives who initially refused to re-air the show, originally televised last November.

Though Cruise was widely rumored to have asked that the episode not be replayed an allegation he denied Fox said: never commented on were aware the guys were unhappy.
