Our June member drive is live: protect this resource!
Right now, we need your help during our short June member drive to keep the local news you read here every day going. This has been a challenging year, but with your help, we can get one step closer to closing our budget gap. Today, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership.

PaleyFest 2012 opens tonight at 7 pm at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills with the cast and creators from American Horror Story, guests include Executive Producer Ryan Murphy, Connie Britton, (Vivien Harmon), Dylan McDermott (Ben Harmon) and Jessica Lange (Constance Langdon), among others.

Officially known as the 29th Annual William S. Paley Television Festival, the two-week fest is a celebration of current television shows. The numerous events break down the barriers (aka TV sets) between those of us who watch TV and the people on the other side of the screen. The moderated discussions may also include questions from the audience.

For the first time, Livestream will provide live streaming of all PaleyFest 2012 panels from the Saban Theatre. They won’t be archived on Livestream, so be sure to mark your calendars if you can’t make it in real life:
