Stephen Colbert Talarico interview cut stinks of censorship | Opinion Stephen Colbert says CBS prevented Texas State Representative James Talarico from appearing on "Late Show." But it still aired on YouTube. Here's why.

ICYMI: I wrote about the shunted-to-YouTube would-be Colbert interview with Talarico. It's messy and it really makes me curious how the next three months are going to play out for Colbert and the show.

I thought the faith discussion (which obviously had some political overtones) was the most interesting part of it.

CBS is really leading the charge for knuckling under. I wrote about the latest disappointment, which involves Colbert and (only on YouTube) Talarico.

Only in Arizona could the Nancy Guthrie story unfold like this The disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, mother of "Today" host Savannah Guthrie, has made headlines worldwide. But it still feels like an Arizona story.

On this week's Valley 101 by @azcentral.com Richard Ruelas and I talk about Nancy Guthrie's disappearance, and why it's such a uniquely Arizona story.

Robert Duvall movies are odes to his brilliance. These are his 5 best Robert Duvall, who died Feb. 15, was one of the great actors in film history. His best movies include "Godfather" films and one with his best quotes.

I was in line to see 'Get Low' at the Toronto Film Festival when a publicist asked if I had time to meet Mr. Duvall in the bar afterwards. Yes, I can squeeze that in. We talked about ... BBQ.
I tried the impossible and made a list of 5 of his best movies. RIP.

I love the #olympics so much that often, even if I have watched live during the day, I’ll watch the repeat during prime time.
Not tonight. Man. I can’t watch that again. Just crushing.

We're desperate for Nancy Guthrie news. But at what cost? | Opinion The disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, mother of "Today" co-host Savannah Guthrie, is a constant alert, yet slow-moving story. Why it's making us crazy.

ICMYI: I wrote about the hurry-up-and-wait feeling surrounding the Nancy Guthrie case. Investigations take time. So does credible reporting. But it's still hard not to be frustrated.

Pam Bondi's House hearing was so bad, Fox News cut away | Opinion U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi defended Donald Trump and avoided Epstein files questions during a bizarre hearing before the Justice Department.

ICYMI: I wrote about Pam Bondi's hearing yesterday. Honestly, if my kids had behaved this way when they were little I would have sent them to time out. But she's a MAGA hero. Go figure.

Last year I wrote that RFK Jr.'s appearance before the Judiciary Committee was the craziest I'd ever seen.

I stand corrected.

Pam Bondi takes the throne, such as it is. What a bizarre world we're living in. Have a look:

Wild Super Bowl ratings are in. Turns out, Bad Bunny won big | Opinion Super Bowl 60 was the second-highest-rated ever. Bad Bunny's halftime show was too. Seems like the NFL is on to something, despite Trump's bluster.

Super Bowl ratings are in (for real this time). And they're huge - the halftime show, too.

Donald Trump tweet from 2010: “Melania and I saw American Idiot on Broadway last night and it was great. An amazing theatrical experience!”

Your periodic reminder

I don’t know all the football in the world but it is my considered opinion that the Patriots will have to score at some point if they hope to win.

Happy birthday to my mom, a genuinely unique person. As in, she was a blast.

Trump's racist Obama post is sick. Denial isn't an apology | Opinion Donald Trump shared a racist video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes. The White House defended it, deleted it and then blamed someone else.

ICYMI: I wrote about Trump sharing a racist post but wait he blamed his staff but wait MAGA is defending him anyway. Whatever. I wrote about a big fat mess.

Blaming someone else after defending the post is about as on-brand as it gets for this bunch. This is particularly disgusting. Can anything ever be too much for MAGA? I wrote about it:

Thank you!

'Melania' is a terrible movie and a waste of time and money "Melania," Brett Ratner's documentary about first lady Melania Trump, is a terrible movie. Donald Trump loves it. So, then, will his MAGA followers.

This was in the paper today. You can imagine how popular this made me in certain circles. Yes, the movie made some money. No, that doesn't make it a better movie. It's awful. You can read my review in the comments.

Hard-boiled eggs are Arizona's favorite healthy Super Bowl snack. Huh? Arizona's favorite Super Bowl snacks include quesadillas, queso and hard-boiled eggs. Eggs? On the bright side, at least it's not seven-layer dip.

Hard-boiled eggs? That haven’t been turned into deviled eggs? I wrote about Arizona’s supposedly weird taste in Super Bowl snacks.

Surprise, Trump agreed to Super Bowl interview. How to watch | Opinion Donald Trump will do a Super Bowl 60 interview with NBC's Tom Llamas. It's a bit of a surprise. Here's when and where to watch it.

Trump will sit for a Super Bowl interview on the network he has routinely trashed. Wait, that's all of them. NBC, I mean. I wrote about it here:

I wrote about why everyone is so captivated by Nancy Guthrie's disappearance. Of course Savannah's fame has something to do with it. It's a different fame - she's TV morning show famous.
