I hear the deal isn’t done yet. Remember how pre-merger he was pushed out by William Morris alpha female Jennifer Rudolph Walsh, and then took all his clients with him. Meanwhile, 3 Arts Entertainment has been trying to recapitalize.
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.


considering abate did big $ book deals for tracy morgan and tina fey, it would make sense for 3 arts to have him in house for the other clients. if abate can broker or “consult” on publishing deals as a manager, he’ll have chelsea handlers franchise at his disposal as well as other comedy peeps like poehler, rainn wilson, mindy kaling, always sunny in philly guys etc. the only question that remains is whether abate can bring his 4 person nyc operation into the mix and if 3 arts has the capital to support such a move…
its insulting to other females to call jrw a female…
I don’t get why Jennifer R. Walsh still has a job. That she represents the Seinfeld harlot and Kaavya What’s-her-name shows perfectly how much of a joke she is.
Abate used to walk around ICM NY as if he was the 2nd coming of Sam Cohn. yet he didn’t nearly have the class that Cohn had. which is not saying much. Abate was probably the only man in that entire office that I wanted to punch in the face.
abate’s a good guy. this deal would work well for both parties involved.
Isn’t it interesting that anytime a woman is stong and successful it is her femininity that is attacked? ANTHONY THOMPSON, either you are a woman with a very masculine name or you should get your dick out from between your legs — how else would you know what is insulting to a woman??
Abate’s a good guy? Ha!
Women are warm, intelligent, tough but caring brilliant creatures- jennifer is NONE of those things coffee please- i didn’t attack her feminity at all
coffee please! Are you seriously defending Walsh??!! If so you should have your womanhood revoked. Walsh reps strictly plagiarists.
“Women are warm, intelligent, tough but caring brilliant creatures”. Oh, ANTHONY THOMPSON, go back to your magazine.
And MARKUS, I laughed at the notion that Abate is a good guy because I find it laughable. I don’t need to defend Walsh, her list of writers speaks for itself. You think she turned you down because you weren’t a plagarist? Unlikely.
