ACORN: The ACORN framing report cited by Rachel Maddow can be found here. Discussion over at Slate is interesting too. Some note the actors are obviously fake, so the people involved might have seen it as some sort of test to show they kept the details private. Or, that people realized when dealing with people from the streets the best way was to humor them. Fair enough, but even playing acting respecting teen sex slavery, particularly when you get tax dollars and a lot of bad press, is simply stupid. But, yes, the clowns were not "reporting," since they only selectively provided information. For instance, they did not note the number of times they were kicked out.
Twins: An interesting medical novelty points to the fact that birth, not conception, matters in the eyes of the law. Also, the trickiness of definitions is shown in another way: they are "twins," since it's one pregnancy and one birth. I don't know how far to take this, but it does make me think of various reproductive choice questions. "Contraceptives" including those that stop implantation etc. Strict following of definitions without context will lead you to a brick wall at times.
The Good Wife: Rory Gilmore's last boyfriend, a rich schmuck, is the young nemesis on The Good Wife. Well, at least, a lead character isn't dating him. He's also in a gross out movie. A lot of schmukc roles out there, I guess. Anyway, as I noted, that show might have predictable legal moves (first off, she discovers hidden evidence to get her client off, showing her chops -- how realistic!). But, there are signs of good character interaction, including a quick scene with her son. Character also balances out the suspect legal moves in Drop Dead Diva.
Tiresome: A PSA for breast cancer awareness uses a sexy babe to remind that those who like them should care about that issue. This tedious knee-jerk post, unfortunately a strand seen there at times, translates this to mean: "[b]ecause the only way to get people to care about women dying of breast cancer is to remind them that tits are stake." As a few in the comments note, no, it means that for some that could help.*

* The blog is sex friendly, but when an ad uses sex to promote a good cause, suddenly it's all sexism alert!!!! Similarly, a post a few months back was horrified that a woman was fired because she wouldn't wear a far from overly sexy uniform to be a barmaid. Sex friendly at times requires a bit more perspective.
BTW, that blog (as with TPM) has one of those annoying comment streams where I have problems signing in. But, I comment enough places, I guess.
