“because she’s lip-syncing and thus relies on his audio for part of her accuracy score.”

That is more likely a Jezebel thing depending on the writer. Splinter would have definitely done that already.

Can’t wait for the io9 or AV Club article saying how they’re all tired of this and how empty a gesture this is because Biden isn’t a Progressive-progressive and isn’t Bernie Sanders, with the implication that it’s better not to vote at all.

Yeah, it’s idiotic to attack NBC for this when Guthrie actually threw him some hardballs and the night probably damaged him. 

It’s bewildering. It’s not like denying him the town hall prevents Trump from getting any attention for a day. He’d just tweet something awful and that would be the story. Instead the story for a few days was about how unprepared he was to answer basic questions, how he failed to disavow the belief that Dems are part…

“let NBC off the hook”

...let NBC off the hook?

It’s extremely unprofessional for a newscaster to appear in a movie/tv-show/whatever in their on-the-air persona without informing their employer.

Thank you. You articulated incredibly well what I was feeling but couldn’t put into words.

Look...Ian...I mean this in the nicest way possible, and I say this as a fellow progressive who has tried to get people to vote for Bernie twice in a row, and this isn’t directed at you specifically but at the group you are currently representing with this article...but please, shut the fuck up.

Yeah.. I understand this isn’t as progressive as many on the left would prefer, but to say it’s “very little substance” is just a gross misuse of that phrase — it’s incredibly substantial, with concrete policy goals and figures.

Oh, for... This is a ridiculous article.

The Biden campaign made a cheery and silly Animal Crossing island. It’s neat. It will change few minds (and it shouldn’t) but it’s a nice, silly diversion.

I’m sorry you’re tired (we all are, because Holy Shit this administration) but this whole article is like a festival of…

“Much like Biden’s presidential platform, there’s very little substance here”

It’s not like she was binding her time, waiting for the best moment to join... Actors get hired on shows deep into its run. It’s how it is.

“‘Dear Sarah Jeffery, I honestly had no idea who you were til you tweeted [...] I have been too busy fighting monsters & fighting for a massive cultural reset to notice who is in the reboot.’”

Hahaha how fucked does your point of view have to be when Shannen fucking Doherty is the voice of reason?

It is a bit ironic that Rose “I’m woker than you” McGowan is suddenly on the wrong end of a battle over what’s problematic.

Rose McGowan is the personification of Old Faithful. If she goes x-amount of days without being in the news, she picks some celebrity to try and create some drama with. I haven’t done the math, but I’m sure the clockwork of her fuming...fuming...fuming....explode! has a pretty fair regularility to it by this point.

This entire episode has shattered all the fond memories I have of the original “Charmed”...like that time I watched it for thirty seconds while channel surfing.

I’m sick of everything getting ‘rebooted’ just to make bank off the name recognition, myself, (I’m looking at you, ‘Macgyver’) but the original ‘Charmed’ was not exactly an adaptation of a Henry James novella.
