The Prudential Center has got to have more cameras than the ones we saw.

The YouTube feed kept showing terrible angles at full speed. Awful TV production.
In the arena it was worse. All we got was one bad replay.

Many relationships went far deeper than the occasional cocktail-party photograph. Epstein and Kathryn Ruemmler, the White House counsel under President Barack Obama, swapped 11,300 emails from 2014 to 2019, with at least one direct message on 70% of days. Ariane de Rothschild, a banking billionaire, sent or received 5,500 emails; Larry Summers, a former treasury secretary, 4,300. In some cases Epstein grew close to family members: he was in touch with both Noam Chomsky, a linguist, and his wife, Valeria, and chatted with Soon-Yi Previn, Woody Allen’s wife, more than with Mr Allen himself.
I don't talk to anyone this much

Sitting the rookie goal scoring leader seems like a dumb move. Maybe they were looking to the Americans for advice — the same folks who left Robertson, Caufield and Hutson at home.
we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad
Someone please remind Kenzie she is doing play-by-play, not colour commentary. She was once again surprised by a goal.
Is there supplemental discipline in the Olympics?
Refs are wearing masks — I haven't seen that before. Is that an IIHF thing or IOC thing?
I love moments like this. Guy doing a trick he's never landed before, cause, what the hell, it's the Olympics, then stunned he actually landed it.
Looks like 9 points. Totally doable!
How far ahead is Richard?
Trade Laine for Heineman?
My least favourite bit. So bush league.

News Team, Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier. I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one. We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the story. If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we
have effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient. If the standard for airing a story becomes "the government must agree to be interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state. These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless. CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones.
We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it. When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet. I care too much about this broadcast to watch it be dismantled without a fight. Sharyn
Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
I'm in NY and received a blocking birthdate request.
"there's a new serif in town"
As a card-carrying old lady yelling at clouds on the topic of public wi-fi (and not scaring people about it), excited to see it at the top of this very good list.
Adults deserve safe streets, too.
The platform "barriers" we have in NYC are worse than useless. It's barrier theatre.
Does the first one ban facial recognition, like Dolan uses at MSG? Or is it aimed at government?
Confused/conflicted about the ballot proposals? You're not alone!

Cuomo can say Kościuszko but not Mamdani?
Andrew Cuomo is incapable of speaking clearly and directly about Trump’s authoritarianism.
Anytime NYC DOT cancels a bike lane from now, on the 1st question out of reporters should be "How much did you get bribed?"
This video from Fairmount Bagels in Montreal from their Instagram is the most impressive thing I've ever seen
The new MSNOW backronym is so bad. I wonder what names they *rejected*.
