CNN chief Mark Thompson told his reporters to ease up on coverage of the East Wing destruction after a White House visit.

The Trump administration will need to approve any acquisition of CNN parent Warner Bros. Discovery, so the knees are already bending.

Our work on the ARTE/Storyvolution documentary explored this endless controversy.
A big thanks to Tony McMahon for helping us dive into the scientific & historical evidence on both sides!

Kirk is not a modern day St. Paul, despite what Cardinal Dolan says. The only thing that such myth-making achieves is fomenting resentment, curtailing dialogue, and stifling action to otherwise prevent this tragedy from happening again, says John Grosso.
Cardinal Dolan calls the late Charlie Kirk 'a modern day St. Paul.' I'm not making this up.
Cardinal Dolan joins the Catholic right's ever growing quest to lionize the late Charlie Kirk as a Christian martyr.

Robert Redford (1936-2025) should be remembered as much for his social conscience as for his talents as a storyteller.

This 1976 interview about ALL THE PRESIDENT’S MEN is a sobering reminder of what we’ve lost. #RobertRedford #FilmSky

Just watched the new Thurgood Marshall documentary on PBS Passport and it's an eye-opener.

It's exactly what this administration doesn’t want us to know, and a good reminder of why supporting PBS is more vital than ever. #PBS #ThurgoodMarshall
