u NBC TO AIR HILLARY CLINTON MINISERIES: BEVERLY HILLS (AP) — A Hillary Rodham Clinton miniseries timed to precede the 2016 presidential election is part of NBC’s effort to create “event” programming that will draw viewers to the shrinking world of broadcast network TV, NBC’s programming chief said Saturday.“We need to be in the event business. I think you’re going to hear that from every broadcast network,” said Bob Greenblatt, NBC Entertainment chairman.The four-hour miniseries “Hillary,” starring Diane Lane as the former first lady and secretary of state, is one such bid for distinctive programming, he said.The goal is to woo viewers who are increasingly drawn away by cable TV’s eye-catching, critically acclaimed fare like “Mad Men” and “Breaking Bad” and other media choices.Broadcasting’s audience is shrinking by 4 percent to 7 percent annually, Greenblatt told a meeting of the Television Critics Association.u JUDGE TACKS ON 50 YEARS IN NJ FATHER RAPE CASE: PATERSON, N.J. (AP) — A New Jersey man already in prison for sexually assaulting one of his daughters has been sentenced to an additional 50 years for raping and impregnating one of her siblings.The man still faces three more trials — one for each of the remaining daughters he is accused of assaulting. The Associated Press does not generally identify victims of sexual assault and is not reporting the man’s name to protect the identity of his alleged victims.In court Friday, the self-styled music producer faced a daughter who had testified she bore four of his children.
