EDITORIAL
THE SLEUTHSAYER
In our first issue of Tele•Visions (vol. 2, no. 3), we reported that "98
percent of all American households have televisions"; in this second installment,
we can now report that 63 percent have two or more sets, and that the average person watches these a mind-boggling (literally!) 7 hours per day. No wonder Time magazine has concluded TV is often, and rightly, regarded as a mirror of social realities
of the present. It also serves as a kind of time machine for backtracking into
history—a social barometer of the times:'
When CELEBRITY SLEUTH similarly backtracks into history, we're more often in search
of fronts—defined by the meteorological dictionary as "the area between
two hemeakoasses" that "generally determines our weather" Weather
or not we locate such fronts, then, generally determines if a particular celebrity
bares inclusion.
In this issue, our thirteenth overall, we've been extraordinarily lucky: 50 of
the small screen's biggest sirens whose nude pasts were once feared lost... have
now been found and are grouped together to form the largest contingent we've ever
put between two covers. In most cases, that's all that covers them! And as with
any sexy subject, there are two sides: "I think showing off your body is
inherent in the acting profession," says Louisa Moritz {who does, on pp.24-25).
The public is curious about the people they see in the movies and on TV."
Rising star Julia (Mystic Pizza) Roberts, however, offers this rebuttal: "I'm
really against nudity in movies. I heard a great saying one time When you act
with your clothes on, it's a performance. When you act with your clothes off,
it's a documentary.' I don't do documentaries!
We, on the other hand, do documentaries on performers ....
Cable-ready or not, here they come!
