Global Communication is a perfect way to change the Global Agenda back to a loving and understanding world where we all would be able to love and tolerate each other.

Throwback to when NBC sitcoms made cultural waves, a program that makes clear how talented Justin Spitzer is when it comes to workplace comedies.

Harold Cohen on his computerized art “assistant”:
'Aaron was clearly not a tool in an orthodox sense. It was closer to being a sort of assistant, if the need for an human analogue persists, but not an assistant which could learn what I wanted done by looking at what I did myself, the way any of Rubens' assistants could see perfectly well for themselves what a Rubens painting was supposed to look like. This was not an assistant which could perform any better for having done a thousand drawings, not an assistant which could bring anything approximating to a human cognitive system to bear on the production of drawings intended for human use. A computer program is not a human being. But it IS the case, presumably, that any entity capable of adapting its performance to circumstances which were unpredictable when its performance began exhibits intelligence: whether that entity is human or not. We are living on the crest of a cultural shock-wave of unprecedented proportions, which thrusts a new kind of entity into our world: something less than human, perhaps, but potentially capable of many of the higher intellectual functions - it is too early still to guess HOW many — we have supposed to be uniquely human. We are in the process of coming to terms with the fact that "intelligence" no longer means, uniquely, "human intelligence." '

This sounds like show-boating given the fact that Baier is under contract until 2028. But it also sends an important message to Bari's ultimate boss- Donald Trump- that she's just fine turning a fact- based news outlet in Fox style state media. Read @status.news:
www.status.news/p/bret-baier...
Though he occasionally scrutinizes Donald Trump with flashes of mild skepticism, his program mostly operates within the gravitational pull of the MAGA movement. It regularly features dishonest right-wing pundits who mislead the audience and minimize Trump's unhinged and dangerous behavior. And, perhaps more notably, Baier rarely delivers the sort of unflinching journalism that this moment in American politics demands, such as calling out Trump's lies in plain terms, confronting the erosion of democratic norms, or examining how the chaos unleashed by Trump’s administration continues to destabilize America and the world. In other words, he’s a journalist who can nod to the establishment while sparing Trump and his MAGA movement from serious scrutiny. That hasn’t aligned with traditional CBS News standards, but it would fit neatly within Weiss’ editorial sensibilities. Though she brands herself as a centrist skeptic of both parties, her worldview often overlaps with the cultural fixations and grievances of the MAGA right. Indeed, her anti-woke crusade at The Free Press has framed progressive overreach as the country’s most urgent crisis, while largely treating Trump’s anti-democratic behavior as a secondary concern.
