Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
Warner Bros. Discovery is scrapping plans to launch a premium sports tier on Max, leaving their sports programming in their standard and premium levels. For now.
99 MSNBC writers are slated to lose their jobs, including all of Rachel Maddow’s writers, except for several head producers. Not great, Bob.
Andy Cohen wants you to know that no decisions about the cast of The Real Housewives of New Jersey have been made and everything you might have heard is a lie.
Bachelor in Paradise might be moving to Puerto Rico or the Dominican Republic. Maybe.
Carrie Coon just is either in an open marriage with her husband Tracy Letts, or not, who knows, and frankly, I’m not sure why she made this any of our business.
I’m not sure I needed Chris Pratt’s thoughts on his brother-in-law’s anatomy — but in case you did.
Ayo Edebiri is going to write and star in a Barney the Dinosaur movie for A24 and no, that is not a Mad Libs.
Another Real Housewife, another jail term.
Happy 90th birthday, Sally Jessy Raphael! I have to admit, I didn’t realize you were still with us!
PolUGHtics
The fight with the AP continues: earlier this week, a judge declined to restore the AP’s immediate access to the White House ahead of a trial date. However, the judge did say that the White House choosing to exclude the AP from the White House pool was “problematic” because the ban was based on the AP’s content — viewpoint discrimination — which is prohibited by the First Amendment.
The judge then basically told the White House how to get around this, by pointing out that by allowing the White House Correspondents Association determine who should be in the pool, they’ve accepted the WHCA’s role as a referee in this dispute. So, the White House has decided that to fix this little problem, they will decide who will be in the White House press pool from here on out. Terrific!
But hey, it’s the kind of move that Vladimir Putin would be proud of — you know, the guy who President Boot-Licker refused to call a dictator and whom we officially refuse to blame for the Ukraine invasion. It’s all cool. Everything is great.
In other supercool news, Jeff Bezos has announced that the Washington Post‘s opinion page will not focus on the “defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets.” So basically, he is using the Post to push his weird techno-feudalism beliefs.
In some good news, 21 DOGE employees resigned en masse refusing to “jeopardize Americans’ sensitive data.” The numbers aren’t numbering. And judges are ruling against the administration for how it’s implementing DOGE.
Oh, and this is a real thing that the President of the United States posted on his social media.
Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.
Trump Gaza looks pretty woke to me!

My first boss in Hollywood said the script for STAR TREK was the best he’d ever read — and he wasn’t kidding. Roberto Orci was a generational screenwriting talent and his death at only 51 is a tragic loss, because I’m sure there were more masterworks to come.
