Movers and Shakers: Marilyn Scandal, Time Magazine Shocks and Eli Weds!
April 23, 2008

Marilyn Monroe increased 800% on our Movers and Shakers chart after rumors of a Monroe sex tape selling for $1.5 million surfaced last week. The 15-minute black and white video is said to have been shot in the 1950s, before the starlet gained her notoriety. Skeptics claim that the tape is a sham and reports now indicate the sex tape was a part of a publicity stunt. Keya Morgan, the memorabilia collector who claimed to stumble across the footage while researching his documentary on Monroe, reportedly has a history of unsupportable claims. According to Mark Bellinghaus, the leading Marilyn Monroe expert, there are too many holes in the Morgan's story. "What Keya Morgan is promoting equates to questionable stories generated simply to sell another book or push another cheesy documentary."

Time Magazine's latest cover is creating quite the buzz, increasing 412% this week. For only the second time in 85 years, Time Magazine discarded the traditional red border it uses on its cover in order make readers aware of the global warning issues. The April 21 cover issue took the famous photograph at Iwo Jima of the Marines raising the American flag and replaced the flag with a tree to promote environmental awareness. Iwo Jima veterans including Donald Mates are outraged. Mates told the Business & Media Institute that using that photograph for that cause was a "disgrace." Time managing editor Richard Stengel appeared on MSNBC April 17 defending the cover's purpose stating the US needs to make a major effort to fight climate change.

Eli Maning scored a 217% increase after marrying his college sweetheart, Abby McGrew, this past weekend. About 60 loved ones flew to Mexico to join Manning and his bride for the intimate ceremony at the One & Only Palmilla, a swank resort along the Sea of Cortez on the Baja Peninsula. Eli Manning, 27, proposed to McGrew, 24, in March 2007. The couple met while they were students at the University of Mississippi.
