I can confirm that the reflecting pool is full of algae.

And the Kennedy Center is still covered up because the president is too thin skinned to not see his name on it.

“i’m a failure,” never fails to grab the attention of a great audience like I had lecturing on AI at George Mason this week.

Day 50 of my congressional Bureau being shuttered by @RTCACapitolHill (the TV Networks), so I'm proposing every network set $500 to $1,000 as a minimum day rate for independent contractors:

"The RTCA does not count the payments I've made to my team members this year as proof of part-time employment, yet the Executive Committee has refused to tell me or my legal team what an acceptable payment amount would be for a "freelancer"... Let me propose this: broadcasters in Washington, D.C., should take the lead nationwide and set $500 a day as an acceptable industry-wide day rate. If you and others are willing, I'd even gladly endorse setting $1,000 as the minimum day rate for stringers. Would that satisfy you and your employee on the RTCA Executive Committee?"

Letters just went out to each Radio-TV Gallery Executive Committee member's outlet: @abcnews / @Disney, @NBCNews, @CNN, @MSNOWNews, @NY1, @scrippsnews and @cspan.

In response to my request for an On the Record meeting with @RTCACapitolHill after a month and a half of them illegally shutting my Bureau down, they responded that they'll only meet with me Off the Record.

How dare these TV Networks - @scrippsnews @ABC @Disney @CNN @NBCNews @MSNOWNews demand transparency from a subject ever again.

I'm now demanding to be put in touch with each of their legal departments and their personal lawyers.

NEWS:
Making this letter I sent to @RTCACapitolHill @ReedReports @AllisonMPecorin last year public for the first time, because the TV Networks are now retaliating against my team.

"As you now know, I asked because The LCB intended to use the ‘review’ as an opportunity to raise complaints of being lied to, harassed and bullied by Mr. Mastrian who — according to documents The LCB shared with you — seems to have a history of discriminating against minorities hired by The LCB."

"I turned it off, unfortunately," the US Senate Chaplain tells me of the @nyknicks come-from-behind win. "At halftime, 29 points down, there's no way, no way they'll ever come back from a score like that."
