Trump, in his post about Ted Turner's death, claims that "woke" was "everything that he is not all about."
Yes, the same Ted Turner who was married to Jane Fonda, wanted universal healthcare, was a staunch environmentalist, called pro-lifers "bozos," and accused Israel of terror against Palestine.
Most of you will hate this, but Turner inventing CNN was a legacy accomplishment and a net positive; he was one of the first people to understand that the world was too big and moved too fast for people to wait for a brief summary of events on the 6:30 p.m. news.
Malone loves power; I don't think he loves the spotlight.
The most damning thing I can say is that Turner's direct media-cultural heirs are David Zaslav and Jeff Bezos. That's not his fault, but also, it kind of is.
Ted Turner had an instinct for mergers, a lot of charm, an inhuman level of self-confidence, AND a wildly overinflated sense of what he could pull off, and if I were to pick a single deal that represented all of those qualities, it would be "I think I can turn Jane Fonda into a trophy wife."
I'm so old I remember when Ted Turner was America's big media-titan villain. RIP.
Father Flynn: Where's your uncensored take on today's Tony nominations?
Sister Aloysius (icily): Nowhere YOU can get at it.
Tell them about the time you identified a picture of a giraffe--they will be dazzled!
I can think of one thing that would get a lot of people off of them
Thanks very much!
It's all I ask.

Just gonna keep saying it: Drastic SCOTUS reform should be a central part of the 2028 Democratic Party platform, and for Presidential candidates...I don't love litmus tests, but for me, this is becoming one.
Yes, if there's one thing it's unfair to do, it's to judge what people wear to the Met Gala.
Looks like a board game with a 16-page rulebook.

I took some time out from writing a book to read one! I got asked to write about John of John, the new novel by Douglas Stuart (Booker winner for Shuggie Bain). I almost fled before p. 1 (for reasons detailed below)--but it's wonderful, and very much worth your time. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/04/b...
