Budweiser taps JibJab for online content

Anheuser-Busch has hired JibJab Media, creators of the animated video clip "This Land is Your Land," to craft online ads for the brewer. The two brother team, Gregg and Evan Spiridellis, will create web-based content designed to drive viewers to the Budweiser website. The duo have already created a clip, called, "Roll Out the Barrel," which hopes to combat the rising preference for spirits over beer among younger drinkers, says Adrants.

Prosecutors file motion to open Limbaugh's medical records

Prosecutors with the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office have filed a motion to obtain Rush Limbaugh's medical records. A hearing has been scheduled for 8:30 a.m. today in front of Palm Beach Circuit Judge Jeffrey Winikoff. Winikoff is the judge who first granted prosecutors access to the records 12/03. Limbaugh's attorneys appealed and the records have been sealed since then and are in Winikoff's possession.

Last month, the Florida Supreme Court denied an appeal from Limbaugh, removing a hurdle for prosecutors to use Rush's medical records as they investigate his illegally-acquired prescription painkillers, including oxycontin "hillbilly heroin" and hydrocodone. Prosecutors used search warrants to seize Limbaugh's records in 2003 as they investigated whether he "doctor shopped," illegally visiting multiple doctors to receive duplicate prescriptions.
