Superb & eviscerating take on the situation at CBS by John Oliver and @lastweektonight.com. As I’ve noted, the new billionaire owners create a mirrortocracy, pretend it’s a meritocracy & hire a mediocrity to get there. But it is not about innovating & supporting journalism.

At a moment when many are suffering from the fires, I deeply admire the empathic approach to leadership Governor Gavin Newsom has leaned into - always his strength - especially now.

Grateful to have had our paths intersect in October.

Smoke is as dangerous as the flames behind them.
