'Mad Men' actor moving to '30 Rock' for a spell

Jon Hamm is temporarily trading the offices of Sterling Cooper for "30 Rock."

The actor, who plays advertising executive Don Draper on AMC's "Mad Men," will portray the love interest of Tina Fey character Liz Lemon — a doctor who lives in her apartment.

Could it last?

"I just finished a couple of episodes, and I'll go back in the new year and do another one of those, and then we'll see what happens," Hamm said Tuesday at a benefit for the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television.

TV is still king of the news

On any given day, more Americans turn to TV for their news (57%) than any other source of media, a rate that has remained largely stable over the past 10 years (59% in 1998). In contrast, the percentage of Americans reading a newspaper on any given day has fallen to 34%, down from 40% just two years ago and down from 48% (a 14-point drop) a decade ago. The share that listened to news on the radio yesterday also has slipped 14 points since 1998, from 49% to 35%. Overall, 29% of Americans say they got news online yesterday, up from 23% in 2006. Most who get news online also got news from TV, radio or a news paper (84%). Just 5% of Americans got their news only from the Web.
