HORSE FARTS.
@whatthefliptop That’s one way to do it 😂 #horse #horsetok #horsefart #fart #pftt
I said what I said.
Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
Mr. Katy Tur isn’t doing a great job over at CBS News. He is last in the network ratings for his debut week, bringing in a little more than half the viewership of ABC News, and his numbers are 23% lower than the same week a year ago.
He interviewed President Gestapo yesterday who told him to his face that Mr. Katy Tur wouldn’t have a job if Kamala Harris had been elected. (He also failed to push back on any of President Bullshitter’s bullshit, giving him a full 14 minutes to just lie uninterrupted.)
Oh, and now they’re introducing “Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil”? Where he’ll … I don’t know … drink on camera for some reason? Couldn’t make his delivery of the “news” any worse, I suppose. Funny detail about the images below: when Jack Daniels — who, from the mockups appears to be a sponsor of this segment — were contacted, they claimed no awareness of any such thing. HEY BARI WEISS: YOU’RE NOT GOOD AT THIS. RESIGN.
Update — Here is another clearer view of the "Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil" staging at CBS News:

Joe Scarborough accurately reported what Jonathan Ross called Renee Good after he murdered her, and honestly, more media outlets should do the same.
Oh cool: now the regime is searching the homes of reporters who are reporting on them.
Huh! CNN’s Scott Jennings has finally found his line too far for these monsters, and it’s not “extrajudicial murders of dog moms.”
Just going to leave this here for no particular reason.
The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Netflix is now going to make an all-cash offer for Warner Bros. since David Ellison is a spoiled brat who can’t take no for an answer.
You’re not imagining it; streaming services have become outrageously more expensive.
Wait, Chevy Chase HIT Cheri Oteri on Saturday Night Live? YEAH, WELL, THAT’S WHY YOU WEREN’T INVITED BACK FOR THE REUNION, ASSHOLE.
Just finished the number one show on Netflix right now (His & Hers) and let me just say, it’s not “good,” but it is entertaining, and even after having watched a thousand shows and movies like this, I was shocked — SHOCKED! — at who the murderer was. Solid weekend binge. Don’t click on the link unless you want to be BIG spoiled.
The second season of The Hunting Wives will be … hunting more wives … or something. There will be more murder, guys, that’s what I’m trying to say.

People love them some Pluribus (or, more likely, some Vince Gilligan). Still, it’s Apple TV’s most-watched series, which, considering the subject matter, is pretty remarkable.
Sounds like you’ll be getting a third season of Heated Rivalry.
Emilia Clarke has had enough dragons, thankyouverymuch.
The NAACP Image Awards nominees are out.
Kiefer Sutherland got his dumb ass arrested again.
Peaky Blinders inspired Julia Roberts to give TV a chance.
Have a spare $30 million? You could live like the Fresh Prince.
