  3. Mouse house tops Studio Report Card

    IN the documentary &quot;King Corn," a couple of guys decide to move to Iowa and see what it's like to grow an acre of corn. Even though it looks like a picture-postcard cornfield, they discover that what they've really done is grow an acre of sugar.

(The magazine did run a photo of "30 Rock" creator Tina Fey, but she was identified as "showing her solidarity" with the strikers, not as one of their own.)
