Exclusive | CBS News taps Adam Rubenstein — once ostracized at NY Times for liking Chick-fil-A — as new deputy editor Sources expect Rubenstein will effectively run the Free Press now that Weiss will be busy steering the editorial direction of shows like “60 Minutes,” “Face The Nation” and …

crazy that one of the most storied institutions in american journalism is going to be run by two people with basically no experience to do it

you know what, feels like the right time to put on GANGS OF NEW YORK
(also: it's always the right time)

the problem with every modern sports phenomena is that Danny McBride already mocked it perfectly with Eastbound and Down, a series completely tapped into the inherent ludicrousness of professional athleticism and pageantry

okay, just discovered that, for now, that Wednesday is OBAA’s last day on IMAX 70mm at Vaughan

being fully replaced by Tron: Ares

so if you were still trying to see the movie on film in Toronto, you’ve got a couple more days

lost track of my number of tears shed and goosebumps experienced during MR. SCORSESE, but it's very very very high

perhaps the biggest story TFPever ran was a catastrophically shoddy argument that George Floyd ackshully died of an overdose. When confronted with irrefutable evidence that the piece was simply wrong, Weiss didn’t take it down, she asked her critic, @radleybalko.bsky.social, to come on a podcast.

Task’s Emilia Jones Tested Her Delco Accent at Wawa Following this week’s episode, the actress explains why Maeve had to make that decision about Sam.

For @vulture.com I talked to Emilia Jones about some of her most intense TASK scenes, dubious casseroles, and what it took to get into character for the show, from the accent to the haircut.

The Ellisons and the rest of the billionaire class don't need the aerodynamic drag of association with fringier right-wing stuff; they want the prestige and lubricity of affiliation with important, elite institutions. That's the value proposition of the Ivy-incubated, Wall Street Journal and New York Times veteran Weiss: obsequiousness to power and capital without any of the wacky stuff, the imprimatur of elite consensus unburdened by any inconvenient commitment to reporting on the business of powerful people. What does this look like in practical terms?

Never do stuff like this, but if any editors I follow want to publish my funny, embarsssing story of meeting Marc Maron when I was 19 years old that easily doubles as a WTF remembrance, please get in touch. It has an arc and everything.

Alloy was a good catalog too though! It walked the line of being cute but not too edgy

I think not Linda, be free
Also Aisha I was Hot Topic coded, naturally

exact same

Okay Aisha now you're hurting me, don't make me miss the OG Delia's more than I already do!

time CultS -d 8 claire's NOTICE OF STORE CLOSURE To Our Valued Customers, This Claire's location has been permanently closed. The decision reflects both external pressures & internal restructuring. In recent months, repeated attacks of ridicule by radical left agitators have gone beyond mere criticism, escalating into a deliberate effort to destabilize our company - conduct we recognize as Domestic Economic Terrorism. At the same time, our transition under new private equity ownership required difficult financial choices. Protecting the stability of shareholders was prioritized, & this store - along with its local workforce - was deemed expendable in service of that obligation. Despite these challenges, Claire's remains committed to our identity as a traditional American company rooted in values of family & community. We will not be silenced by those who attempt to undermine that mission, & we continue to move forward with confidence in our future. Here at Claire's, we look forward to working with the current administration to reinvigorate our brand presence across the United States, ensuring that we remain a part of American life for generations to come. We invite you to continue supporting Claire's by shopping online at www.claires.com Thank you for your attention to this matter. Claire's Stores, Inc. 2400 West Central Road, Hoffman Estates, IL 60192 | Claire's Stores, Inc. | CBI Distributing Corp.

THE RADICAL LEFTISTS HAVE KILLED OUR BUSINESS
[also we got bought out by private equity who shuttered the store and fired everyone]
BUT IT WAS MOSTLY THE RADICAL LEFTISTS
also can we have a federal bailout 🥹

This Frozen Dumpling Hack Is the Lazy Dinner That's 100% Worth the Hype So good, I can’t stop making it.

There are lots of versions online but this is the basic principle, you can add bok choy and ramen noodles

I like fancy mac (box mac and cheese with lots of sauteed veggies and beyond meat folded in), any type of coconut milk and tofu curry (again, throw it all together), and I also love the viral dumpling soup with bok choy, or you could bake in a casserole dish with noodles too

Thank you Linda! And yeah, it's just making the same point over and over again in a tiringly tedious format. Looks pretty though!

I wrote about how #MonsterTheEdGeinStory comes so so so close to giving us a subversive and compelling argument about American hypocrisy re: true crime. But then it just kept going? @vulture.com:

all else aside, it's funny to offer a degree in podcasting at pretty much the exact moment innovative podcasts are no longer getting made.

CBS News staffers are ‘literally freaking out’ about Bari Weiss taking over newsroom EXCLUSIVE: ‘People are using words like depressing and doomsday – feels like some sort of doomsday,’ one source told The Independent about the mood inside CBS News right now.

NEW from me:

Several CBS News staffers and insiders told me that the network "is not a good place now" amid the imminent arrival of Bari Weiss as editor-in-chief, who one source likened to Michael Scott of The Office based on her lack of qualifications.

Hey @govpritzker.illinois.gov - why are state police supporting ICE kidnappings, roughing up and arresting protestors at Broadview? I was under the impression that “if you come for my people you come through me,” but this sure looks like collaboration
