Got a random call today from TMZ, fishing for freelancers. Said they got my info from Production Hub. Offered me $500 day rate. I explained that my day rate is significantly higher than that, she quickly thanked me and hung up.

I usually just let these things run right off me, but it got me to thinking, how or if they are actually attracting any qualified freelancers for that money.

Montel used to nickel and dime me and then run me ragged, but at least they paid the going day rate.

Any takers for TMZ out there care to comment?
