The Beat named among EW’s 100 Greatest Websites
Thanks to my EW colleagues for the very nice kudo:
The Beat pwbeat.publishersweekly.com/blog/ Heidi MacDonald is one of comic-dom’s premiere journalists, and this ‘’news blog of comics culture'’ is the result of her hard work.
We owe it all to one man.

Not Bruce? WTF?

2008 will be the year of the Bruce. 2007 was all DDGB’s sweaty abs, let’s face it.

[…] We must crawl out of your temporary exile to the depths of the deadline cave, and surface to wish Heidi MacDonald of The BEAT warm, fuzzy, girly hug-like confections of gooey squeals for making Entertainment Weekly’s list of 100 Greatest Blogs. […]

Congrats Heidi! And while you may owe it to GB, I presume that you have CO’s various filming locations in NYC sniffed out (since he was there before GB).
