I'm finding this very interesting, mainly for what is not being said.
From Reuters:


"Viacom Inc.'s Paramount Pictures unit is ending its 14-year relationship with Tom Cruise's film production company because of the actor's offscreen behavior, the company's chairman said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal.

Sumner Redstone, Viacom chairman, said the behavior of the star of the "Mission: Impossible" series and "Top Gun" was unacceptable to the company, according to the Wall Street Journal story e-mailed to reporters.

Cruise, one of Hollywood's biggest stars, has been known more recently for his antics on U.S. television talk shows, including jumping up and down on Oprah Winfrey's couch to declare his love for Katie Holmes and criticizing the use of antidepressant drugs.

"As much as we like him personally, we thought it was wrong to renew his deal," Redstone was quoted as saying in the Wall Street Journal. "His recent conduct has not been acceptable to Paramount."



My first thought? That they are cutting ties NOW, because something even stranger is about to come out. Perhaps we're finally going to find out that there's no baby. Or, poor katie holmes parents are about to do an intervention and get her...revealing that fake baby scam.

I really think it is something big. That's major damage control folks.

Yuppers that I was thinking - no baby, baby is very sick and no one wants to admit it.

More sad for Katie than for that POS Cruise.

No baby, mommy brainwashed and signed over to a cult.
Another rumor states it took three weeks of retouching before everyone was satisfied with the photos taken (of a very small baby) for the vanity fair cover. Interesting, I typed "suit" first, not cover.

Thing is, if the baby was sick, and one was honest about it, public sentiment would shift.
