  • Human rotunda that Trump has selected to closely monitor America's food sounds like quite the generic right-wing radio host

    Donald Trump’s nominee to be the chief scientist for the Department of Agriculture, Sam Clovis, wrote in a 2011 newsletter that progressives, through the public school system, have been “indoctrinating children” with concepts he said are contrary to America’s founding, including environmentalism and racism.

    • Turmoil inside the Wall Street Journal as the newsroom feels the editorial board has gone completely nuts in its devotion to Trump



      There was a similar story about Fox a couple days ago, about how the hard news team at Fox is increasingly dismayed by the opinion side. I'd guess one of the people quoted in it was Shep Smith.

      In contrast with CNN and MSNBC, which aired non-stop rolling coverage throughout the day, Fox News found plenty of time to cover other topics, like the NFL protests, North Korea, and tax reform.


      As the Vanity Fair piece notes, the opinion/infotainment side of Murdoch's media outlets have been completely turned over to Trump worship at this point. Hard news teams, even within the same organization, feel under attack and undermined by their own colleagues. It's as if the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal doesn't read or doesn't believe what their own reporters are writing.

          • Our mail finally arrived, about 5 hrs late, and all the mailboxes on our street are open. Basically the person opened up the mailboxes, shoved in the mail and drove off. Glad it?s not windy.

                      • There is no right thread. Or forum. It camouflages DSL's merciless upbraiding of AA.

                            • Also, Geezer hasn't bought an album since Tommy Dorsey started getting "too commie" for his tastes.
                              heh.

                              The last album I bought was the Beatles album that if you played it backward you supposedly could hear someone whisper "John is Dead". It had the four Beatles crossing a street on the cover. I couldn't hear shit turning the turntable counter-clockwise, and they wouldn't take it back because it turns out that it gouges the plastic to turn it in the wrong direction. Turned out about like my Enron stock.
