Could this be the end of Bari Weiss at CBS News?

Instead of a cute animal today, I’m just going to leave this here. IYKYK.

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

60 Minutes’ ratings are not great, down significantly from last season, as are ratings across the board at CBS News, and rumors are starting to float that it might be the end of the Bari Weiss experiment. I suspect this is a lot of wishful thinking from those left behind at CBS News, or even whispers from CBS President Tom Cibrowski’s team. In any event, I’m not going to get my hopes up.

One of the big questions surrounding the Paramount/Warner Bros. merger was who would take over streaming operations: Cindy Holland, who ran Paramount+ and helped build Netflix, or Casey Bloys, who has run HBO for the past ten years? Welp, it seems we have a winner: Holland is out.

Caleb Flynn, a former American Idol contestant, was found guilty of murdering his wife while she slept. Once again, men, I remind you that divorce is always an option.

David Fincher is reportedly not renewing his deal with Netflix. And just like that, the dream of any more Mindhunter just went out the window. ~sob~

The NFL should sue. In college, I made a documentary film about a former NFL player, and we were specifically told we were not allowed to use ANY NFL footage, or we would get into big legal trouble. I don’t understand how or why this is any different.

The guy who “won” the season of The Bachelorette that you will never see has some things to say.

I might have been harsh about the Saturday Night Live season opener hosted by Jalen Brunson, but people tuned in. 

Congratulations, Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse!

Love is dead.
