What I don’t get about the Switzerland red card situation is the reversed yellow card on the Argentina player was … reversed. Because it was a dive. Why does the ref then need to reciprocate with yellow to Swiss player? There was no yellow card actually to begin with?

Fuck it, Jude Bellingham as the next bond.

I have no reason why I think this but I think Odyssey is going to flop.

The USA’s lack of touch and finesse is remarkable. The defense is atrocious but my god they cannot pass.

So turns out Wemby is just another French asshole. Got it.

Knicks need an enforcer. Someone to step on Wemby’s knee.

Wemby is in trouble. The league is going to be under a lot of pressure to look at that landing zone foul. And it’s a flagrant.

Every single time Shohei gets going, Dave Roberts puts a break on the momentum. Ohtani scorching, naturally take him out for a game, and now his worst performance in a month. It’s crazy, and I think Shohei is getting tired of it.

@brianstelter We get it. You want a job at 60 minutes. You’ve known Nick for 20 years and are friends. Please stop publicly auditioning.

@KenCageRepo What rules were changed? He can pitch 100 as a starting pitcher and hit 55 home runs. Name another player in the last 25 years who even comes close. You can’t. He’s a 4 time consecutive unanimous MVP. 2 time WS. Batting above 300 this year and under 1 ERA. You’re just hating.

[ctrl+alt+delete+fn @control_alt_]

@brianstelter You have a conflict of interest.

[ctrl+alt+delete+fn @control_alt_]

@dlishhhh Your claim is MLB would punish a pitcher who came close to hitting a batter but didn’t, when every night some pitchers hit a batter? Got it.

@GentleDoofus It’s just remarkable how Weiss has 0 actual accomplishment. She has made her entire career on opportunistic grievance laying, all while professing to be the exact opposite. It’s insane.

To understand why people don’t trust media types, Brian Stelter is covering the Bilton/Weiss destruction of CBS while most of the time failing to admit he’s been friends with Bilton for 20 years. You won’t see this disclosure in any recent reporting or tweets…

[ctrl+alt+delete+fn @control_alt_]

@brianstelter Brian- respectfully, you’ve already made clear you have conflicts of interest in this story (I believe you disclaimed in a prior story about your relationship with Nick Bilton) and it’s clear you are angling for an elevated role at CBS or at minimum covering for a friend…

New statement from Scott Pelley:

There has never been anything in America like 60 Minutes.

The Sunday tradition is the most successful program of any kind in history. For more than a decade, its innovative growth on every major online platform has extended its reach to countless millions around the world. This spring, at the end of our 58thseason, 60 Minutes grew rapidly with an unheard-of 9% jump in viewers on CBS.

“60” has been the number-one program in America for decades because our beloved audience finds integrity, quality, and humanity in our stories. When stewardship of the program passed to my colleagues and me, our responsibility was to expand energetically into a new age of media technology while preserving the values our audience expects. Now, the new owner of our network is casting this legend aside, apparently to curry a moment of favor with the Trump administration.

The waste is heartbreaking.

Last month, 60 Minutes lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos.

For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them. Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.

At 60 Minutes, we have fought harder than anyone knows to save the program that became an American icon. We owed that to our millions of viewers. I am deeply moved by the thousands of wishes we have received to “keep up the good fight.” Most of the men and women of CBS News are still in that fight. But now the collapse of values at the top has become untenable. The leadership of 60 Minutes is no longer recognizable. The principles I hold dear are gone, and so I must leave as well.

I depart after 37 years at CBS with one emotion—a heart brimming with gratitude for the men and women of CBS News who encouraged and enriched my work, very often at the risk of their own lives. I pray for a day when those people and their ideals are honored again—a day when sanity, competence, and courage return.

Ohtani is pitching terrible today but it also needs to be said, the Rockies are barely swinging. Ever count is going long because they are letting him load it. Some easy bat on ball in the 3rd 4th or 5th would have changed this outing.

@AlaskaAir and here is the issue. Your text says it was for severe weather but every other flight from sfo to nyc is fine today. If you had to cancel for other reasons, why not just say it?

[ctrl+alt+delete+fn @control_alt_]

@AlaskaAir absolutely crazy to cancel AS20 tomorrow for severe weather. Only airline to cancel sfo to nyc route. Does not seem legit.
