My cousin Jeremy, 44, passed away this month just two years after being diagnosed with ALS. People as pure as he was don’t deserve this.

I gave the @ringerwrestling listeners an assignment to make a wrestling version of “82-0” to build a perfect wrestling card and https://t.co/VMuCRjnE19 was made in record time lol
@taylorswift13@toystory I'm sorry, but "being a toy story kid from age 5 to now" is such a weird thing to say for an almost 40-year-old with no children.
The best part of writing Agent Cody Banks was getting Keith David to tell us behind the scenes stories from making The Thing, one of which included the line "And then John Carpenter walked in...MAD AS A MOTHERFUCKER."
"E. Jean Carroll and Christine Blasey Ford were credible and upstanding examples of female empowerment, but this perfectly lucid woman who has politics I disagree with is obviously a liar."
@burackbobby_ idk, Wemby actually shows his personality and wears his heart on his sleeve, whereas Jokic sometimes seems to almost not enjoy playing lol. I think those differing traits go a long way.
Bessent said the Treasury Dept is moving at a "deliberate speed" to establish a strategic bitcoin reserve while continuing to push for passage of a major cryptocurrency market structure bill this summer.

I’ve only worked for 3 companies at 3 radio stations in a 29-year run & had 6 great bosses, & only 2 real crappy ones (both of whom I far outlasted, I would humbly tell you), BUT I do know this:
1. If you tell your immediate superior he/she will never be welcomed by you or other staff…
AND,
2. You accuse that boss’s boss of “murdering” the flagship show of the department….
…THEN get a chance to come back the next day & own just a percentage of blame for a heated moment, & refuse!….
You should be fired & will be fired. Every single time. Without exception.
Every day, people ask me about CBS and parent company Paramount. It happened again just now at an airport in Chicago. There's no avoiding the topic, since Paramount is trying to buy CNN's parent Warner Bros. Discovery.
So let me share what I say when I'm asked. I say CBS News is complicated right now. Paramount's corporate interests make it a lot more complicated. But the journalistic output is strong, and that's what matters most. I say, judge the programming, not the people.
It's fair to be skeptical of the changes Bari Weiss and co. are implementing. It's fair for the press to scrutinize Paramount's cozy relationship with the Trump administration.
But some of the narratives about CBS News in the David and Larry Ellison era are quite frankly out of control.
CBS News has not gone MAGA, despite a flood of progressive claims to that effect.
(I suspect that the people who act like Trump owns CBS now don't watch much CBS. Of course, it doesn't help that some conservative activists talk like CBS is "theirs" now. I doubt they're watching, either.)
The CBS newsroom is still doing what newsrooms do, despite the sometimes deafening noise about Weiss and her overhaul of the network news operation.
But there's a lot of misinformation on social media about what CBS is actually airing and reporting. My humble advice: Watch and read for yourself.
I watched last night's "Evening News," and Tony Dokoupil led with Trump's "retreat" amid backlash to the "anti-weaponization fund." Dokoupil showed video of January 6 rioters storming the Capitol in his tease. He didn't shy away from the latest bad news for the president.
In other words, the reality of CBS News does not match many of the perceptions.
Pointing that out is not a defense of Weiss or a dodge of the mini-scandals and self-inflicted wounds that have piled up in the nine months since Ellison hired her. It's just a statement of fact.
