Today's Cryptoquip Clue: U equals T White House attorney inspires ABC drama LOS ANGELES — Judy Smith was there when White House intern Monica Lewinsky, Chief Justice Clarence Thomas, quarterback Michael Vick and Idaho senator Larry Craig found themselves in the middle of major crises. The attorney and author is a crisis-management expert who's mediated so many high-profile cases — such as the Iran-Contra investigation — her career has inspired the new ABC drama "Scandal." TELEVISION MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE In the series, starring Kerry Washington as the Smith-inspired Olivia Pope, deals with high-profile problems that range from keeping the client list of a Washington D.C. madam under wraps to a scandal surrounding the president. Her tactics are cold, calculated and effective. Smith said dealing with a crisis is a matter of coming up with a good strategy — whether or not it's a popular solution. "At the end of the day, I play to win and otherwise I wouldn't be good at my job," Smith said. "I'm also not a person that sort of talks around an issue." SUDOKU Difficulty Level ★★★ 4/04 TELEVISION PAGE 4 'HIMYM' star to host Tony Awards again AWARD SHOWS LOS ANGELES — Neal Patrick Harris will host Broadway's biggest night for the third time, organizers of the Tony Awards announced on Tuesday. The award show is scheduled to take place June 10 at the Beacon Theatre in New York and will be broadcast live on CBS, with a delay for the West Coast. Harris has proved a popular choice for the Tonys, but will the "How I Met My Mother" actor, who hosted last year's Tonys as well as the 2009 ceremony, be able to reverse the show's declining TV viewport of the last three years? Last year, the tonys faced tough competition from the NBA Finals, which aired on ABC. Chase's voicemail may jeopardize his TV return McClatchy Tribune will be back for a fourth season. But as of this week, it's an even bigger unanswered question whether Chevy Chase will be back MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE the show even if it does return. Chase LOS ANGELS — It's still an unanswered question whether or not NBC's "Community" On the voicemail, posted on TMZ, Chase lets loose with the snow even if it does return. Based on Chase's feelings about show creator Dan Harmon in a voicemail posted on various websites last week, it's apparent that there's not a lot of hugs going around. According to reports, the phone call stemmed from an incident at the show's third season wrap party in which Harmon reportedly dressed Chase down in front of the cast, crew and the actor's wife and daughter. a string of not-safe-for-NBC language describing his talent and his script as "an abomination, and your writing is getting worse and worse." (That's the part that's printable. The rest is available for listen at TMZ, though beware foul language.) "I don't get talked to like that in front of anybody, certainly not in front of my wife and daughter," Chase said. Chase has had more than his share of feuds in the course of his career. There's all the not-so-nice things pretty much anyone associated with "Saturday Night Live" has had to say about him over the years. And there's the infamous Chevy Chase roast that's notable for being one of the meanest events in that institution's long history. But Harmon himself isn't a stranger to behind-the-scenes conflict. As the writer told Marc Maron on his podcast last year, he left "The Sarah Silverman Program" before it ever aired over conflicts with the show's star. The writer spent much time dealing with fans on Twitter taking him to task for his reported wrap party behavior. David Fischer wrote, "Nothing warrants what you did to Chevy in front of his wife and daughter." ROBERT J.
