This |biography of a living person is mostly |unsourced. I searched for evidence of the subject's having been nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award in the national awards, as the article claims, for E! True Hollywood Story. A search at http://www.emmys.com/award_history_search Emmys.com for "true hollywood story" found that the show was nominated for Emmys in 2001, 2002, and 2003 (not 2000, as claimed in this article), and that the subject was not among the producers listed on the nomination in any of those years. On a separate note, it is misleading to suggest that the most prominent Emmys are the "Los Angeles regional Emmys". As indicated at http://www.emmys.tv/ Emmys.tv, the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences administers both the Primetime Emmy Awards and the Los Angeles Emmy Award|regional Emmy for the Los Angeles area, but they are ''separate'' ceremonies. Winning regional Emmys, if that could be sourced, is a sign of accomplishment within one's profession, but they are of primarily local interest and do not necessarily convey general notability for Wikipedia purposes. On the issue of whether a presidential campaign is notable but a gubernatorial campaign is not -- well, I would say at least that the presidential campaign is significantly ''more'' notable, tends to be discussed in a greater number and variety of reliable sources than a comparable gubernatorial campaign, and thus receives and deserves a larger amount of coverage in an encyclopedia
