The Ls keep piling up for this Justice Department
The Associated PressBREAKING: The Justice Department moves to dismiss a criminal case against the ex-Olympian charged with damaging the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
As someone whose job it is to work with freelancers, this makes me so mad. This industry is difficult enough. Just because someone is not on staff doesn't mean you are free to treat them like shit or ignore them.
Jason BaileyWell, it’s invoicing day, and since they’re really apparently not going to pay me for something I wrote for them two months ago, I guess today is the day to post about how @vulture.com fucks over its film freelancers. Long (sorry) thread, with receipts:
Once a great institution of journalism, the current Post is, sadly, a sinking ship. One can only hope that if it becomes enough of an albatross, Bezos will unload it at a huge loss to someone who actually cares about journalism. If I were writing this story, MacKenzie Scott would buy and revive it.
Adam O’Neal Resigns as Washington Post Opinion EditorAdam O’Neal inherited a mandate from the paper’s owner, Jeff Bezos, to shift toward “personal liberties and free markets.”www.nytimes.comWow. Dude was there a year. His big effort was the "Make it Make Sense" podcast/video production that he hosted that had dozens of views. A massive waste of money that pushed out talent. What a travesty.

The way this is written, it is nearly impossible to tell what is being talked about and what happened. The Storm co-owner confronted two fans with signs essentially supporting anti-trans comments. Go to any women's sporting event in Seattle and you'll know that shit doesn't fly.
Storm co-owner suspended; Sophie Cunningham calls her behavior ‘truly embarrassing’The WNBA suspended Storm minority co-owner Celeste Keaton and fined the team an undisclosed amount following an incident during Tuesday’s game.www.seattletimes.comI edited this fun feature from reporter Sam Fields and got a David Foster Wallace nod into the web headline.
"Never would have expected to be here": Young Mainers consider the lobsterA program in Maine is teaching young people with no previous connections to the lobster business how to get into an industry where the barriers to entry have historically been high.www.marketplace.orgThese dummies. This was one of the best MCU Disney+ shows they've produced so far. It was unique and had a great cast. This character and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II's performance deserve so much more. Boo!
'Wonder Man' Canceled After 1 Season At Disney+Marvel has changed its mind about 'Wonder Man,' canceling the series after one season at Disney+deadline.comThis is the type of mistake a high-schooler makes when they wait until the last minute to do their presentation.
Eric Geller"A US government map of Africa mislabeled every country during a state department presentation at a global conference in Brazil this week, causing a stir among attenders who took screenshots and posted them online."
I love this discourse because it's a bunch of nerds and artists being critical of nerd shit without being assholes about it. Wilson even says Nolan's "Odyssey" is "absolutely" still worth seeing. I long for a world where this is the discourse, instead of the Idiocracy we're living in.
'Odyssey' translator Emily Wilson says Nolan shouldn't have written the movie himselfThe renowned classics scholar caused a stir when her critical review of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey went viral. Wilson explains her reaction to the film and why she's translating the poem again.www.npr.orgThe suspect arrested in the Seattle shooting is 15-years-old.
