Men just realizing why women walk around so enraged all the time is hilarious.
So the occupant of our White House is cool with pedophilia and we’re just going to carry on like everything is normal?

I don't know what it is about Sunday Night Football, but my screen is constantly frozen. I don't think it's been smooth watching since the games moved to Peacock.

I'm not one of those people who thinks you have to go to journalism school to be a good reporter, but if you're going to hire people without journalism backgrounds, you should at least make sure they understand their ethical obligations to their outlet and the public.

“Danielle Rhoades Ha, a spokesperson for the New York Times, declined to respond to questions on the tips about Trump passed from Epstein to Thomas.”

I’ll bet he did.

What’s the deal with @thehill.com?

Here’s the lede of an Op-Ed and, setting aside, whether I think it’s actually unconstitutional, it’s not unconstitutional, according to the courts, to subpoena someone’s cell phone logs in an ongoing investigation.

But this piece claims it as a fact.

Counterpoint: Having facts at hand to confront your interview subject with if they say things that aren’t true is actually called “journalism.”

When we stopped doing this, I’m not sure, but I’d kill to see Mike Wallace interview these guys.
Karl ambushed him. He had that diagram all ready to go when Hassett spouted nonsense. That's an elegant way to call bullshit on a bullshitter who ought to be shunned by everyone in the economics profession.

Hassett is a complete and utter hack.

Erin Andrews falling all over herself to compliment Tom Brady for knowing a relevant fact about the game he’s supposed to be analyzing. 🙄

It’s absolutely crazy the way companies have cut employees and resources to the bone while exponentially expanding pay for their C-suite execs.

“We have to offer those salaries to be competitive and hire real talent.”

I promise you there are people who could do the same job for much, much less.
Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Saudi Arabia has jailed multiple women for espousing feminist views on social media since 2020.
This coming week, Trump will host Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi leader who approved the murder and dismemberment of U.S.-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Not coincidentally, the Saudis are working on a new business deal with the Trump Organization.
It's blood money – or bonesaw money.

For many people, journalism is still a public service and a calling, not just a way to work your way into elite circles. Many of those people have been pushed out of the industry for caring about ethical reporting instead if Google rankings and clicks.

Find THOSE people and support them.
It is true that there are many good journalists doing valuable work at places like the NY Times. It's *also* true that there are major systemic issues at these papers, including leadership. You can't fault readers for taking larger institutional problems into account when judging an outlet's work.
What I know is there are still great journalists - even at elite media outlets - who are doing good work. Adopting a knee-jerk cynicism about all they do abandons those journalists. And it's lazy. And it plays into hands of authoritarians who WANT people to distrust all fact-based journalism.

The most amazing thing about these comments is that the other person in the interview just sits there as if the person defending sex with children said something completely normal.
Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.
