The Oscar nominations are in, meaning some studios are primed for a major boost at the box office. Bossip's Jennifer Cunningham joins Cheddar to discuss which films stand to gain the most from being honored by the Academy. She says the smaller films that came out later in the year plan their marketing campaigns around hopefully being nominated. Funny or Die announced another round of layoffs. Cunningham says the news comes as digital media companies are coping with a changing landscape led by Facebook and Google. While the exact number of people affected has not been released, it's clear the once-dominant digital media players are facing tough times. Kylie Jenner reportedly wants to become a mommy blogger when she returns to social media. Cunningham says the move could be a lucrative one for the reality star. Finally, we discuss The Weinstein Company moving closer to a potential sale to an investment group led by former Obama-Administration official Maria Contreras-Sweet.
