There has never in the 75-year history of network news been someone who has done a worse job than Bari Weiss at CBS News. It's one thing to have no integrity, ability, or self-awareness; to add reprehensible politics and a skill for finding like-minded minions is breathtaking.

But it's a lead, don't you think?
Not all stories are summarizable in a headline or a blurb--neither of which writers control. All of us who do this are used to our work getting trashed unread, or dismissed, or mischaracterized. Forgive me when I say that to stay sane, we have to care only about those who bother to read what we do.
Just going to reiterate that this story is sharp, thoughtful, appropriately funny and appropriately disdainful-alarmed-disgusted. A number of people here seem to need a depiction-is-not-endorsement refresher course.
Just saw The Christophers tonight and I loved it--Soderbergh working in the service of an exceptionally sharp, witty, original, adult screenplay by Ed Solomon and performances by Ian McKellen (spectacular!) and Michaela Coel that, like the script, deserve to be remembered at year's end. Do not miss.
And fucking lazy.
Sincere question for you: Do you have any faith at all that this will be the last set of "Uh-oh" headlines about this guy between now and November?
I'd hate to see your definition of "a lot." To me, a Totenkopf tattoo, a sexting scandal, and a basement-dweller's Reddit history qualifies. The people who are pissed off about this want the same win you do. They're also sick of "authenticity" being used to justify inadequacy. He was a bad call.
If anyone would like to interview me about the awards I haven't won, I wish to announce that I am available.
Glumly realizing that I would actually like Trump to continue to be alive until the midterms, just to avoid the utter avalanche of "in fairness" and "Clean slate" and "He's slowly proving to be his own man" and "Fresh start" and "Benefit of the doubt" with which the media would lube his successor.
I believe that a lot of them are hardcore pragmatists, which at this point...fine. But a large percentage of would-be Democratic kingmakers love "authenticity" when it comes to straight white dudes with no impulse control, and in anyone else, frown that they're not "meeting people where they are."
Don’t worry, this will definitely be the last piece of unwelcome news about him. No more problems for sure!
Peak 1992 style and hotness! I love every second.
Actually, telling me with zero knowledge how I have been blinded by hatred is the definition of bad faith. Let's stop now because I don't have time to give you a crash course in a subject I have covered for forty years, and if I see the word bro again I cannot be held responsible for what follows.☮️
Not really in need of a history lesson on this, or of bad-faith replies about my tastes, thanks. If I didn't think something was interesting, I wouldn't be posting.
I'm not sure what your point is. A24 is everything traditional studios are not, and $10 million is pennies.
Yeah, and I've written about the "other" 1970s Hollywood--the one full of a more successful version of traditional studio product. But that doesn't mean nothing important changed, or that nothing important is changing now.
One thing to look for this summer is that when something traditional and franchisey connects in a big way--say, Toy Story, Spider-Man (but not, we now know, Star Wars), the "Hollywood's back, baby!" noise in the trade press is going to be loud, maybe too insistent. And you know...I guess we'll see.
