In the social media age, it has become a tedious ritual to track the tasteless things that people often tweet during unfolding tragedies, and to take tiny-minded satisfaction in shaming them. The devastating tornadoes in Oklahoma are no exception. Comedian and Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead used the tornado to lampoon the current scandal-mania in a series of jokes, then apologized for it. Fox News contributor and Redstate.com editor Erick Erickson offered a tweet that was a mirror image of one of Winstead’s jokes, and has not apologized. Lizz began with a now-deleted tweet referencing the current IRS controversy, sent, as she later noted , before she knew of the storm’s devastating, still-unfolding toll. “This tornado is in Oklahoma so clearly it has been ordered to only target conservatives,” she tweeted . She also joked about the tornado bumping her from a guest spot on MSNBC’s Martin Bashir show, before apologizing about an hour and a half later. “Made a political joke, Twas before devastation revealed. In hindsight, had I understood, I would have refrained. Beyond sorry. # LetMeHaveIt ,” she tweeted, adding “Worse thing is I am from MN! I know this!! Bad joke. Bad Timing. Just bad.” To those trying to downplay her transgression, Lizz tweeted “No, it’s worth giving me shit. I was an idiot.” One of her jokes, however, turned out to be oddly prescient. Mocking Republican scandal fever, she asked “How long has Obama known ab

Tonight on Movie News After Dark , we explore some of the unfriendly feelings that are had toward J.J. Abrams and his Star Trek films, we look at the real life Tony Stark (maybe), see a bit about Natalie Portman’s latest and as always, try to wedge in some Doctor Who . Why We Love, Hate and Love to Hate J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek – Over at Movies.com, Evan Saathoff writes an excellent piece about the mixed emotions the geekosphere seems to have around J.J. and his pair of Trek films. It’s tonight’s must-read. Hannibal and the consequences of violence – In an interview with Buzzfeed, Hannibal showrunner Bryan Fuller talks about violence and death on TV. The man’s handle on such things is the core reason why Hannibal is such a striking show. That and Mads Mikkleson. Jane doesn’t have traction – The eternally troubled production, Jane Got a Gun , starring Natalie Portman, is not winning over any buyers at Cannes, where its rights are being sold. As it turns out, director Lynne Ramsay left over disagreements on “final cut.” More on that later, I’m sure. 15 failed American remakes of UK shows – First, I didn’t even know that there was an American version of Spaced . Second, that Joel McHale-led version of The IT Crowd was awful. The Return of the Coming of Age Film – According to this well-written piece by Calum Marsh, the coming-of-age film is back.

After News of Angelina Jolie’s Double Mastectomy, CNN Anchor Reveals She Will Undergo Procedure

CNN’s anchor Zoraida Sambolin delivered some very personal news on CNN’s “Early Start” this morning. Following Angelina Jolie ‘s op-ed in the New York Times about her decision to have a double mastectomy, Sambolin announced she will undergo the same procedure later this month. “I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer,” Sambolin said. “I’m having a double mastectomy.” Jolie had the surgery because she carried a gene that increases her risk for breast and ovarian cancers. The surgery has cut her breast cancer risk from 87% to under 5%. Sambolin was diagnosed about three weeks ago, and she will also have genetic testing as part of her mastectomy. Sambolin got emotional talking about her decision. “As a woman your sexuality and your breasts and how attached you are to them, right, as a woman. So at the end of the day, it’s really difficult to say that I’m thinking about this, that this is something that affects me when I have two kids I want to live for. At the end of day I’m going to cut off my arms if it means that I am going to live to see them and to see them grow up.” New Career Opportunities Daily: The best jobs in media .
