"Politically Blonde" doesn't make the cut

The new liberal political magazine being planned from L.A. by Helen O'Donnell won't be a revival of George but it still will try for a little of the Kennedy association. O'Donnell, the daughter of former JFK aide Kenneth O'Donnell, sounded out Kennedy friendlies about using the George name since that magazine shut down after the death of its founder, John F. Kennedy Jr. She's going instead with The New Frontier, the Boston Globe reports. The Common Good was rejected, along with Politically Blonde (suggested in fun by L.A. Times columnist Patt Morrison). First, though, the magazine has to publish -- it's more than a year behind the early ambitions.
