Ed's Trust Fund Summer 2008: EARLIER DEADLINE!
*******************
Listen up, up-and-coming Edsters in the city soon for summer internships! Ed is back on his giving spree and is handing out his Ed's Trust Fund for the summer session, and he wants to let you know that the deadline has been moved up to FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 2008. If you're an UNPAID intern at a magazine in New York City this summer, then Ed wants to help you out! Read Ed's Trust Fund rules (aka: the "fine print")—and snatch an application—at www.ed2010.com/ed-campus/trust-fund. (Ed also encourages potential applicants to read the amazing testimonials from past winners on the same web page.) You only need to have your summer internship secured when you apply. The prize? $1,000 to use however you please. (But Ed hopes the winner'll use it to, well, live in this amazing yet ridiculously expensive city!) But don't forget: The deadline is earlier this year: FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 2008!

Now that it's a hit and moving to a new network, "Project Runway" has lots of magazines eager to partner up with the show for the sixth season. As reported exhaustively (in WWD and other outlets), "Project Runway" will continue its relationship with Elle through season five, which airs on Bravo this summer. The Weinstein Co. is still in negotiations for all of its partnership and sponsors for season six, when the show will be broadcast on Lifetime. According to sources close to the reality show, five magazines are said to be courting The Weinstein Co. for the show — Glamour, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Harper's Bazaar and In Style — and will hold out for "the highest bidder." Of course, it perhaps is no coincidence that three of the magazines bidding are owned by Hearst Corp., which also owns Lifetime with The Walt Disney Co. (guess that's what's called "synergy").
