Description:	Roger Friedman began his Showbiz411 column in April after 10 years with Fox News where he helped create Foxnews.com. Friedman’s prior experience on the Internet is with MSN’s Cinemania column. In the mid-90s, Friedman wrote the Intelligencer column as a contributing editor at New York Magazine, where he covered the O.J. Simpson criminal trial. Friedman started out in book publishing in New York in the mid-80s, first at Ballantine Books, where his authors included bestselling chef Pierre Franey and baseball guru Bill James. In 1987 he started Fame magazine, which had a three-year run as a national competitor to Vanity Fair. In 2002, a documentary he made with DA Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus, called “Only the Strong Survive,” was an official selection of the Cannes, Sundance, and Telluride film Festivals. It was released by Miramax in 2003 and is available from Buena Vista Home Video. At Foxnews.com, Friedman covered and broke stories about the Michael Jackson child molestation trial, Anna Nicole Smith’s mysterious death, and other pressing celebrity matters. He does not know who Jon and Kate are, and doesn’t care to find out.
