- Both MTV and VH1 agreed not to air Kanye West's music video for "Monster," which grotesquely eroticizes dead women, despite a new disclaimer about how it isn't meant to be "misogynist." I am sure he will find a way to write a song about how he's been victimized by this. [Adios Barbie]

- Christine Lagarde, the finance minister of France, was selected to be the first-ever woman to run the International Monetary Fund today.
