It's like they think they're a real news orgaizarrion?
Acclaimed banjoist Béla Fleck is pulling out of three Kennedy Center concerts, joining a growing number of musicians canceling events after the board voted to add President Trump’s name to the venue.
All the Kennedy Center cancellations since Trump’s name was added
“Wicked” composer Stephen Schwartz is one of the most high-profile artists to have backed out of an event since the center’s name change.

The best description I ever heard of News Corp was from a Murdoch biographer who called it a kind of free-floating state television which various regimes could contract with to provide propaganda. The new CBS is actually lower than that, even.
A CBS News staffer told me this after Tony Dokoupil kicked off his CBS Evening News tenure tonight with a lengthy Pete Hegseth interview:
"If this is what Bari and Tony’s CBS Evening News is going to look like, then the we may as well just call ourselves Trump Administration State TV. Pathetic."

The conservative mind has been ruled for a generation by the fantasy of a brilliant, principled liberal who is led by the spirit of honest inquiry to a humble, weeping conversion to conservatism. And since that has never happened in reality, they have to pay each other to perform it for them.

Hey now, My iTunes folder still contains over 2,000 downloads from the original Napster!
[Grandpa Simpson voice] it's like when there were all those freeloaders on Napster, taking files that other people downloaded without uploading any of their own.
Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to go photocopy some Bitcoins, because my son is sure that's how that works. [/Grandpa Simpson]
