A new kid named Rosie just rolled into Emmy town. Rosie O’Donnell won a Daytime Emmy Award nomination Wednesday in her new role as syndicated daytime talk show host. And she is up against the veterans. Winfrey, whose program has won the Outstanding Talk Show category for two years in a row, has a chance to continue her streak. The show will compete against The Rosie O'Donnell Show, NBC’s Leeza, the syndicated Live With Regis & Kathie Lee and the now-defunct Donahue. Perennial Emmy loser Susan Luc- ci and Genie Francis of General Hos pital were among ABC’s 41 nomi nees. Lucci, whose Erica Kane character appears on All My Children, has been nominated 16 times before and has never won. The award ceremony is May 21. Jump writer nets 9.8 mil from Fox LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ron Shel ton fought city hall — and won. A jury believed Shelton’s claim that 20th Century Fox reneged on its promise to pay him half of the net profits for directing White Men Can't Jump. On Tuesday, the jury awarded him $9.8 million in compensatory damages, but said the studio will not have to pay punitive damages. “Sometimes you have to fight city hall, basically,” Shelton said outside the courtroom. “This is city hall.” Fox spokeswoman Mary Anne Harrison said the studio would ask a judge to set aside the verdict. Failing that, she said, the studio will appeal. Judd says she picks peace over fear SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — Nao mi Judd has found a powerful tool in her battle against a life-threat ening liver disease. “You have fear and you have peace. You get to choose,” the 51- year-old country singer told a Women in Business seminar Tuesday. She said she has learned life is al ways changing, she said she needed to take risks and that peace of mind is her goal. She was diagnosed in 1990 with chronic, active Hepatitis C, which forced her to retire a year later from The Judds duo with daughter Wynonna.
