Harlan Ellison, who’s told so many horror stories about the indignities suffered by his work on other people’s networks, has finally cut out the middleman and started The Harlan Ellison Channel on YouTube.
The early offerings include installments of the Sci-Fi Buzz commentaries he did for the Sci-Fi Channel in 1993. But don’t call Ellison a sci-fi writer, he warns, or ultaviolence will ensue.

Or what? I think he is a science fictiion writer, but doesn’t want to be called that Ackermanse coining “Sci-fi”.
There is a story, the truth of which I do not know, that in the early days of CNN Harlan walked out of a remote interview during which the chiron labeled him
leaving the director cutting to an empty chair when the reporter turned the conservation to him.
A story so nice it was told twice.
“Sci-fi guy” sounds like a character from The Simpsons.
