Ali Louis Bourzgui, for anyone who sees this post out of context. A hell of a speech. Bravo.

Well, I love this kid.
I mean, I actually AM saying it, but for that, you have to subscribe to Premium Mark, which unfortunately involves being married to me.
Sitting here very very much not saying what I think of some of this.
Tonys update: Pink is doing her part to make David Ellison's day worse and I am all for it.
Followup: As I guessed it would, Masters of the Universe flopped, grossing just $29 million in the US. From the @thr.com story: "The biggest age demographic for the weekend was 45- to 54-year-olds." This kind of nostalgia is a niche business that Gen X male execs still think is a mass business.
The second he's called on anything, he collapses like a parade float snagging on a lamppost. Will any other reporter follow up with the same question?
Sorry, this gift link should work. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...
The second story I'm sharing a gift link for is an extraordinary Q&A (his first since the firing) with Scott Pelley, who is poised, detailed, and impassioned, and tells at least one Bari Weiss story that, in a decent media environment, would end her employment. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...
Amid the usual Sunday rage, I want to highlight two great stories (both gift links): The first is Wesley Morris's superb essayistic profile recontextualizing Steven Spielberg (with cameo by yrs. truly). One of the first pieces I've ever read that sounds like him. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...
Nick Bilton: Just a nice, regular, no-agenda guy trying to fend off the rabid beast that is Lesley Stahl.
Tell Her About It.
A good actor. A committed activist. And a person who just needs to learn how to...you know...never speak.
There is no honor in wiping the blood off your chin after a loss that could adversely affect tens of millions of Americans and high-mindedly telling them, "Yes, but at least we have standards." I don't like Platner. If he can be replaced, he should be. But if he can't, OF COURSE he should win!
Yeah, and if we lose one of those, we allow people to get hurt in countless ways.
If Democrats make the strategic calculation that they are better off WITH a disreputable colleague--something Republicans do hourly--I'm fine with that. There's no contradiction in calling Platner utterly unworthy and facing the reality that nothing--NOTHING--is more important than regaining power.
So many of the Platner defenses are "You all need to concentrate on the general type of candidate he is, which is exactly what Democrats need, rather than the specific person he is." History is littered with examples of this not being a great idea.
Daily feels to me like it will quickly get cannibalized with live interviews and special breaking-news editions. I think they'd have a better shot making a weekly show work, but either would be a welcome step away from the talk-radio feel of the lineup.
