Pat Robertson Was Many Things. But, Believe Me, He Was No Saint
Pat Robertson’s mission on Earth ended yesterday, passing at the age of 93, a significant enough event to trigger multiple alerts from both mainstream news and media-specific sites. As Deadline’s Ted Johnson dutifully reported, his legacy organization issued this succinct release: The Christian Broadcasting Network, the enterprise he created from a Virginia TV station, announced
Licht Been Ein Beginner!
So Chris Licht is now the latest, and arguably one of the most deserving, ex-employee of those who have attempted to do the bidding of Yosemite Zas, whisked out of the presidency and CEO position of CNN mere days after a scathing, lengthy profile in THE ATLANTIC revealed that not only was he well aware
We’ll All Go On LIV-ing. Like It Or Not.
The shock waves that echoed through the sports world that soon spread beyond yesterday when the PGA and LIV golf tours announced they were merging were significant. The New York Post’s Jenna Lemoncelli succinctly recapped the key talking points in an article yesterday for anyone late to this particular tee time: PGA Tour and LIV

I was first introduced to them when I worked for Turner and when I’d visit their headquarters at CNN Center–the building they vacated for good earlier this week–the locals would revel
Bee-Ing The First. And Best.
Yesterday was National Game Show Day, a fact I couldn’t avoid on my social media feeds, as way too many people I’ve known and loved did numerous heartfelt posts, putting their own special imprenteur on Throwback Thursday. I figured they deserved the entire spotlight and didn’t want to post my own story; besides, plenty of
When You’re At The End Of Your Rope, You Can’t Let Go Of A Lasso
So in a week where numerous beloved series reached their endings (a week that just happened to coincide with the end of the Emmy eligibility period), it appears from all credible sources that Apple TV+’s TED LASSO is also on that list, ending a three-season run that despite what many of its fans contended was
