Hillary Busis

Oh hello — I didn’t see you there! I’m a full-time writer for Entertainment Weekly’s website and the magazine’s official Tumblr-er. I’ve also had stints at The Wall Street Journal online (TV recapper for their Speakeasy blog), Interview Magazine’s website (associate online managing editor), and Mediaite (associate editor, and the brains behind their Tumblr).

This is my blog, and my Twitter is over here.

There are, somehow, two Wikipedia entries that use me as a reference.

Here’s a list of links to some stuff I’ve written. Please assume that I wrote the good headlines and someone else wrote the bad ones. You can see my full resume on LinkedIn.
