Never even heard of this woman, but she’s just successfully sued him, he’s furious about it, he knows her husband well enough to describe him favorably and says that’s why he was photographed with her, and he claims to know her cat’s name......

David Zaslav, CEO of WB/Discovery, parent company of CNN, has actually told their management (allegedly) that he wants to see CNN become more like Fox News...for the $$$, of course.

Oh man. I can dream. Stewart definitely wouldn’t be daunted by that POS.

Jon. Stewart.

CNN thinks they can thread the needle for people who are tired of their children no longer talking to them but who still hate all of the drag brunches that are not actually going on in there communities. There is no needle.

CNN is delusional if they think that’ll ever happen. Fox viewers distrust CNN on a primal, visceral level. If there’s any movement away from Fox, it’ll be to farther-right outlets such as Newsmax, OAN, and their ilk.

In the almost eight years that Trump has been in the political arena, the media has learned next to nothing about how to cover him. They continue to embarrass themselves in ways that actively hurt American democracy.

The head of CNN is attempting to siphon off FauxNews viewers...

What the fuck is going on at CNN? They've descended to Chuck Todd levels of journalistic incompetence.

I think people frequently make the mistake of assuming children are just mini adults. They aren’t. Children are exponentially more vulnerable to workplace abuses than adults— and adults are already pretty vulnerable these days.

The fact still stands that in many cases, these kids won’t even be in high school yet (which let’s be clear is no objective marker of the maturity needed to maintain both working, now extended hours, and studying for school).

Tell me that again when your 16 year old daughter is getting her ass pinched and her tits ogled by some 45 year old rednecked Iowa farmer who stopped in at the local brewery to “unwind”.

I’m sure they’re also updating their minimum wage laws to ensure that children are paid exactly the same as adults with the same responsibilities and necessary skills. Right?

I’d argue 50+% of 14 year olds are in middle school

I know that when I’m breaking into a house, I always ring the doorbell 1st. What a fucktard Mr Lester is. I hope he gets the book thrown at him. I hope they use this case to reform the stupid ass laws that enabled it in the 1st place.

This is not shocking at all and is perfectly aligned with other GOP actions and talking points. In just the last week or two, a number of Republicans have justified legislation to ban abortion with ZERO exceptions because the babies will grow up to help fill gaps in the workforce.

It’s about time we returned to the good old days of 1899 when people had more children to put them to work.

“States rights!!” they would scream while also trying to pass a national abortion ban.

I’m dumbounded by how blatantly corrupt, hypocritical, incompassionate, & almost exaggeratedly evil Republicans increasingly are.

I suspect this is a quick “fix” to provide cover for their slaughterhouse buddies/donors recently revealed to be illegally employing children.

THERE IS NO LABOR SHORTAGE, THEY JUST DON’T WANT TO PAY LIVING WAGES
