So we have a sexual predator actor who thinks he’s President and a President who thinks he’s starring in “Empire”.....we really might be living in some kind of Matrix.

You left out judging people of 40-50 years ago by today’s standards, another favorite thing people like to do now. Not only were women expected to have children and birth control much harder to get, but people were expected to marry young because sex was taboo. That led to a lot of bad first marriages. Mental health

Bobby, as usual, you’ve done a masterful job of pointing out the specific reasons why Jumpin’ Jack Flash blew my hair back when I saw it long ago. It was so subversive while pretending to be just audacious good fun. Trying to figure out the lyrics to the song - a great scene! Whoopi undercover, so hilarious in a way

My point is not whether he’s stunning or not, or a fascinating actor - it’s that the way they use him is to make him look almost comical, demeaning him in order to make Weatherly the “hottie.” If you look at the range of photos of Rodriguez available on the web, contrasted to his photos from Bull, it’s clear that they

At this point, wouldn’t it be easier to publish the names of priests who HAVEN’T been found to be pedophiles?  Seems like it would be a short list.

Agree that his headlining his own show may have unleashed his behavior on set.  I just realized that one of the reasons I couldn’t get through a whole episode of Bull was that I can’t stomach that much of him.  He was better as a bit player in a large ensemble who largely provided comic relief while the others acted

They might as well have all ended their tweets with, “Hope to work with you again, CBS! Call me!”

Weatherly got a DUI not too long ago. Was that before or after this situation? It almost sounds as though he wasn’t sober on set?

One thing that becomes clear when you read about his romantic history is that he has a history of hooking up with talented, intelligent, strong women who had promising or successful careers before him - and then they get left for someone else (because clearly, it’s THEM), and they are often made to look like kooks, or

My ex-husband claimed that this is a well-known male turnoff (including for him) and that’s why Woody Allen always had the female characters he didn’t like eating on camera. So yeah - men with fragile egos and sexual hang-ups who don’t think women are people or should have appetites and enjoy life.

How do you know she DIDN’T swoon over the chapel while also wanting her guests to be comfortable, which is a laudable trait? I think you arealso imagining that there is some way for MM to know what is going to send the members of The Firm around the bend before it happens. It’s been reported elsewhere that Kate had

This. When they leaked a story about air fresheners, this is the first thing I thought. Imagine! The horror! You can hear them snickering down their narrow noses about Meghan’s California-ish request, just as they tittered behind Kate’s back, “Doors to manual!” to make fun of the fact that her mother was a stewardess.

I’m glad someone has called bollocks on Piers Morgan’s hissy fit.  At this point, he seems like a stalker utilizing whatever power he has to simply Not.Leave.Her.Alone.  Most women have someone like this in their past, especially if they were in the public eye, but Morgan’s behavior really has taken it to a new

I think THIS is the Goldie Hawn/Lily Tomlin/Jane Fonda reboot we’ve all be waiting to see.

I’ve long thought that NOT having single payer ala Canada is actually the way Big Business in America keeps people from becoming entrepreneurs.  It’s difficult to go out on your own anyway, and when you have to do it without insurance, or with Obamacare premiums you can’t afford, guess what?  You have to keep working

Ugh. So sorry that happened to both of you.

Now if only we could get them to start a R.I.P. Education Debt. One of the biggest difficulties I have in the holiday season is watching my elderly relatives, who benefited from free tuition and low-cost housing loans, celebrate with yet another cruise while their Baby Boomer children buy more stuff they don’t need.

That could be true in many circumstances but at work, I think it falls to the person with the least power in terms of hierarchy and position. Chiefly, that’s women. Just this week, I was expected to manage emotions as an overpromoted white man at work treated me, in front of three other women, with derision that

This.  Not to mention the fact that the time it takes to relentlessly read multiple Twitter feeds, and respond with tweets, and read websites to have things to tweet about - all that takes time the people used to use to read.  Hiring people based on how they contribute to actually shrinking your market over the long

I would have read this column just because it was by Bobby Finger, even if it was about Julia Roberts making her Serious Actress face.  I doubt I’ll watch her show but it does convince me to seek out the podcast as a fan of Schwimmer’s.  More, please, Bobby!
