Movies still come on Blu-ray, music is still pressed on vinyl and books still fill store shelves. But as Sony moves to phase out physical PlayStation releases, many gamers are asking why video games should be the first major entertainment medium to go all digital. https://t.co/FagoUG3JVU

Sony remains silent because this was 100% intentional and they were hoping to push it through without us noticing.

Such a scum company.

BREAKING: Star anchor Anderson Cooper QUITS “60 Minutes” as CBS’s new pro-Trump agenda takes hold.

When one of the most respected journalists in America decides he’s had enough, you’d better believe something is rotten behind the scenes.

After nearly two decades of working for both CNN and CBS News' “60 Minutes,” Anderson Cooper is reportedly walking away from his side gig — declining to renew his contract and exiting before the fall season. And it just so happens this shakeup comes as CBS News’ new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, has turned the legendary newsmagazine into a lightning rod for controversy.

Coincidence? Please.

Cooper, who’s been with 60 Minutes since the 2006–2007 season and racked up multiple Emmy wins along the way, will finish out the current season. But sources say he told CBS weeks ago he wanted out. Officially, he’s focusing on CNN and family time. Unofficially? The timing speaks volumes.

Since Weiss’s takeover, 60 Minutes has been mired in MAGA-adjacent drama. In December, she spiked a report on CECOT — the notorious El Salvador prison where the Trump administration sent migrants without due process. The piece had already been promoted by CBS before Weiss yanked it at the last minute. She later claimed it “wasn’t ready.”

Sure.

Then came reports that a Cooper segment scrutinizing Trump’s decision to accept white South African refugees was subjected to “abnormal” levels of editorial scrutiny. Veteran producers were reportedly “exasperated” by the edits.

This isn’t subtle.

For decades, 60 Minutes has been a gold standard of hard-hitting journalism. Now, under leadership widely described as “MAGA-coded,” stories critical of Trump are suddenly getting spiked, sliced, or slow-walked.

And one of its biggest stars is heading for the door.

Cooper’s departure marks the first major on-air exit since Weiss took control. That’s not just a personnel change — it’s a flashing red warning light.

When award-winning journalists with long histories at a network start leaving just as political interference accusations swirl, Americans should pay attention.

If CBS wants to reassure viewers that 60 Minutes remains independent and fearless, losing Anderson Cooper is one strange way to show it.

@The_One_Boom It's not that we don't care. It's that we are tired of playing the same damn game over and over again. Lost all originality and identity after Infinite warfare.

Steven Crowder took out $70,000 in PPP loans during Covid and didn’t repay any of it, even though he was already a millionaire

Put another way, he was happy to pocket the equivalent of 33 years (!!) worth of SNAP benefits from the government

But he draws the line at hungry kids

the chain is not “struggling” — their CEO made $96 million last year.

they’re using megacorporation accounting tricks to make it seem like the business is in trouble in order to strategically fire unionized employees illegally
