Arianna Huffington's thick Greek accent and obsession with blogging receive numerous jabs throughout the series. The word "blog" is often substituted for various nouns and verbs. While filling out an Internet dating profile, Ullman as Huffington types, "Must enjoy nice long blogs in the rain." She clutches her laptop in her arms and kisses it goodnight upon going to sleep. Huffington takes the parody in good humor, saying, "I actually loved it." Huffington continued, "She does a really good imitation of me... And you know....she ends a lot of her imitations of me by saying 'blogs and kisses,' which is kind of something pretty good. I like that. Huffington's parody is generally lighthearted. The same wouldn't be said for the show's take on the American news media and its "fear mongering". Real-life CNN news anchor Campbell Brown serves as the vessel in which this is made apparent. In one episode, "Horror, terror, horror, terror, nightmare, horror, fear. Back to you, Brian", serves as the entire report issued by Brown. Campbell issued a statement regarding the parody saying that she "loves, loves Tracey Ullman, and is a huge fan of the show." Brown went on to say that she wanted to book Ullman on her 8 p.m. program. Larry David, ex-husband of Laurie David (who's impersonated in the show), publicly confronted Ullman yelling that he didn't appreciate what she did to his wife and how she was upset. Ullman says it turned into an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm''. She later apologized personally to Laurie David. In the end, Ullman contends that celebrities "love being impersonated".
