ABC News, Senior Executive Producer of Special Events

[Variety @Variety]

Katie Couric says that corporate media today is a "real problem":

"Whether we’re talking about ABC paying $15 million to the Trump library on what should have been an on-air correction by George Stephanopoulos or CBS paying $16 million from what almost every legal expert said was a specious lawsuit about the editing of the Kamala Harris interview [on '60 Minutes']. That was obviously because they wanted the [Paramount/Skydance] merger to go through, and it was so obvious. That, to me, is a real issue in in media today, and I found that really deplorable. That level of capitulation was just incredibly disappointing to me."

Trump has discussed firing Bondi as he grows frustrated with her handling of the Epstein files and failure to be more aggressive in prosecuting his political foes. Trump has floated the idea of replacing her with Lee Zeldin, the EPA chief. @tylerpager https://t.co/P1sWHmmIRR

President Trump says he’s glad Robert Mueller is dead:

Sheriff Nanos told Fox News that the DNA sample in the Nancy Guthrie case was run through CODIS and did not return a match.

He also said the unknown DNA from inside the home does not match the DNA found on a glove believed to be similar to one worn by the suspect in the doorbell video.

FBI has confirmed the sheriff’s statement.

Today's eclipse coverage is a testament to the enduring POWER of TV news. The best views of totality won't come from TikTok or Twitch – they'll be supplied by old-school networks with the infrastructure and equipment and talent and $$$ to transport you there live.

[Marc Burstein @MarcBurstein]

Will be watching, Brian. As one of those nerds responsible, I want to add abc 2000 didn’t just air for 24 continuous hours but was anchored by the incomparable Peter Jennings for the entire time with one incredible team of producers and technicians around the world!

[Brian Stelter @brianstelter]

Fellow TV news nerds might remember ABC 2000 Today — a nearly twenty four hour telecast showing Y2K in every time zone. It was incredible. I wish it was on every year. And now, it sort of is >>>

Could Brian Cashman really get a new four year deal without first closing on Aaron Judge? Judge could still walk and Cashman gets a new deal?! Seriously?
