Ghosh will own a new blog entitled KTV: Korbi TV (http://blog.zap2it.com/korbitv/). In it, she will post daily, sharing with a community of fellow TV fanatics scoops, spoilers and breaking news uncovered during intelligence gathering in Hollywood at industry award shows, events and parties.

Korbi TV will live alongside existing Zap2it blogs including TV Gal, It Happened Last Night, From Inside the Box and show specific guides for "American Idol," "Lost" and "Gossip Girl."

Korbi Ghosh watches as much or more TV than the most avid fanatic and has built a successful career covering what was once just a guilty pleasure. Most recently, she was the "TV Diva in Training" and author of the Korbi's Quickie column for E! Networks. She has also worked at Yahoo! TV hosting their "So You Think You Can Dance" Buzz Sessions.

Just last month, Ghosh broke the story of James Van Der Beek's guest appearance on "How I Met Your Mother" and was the first to report in-depth details of the "Beverly Hills 90210" spin-off, including the producer's interest in casting Jennie Garth to reprise her role as Kelly Taylor. On her jam-packed DVR right now are multiple episodes of "The Office," "30 Rock," "Friday Night Lights," "The Tudors," "Big Love" and "Mad Men."

"TV continues to make me laugh and cry on a regular basis. I couldn't be more geeked up over the opportunity to cover the country's most influential medium for a top-tier entertainment site like Zap2it." said Ghosh.

Brill Bundy, Zap2it Managing Editor, said, "The addition of Korbi to the editorial team at Zap2it.com in Los Angeles is a big one. Her journalistic pedigree is outstanding as is her level of connection and access in Hollywood. We know her blog is certain to resonate with our TV obsessed readers."

Zap2it.com currently reaches an average of 2.2 million unique visitors per month according to Nielsen//NetRatings.
