Hometowner Louis Susman’s term as ambassador to the Court of St. James in the U.K. may conclude giving way to Anna Wintour, Vogue editor-in-chief, who raised $500k for President Obama. Susman reportedly holds about five social events a week for which some costs come out of his own pocket like many of his predecessors. So, the once revered post nowdays goes to wealthy donors instead of career diplomats. . .Susman once served as attorney to the late Gussie Busch, but was banished by the court of August Busch, III. . .Meanwhile,  Anheuser-Busch has bought four and-a-half minutes of time during the Super Bowl, which comes to more than $16 million.  Bud Black Crown ad will appear in the first slot of commerical break after kickoff; two Black Crown ads will be followed by Bud Light, the Sapphire ad and the Clydesdale ad for Bud Light. . .Applause for 101 ESPN’s midday host Bernie Miklasz, recently honored by the National Sportscasters and Sportswiters Association as “Missouri Sportswriter of the Year” (for the P-D). . .Another late starter:  Sen. Brian Nieves who represents Franklin and west St. Louis county was not present for the opening of legislative session.  Rumored that he was on vacation.
