I don't know. He still seems pretty moderate to me. Looking at his Twitter, just in the past week he's pissed off liberals by saying Handmaid's Tale was a shitty book and pissed off conservatives by saying ESPN has no political bias.

Pretty sure Hulu's having their upfront today, so they're making some new announcement every five minutes. AV Club's making each announcement its own story because reasons.
How much do you like her? Is there, perhaps, anything that you do every time you see Anne Hathaway?
Could there be people out there for whom ESPN was the one thing keeping them from cancelling their cable who finally reached a breaking point on what they saw as increased political content? Sure, I’d even go as far as to say it’s pretty likely that these hypothetical people exist to some extent.
The amusing thing about the Good Girls Revolt fiasco was how the creators were able to turn the "We'll never release ratings" motto of streaming platforms to their advantage. If you just get to arbitrarily declare your shows hits without releasing evidence, then there's no real way to counteract the creators of a…
However low his probability of making a contested three might’ve been, it would’ve been higher than the near-zero chance of tying the game he left them with when he allowed the Raptors to get the ball back with the lead and almost no time left.
Look up the casts of the final few Garry Marshall movies, and you'll find pretty much all the 70s disaster movie equivalents.
I can’t believe he drove to the hoop. “Going for the quick 2" only makes sense if you don’t spend ten seconds dribbling around the three point line prior to doing it. Did he think there was more time on the clock?
My God, it just gets worse.
That's interesting. I would've thought people unfamiliar with Unbreakable would just assume it's a Nick Fury style cameo and walk away thinking there'd a sequel with Bruce Willis.
I’ve seen some of them (such as the National Review) make some variation this argument: “Granted, these layoffs were going to happen no matter what and they’re almost entirely due to structural flaws in the industry, but they’re politics made it happen faster.”
Pattern so far seems to be that they’re going after regional reporters (both pro and college sports) and hockey.
Not all that surprising though. Someone of her experience was almost certainly getting paid way more than the job “ESPN2 daytime sportscenter anchor” entailed.
Will this one finally give us a "Pterodactyls vs. Fighter Jets" action sequence? Because otherwise, what's the point?
Robert Smigel directing his first movie is an objectively good thing.
"More recently, they’ve been working on TV series like Billions and The Affair, experience Variety says was pivotal to them landing the Captain Marvel gig."
It’s such a weird thing to get worked up about. A man who has been a semi-regular presence on the channel for the past few years will continue to be, only in a somewhat more official capacity.
Withholding the director's name until the end is pretty standard for any movie that forgoes the standard opening credits.
"Sandler himself is no stranger to this land, pairing himself with a number of decade-plus-younger starlets over the years."
