'Bossypants' Fey: I Didn't Exploit Palin

Tina Fey on her Sarah Palin impersonation, Steve Carell, and being a workaholic

(NEWSER) - Tina Fey talks about many things in her interview with Laura Brown for Harper’s Bazaar—her “Halloween wig”-like hair, her “Tootsie”-like glasses—but the most important news? The resurrection of her Sarah Palin impersonation. “I feel like I've probably not worn that wig for the last time. At some point, it will come out of the closet,” she says, marveling over the way her impression “had some strange weight to it. It was weird. I'm not a pundit.” More»

(NEWSER) - As if its record 22 Emmy nominations weren’t enough, 30 Rock also recently landed a syndication deal. Tina Fey talks success—and Sarah Palin—with Broadcasting & Cable:

• On possibly hosting the Emmys: "No, I think it's a hard job and a thankless one. I think maybe it's also a job for a standup [comic], and I was never a standup. I guess, never say never. But the thought of it makes me feel sweaty."

But Alec Baldwin is in it to the last, she assures 'The View'

(NEWSER) - The good news: Despite the fact that Alec Baldwin went on a Twitter tirade threatening to leave NBC, he is not bowing out of 30 Rock early, Tina Fey assured the ladies of The View today. The bad news? The show, currently in its sixth season, may not be around much longer. "We're all in this together 'til the end," she said. "I think that he just maybe means that the end of the show—we're in six years—that the end of the show is visible on the horizon. We're all still on the show." More»

He says Tina Fey will go on to direct, write films

The magazine notes that Baldwin has talked of leaving the show in 2012, but has never before mentioned that the show itself might end. More»

But only because ceremony ran long, producer insists

(NEWSER) - Tina Fey thanked Sarah Palin last week when she won the Kennedy Center's Mark Twain Prize for American Humor—but that's not all she said. When PBS broadcast the ceremony Sunday night, some of Fey's more controversial remarks were cut out. Most notably: "And, you know, politics aside, the success of Sarah Palin and women like her is good for all women ... unless you're a gay woman who wants to marry your partner of 20 years—whatever. But for most women, the success of conservative women is good for all of us. Unless you believe in evolution. You know, actually, I take it back. The whole thing's a disaster." More»
