Elián González knows no life outside of being a pawn of propaganda. His media appearances, seemingly orchestrated by the Cuban government, have become quite common over the past few months to mark the tenth anniversary of his return to Cuba. Now, the Latin American Herald Tribune reports González gave an…
Adopting an alter ego for a commercial is a time-honored tradition among NBA players. There was Larry Johnson’s Grandma Ma, Penny Hardaway’s Lil Penny, and of course LeBron James’s multi-personality turn in Nike’s “The LeBrons” commercials. Now Dwyane Wade has joined the tradition, shilling for Gatorade as a sports store clerk…
Remember Doug Giles? He’s the father of “ACORN ho” Hannah Giles, an aspiring conservative talking head, and senior pastor of Aventura’s Clash Church. Giles has always been unhinged, but his latest video is a bigoted, ignorant hate fest that attacks Muslims and undermines America’s freedom of religion. And, oh, yeah,…

Liberty City-native Chad Ochocinco failed to find love with his own VH1 reality show, but as luck would have it he’s apparently found love another star from the channel’s reality TV line-up: Basketball Wives’ Evelyn Lozada, the ex-fiancé of former Heat player Antoine Walker and owner of a shoe boutique on…
Liberty City native Chad Ochocinco was fined $25,000 this weekend for using Twitter during the Bengal’s pre-season game against the Eagles. Apparently, using social media or electronic devices during games or practices is banned by the NFL. Now Dolphins running back Ricky Williams is in hot water after updates appeared…
Rick Scott, now the official Republican nominee for Governor, has made Arizona-style immigration laws a main issue in the election. The controversial laws are none-too-popular amongst Hispanic voters (in fact, some are theorizing that Bill McCollum’s hard right flip-flop in favor of them may have cost him the election), so…
An armed bank robber is on the lose in Coral Gables near the University of Miami campus. The college is on alert, while two public schools with young children in the area, Sunset Elementary School and Henry S. West Laboratory School, are in precautionary lock down…
Today Florida went to the polls for the 2010 primary election. While tonight’s big theme involved controversial, self-funded billionaire outsiders taking on establishment career politicians in both the Republican primary for Governor and Democratic primary for Senate, there’s still lots of ballot action to watch. Both parties have contested primaries…

Raknotur, the mighty documentary force behind Cocaine Cowboys and The U, is preparing to release their latest film this Fall called Square Grouper. But what exactly is a square grouper? It is not, as we first thought, what hipster fish call their less culturally relevant brethren. It’s a term from…
Here in Miami spotting an alligator is pretty routine. People tend to get a bit upset every once in a while if they eat a small dog or something, but otherwise it’s no big deal. Up in New York or Chicago however the appearance of an alligator apparently makes people…
Despite being thousands of miles from Florida and having nothing to do with local politics, the so-called “Ground Zero Mosque” has become an issue in the sunshine state’s 2010 election. While even some Democrats (we’re looking at you Alex Sink and Ron Klein) have come out against the Islamic community…

With the primary election tomorrow, congressional candidate Rudy Moise’s bizarre campaign web ad only had a few hundred views on YouTube. That’s really a shame because it is just about one of the worst political ads we have ever seen. It features a bunch of supporters talk-rapping with their voices…
Jeff Greene has used nearly $23 million of his own money trying to win the Democratic nomination for senator, and he’s not even done spending. But tomorrow is Election Day, and two recent polls show Greene’s candidacy is pretty much dead in the water…
In today’s roundup of the sins of South Florida: A congressional candidate has her purse snatched after a man points a gun at her head outside a church; some students will spend their first month of class in a fancy hotel; a traffic accident claims one life; and another storm…
The Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville was all set to host “International Burn a Koran Day” to commemorate the 9th anniversary of 9/11 in all their joyous, ignorant, bigoted glee. But the City of Gainesville has denied them the proper permits. The church says it’s still going to burn…
Fidel Castro has a new favorite book: Daniel Estulin’s The True Story of the Bilderberg Group, which is more or less full of conspiracy theories. Tinfoil hats are recommended accessories when reading it. Castro’s three page story in Wednesday edition of communist party newspaper Granma largely quotes from the book,…
Marlins catcher Ronny Paulino is not exactly the slimmest slugger on the roster. Like a trophy housewife he often struggles with his weight, and decided to take the easy way out and get some pharmaceutical help. That’s his story anyway. Paulino claims the weight loss pills led to his positive…
