of course there's a twist. it's called majors has a lawyer.

he's done.

No, I'm specifically commenting on the TMZ report. I do think he's likely done as well. Especially since more women have reportedly come forward and are working with the Manhattan DA's office.

Again

Every person who has access to actual information on this is dropping ties with him. Disney is clearly looking to replace him. The only actual evidence available is extremely damning for Majors, ESPECIALLY the fact that he thought those texts made him look good.

It's perfectly reasonable to judge Majors as an abuser at this po8nt until he actually provides evidence otherwise. Not just claims it exists.

TMZ reportedly got access to documents including the driver's testimony as well as the video, apparently. I'm not making a claim that Majors isn't an abuser here. I'm just commenting on the twist.

I really should have done this a long time ago. I should have put more time into making a decision.

Meanwhile there's actual hard evidence we can actually see that paints Majors in the worst popular light and zero evidence actually being presented in his favor.

If they had anything better than we've seen and hadn't released it by this point, it'd be Majors firing the PR agency.

The fact that both are dropping him when I guarantee they have far more information on the matter than you is extremely telling.

The photos are reportedly of her at the club after the incident happened and they're saying the video those shots were taken from show her freely using the hand she said was broken after the incident in the car.

We'll have to see what plays out in court obviously, but this seems to be a twist.

The article also mentions the cops might have coached her into saying he assaulted her. I hope the videos get released.

There are reports that the driver saw the woman attacking Jonathan Majors and will testify on his behalf. And possible videos of her partying after the incident without injuries.

Hmmm

I think they moved it back to Autumn 2023 in an effort to slow down their release schedule.

I wonder why they dont just use rubber bullets?

IIRC, there were only supposed to be blanks in the gun, but the armorer had a live round in it.

I remember my mom getting so mad at me because I refused to apply at places like McDonald's and Wendy's. It was mostly because I didn't trust myself cooking food for random people when I didn't even know how to cook at the time, lol.

We're 8 episodes into season 2, and I think the show has been pretty good. I'm liking the references to the old show, while at the same time it feels completely fresh. It's an different genre with a new story, for the most part.

Part of the problem was that I wasn't sure what I wanted, and I took forever to actually look into it. Before I got my house, I was 100% convinced that I wanted smart blinds that I could raise/lower/open/close with Google Home or whatever. Then I saw that those blinds were double, sometimes triple the price of normal blinds, so I decided against that. I also figured I wasn't going to be opening/closing the blinds very often, and if I DID, I would have to keep swapping out and/or charging batteries.

I opted for some zebra/dual-sheer blinds with a corded control method that attaches to the right side of the window, and I really like how they look.

I'm surprised you didn't have a break in. I did.

I've been relying on my tiny ADT Security sign out front and my alarm system.

DrizztLink posted...

Like full-on you just had open, uncovered windows this whole time?

Yep, lol

Pepys_Monster posted...

So what did you do in the meantime, tape cloth over the windows?

They were unobstructed for two years

I feel like I've been doing stuff in the wrong order.

• I got my dream car before my house
• I got solar, smart thermostats, smart smoke detectors, a new computer desk, a new bed, and a workout machine before blinds

What will CableZL do wrong next?

This has been a long ass trial. It has gone on for months with multiple interruptions and delays.

Tucker will never go until the entire channel goes with him. Tucker IS Fox News

Unfortunately only the small fry are getting fired. The 3 untouchables are

Tucker
Hannity
Laura Ingraham

Those I think are their 3 main hosts and the backbone of their lineup

Yep. Hopefully Smartmatic will take them all the way through a trial with their $2.7 billion lawsuit. Fox News really needs to be taken to task for all their bullshit

The tweet in the op got deleted

I edited it and the radar online article out... My mistake, everyone. I should have done more verification before making the topic

UnholyMudcrab posted...

4/20 is a hell of a day for someone with the name Bongino to be fired

Post of the day

Yeah, it looks like only Bongino has been fired so far. Hopefully the others will be fired, too, though.

I would like to live in a universe where Fox News is a respectable news outlet, especially with how large their audience is.

wanderingshade posted...

Hard to hold him to criminal charges. Civil charges are totally fair though, running an unsafe set and people fucking around with live ammo and the person in charge with the guns not being careful. I get charging the armorer with a crime though.

Yeah. I still think he needs to be held somewhat accountable, but I'm not sure criminal charges would stick...

But again, I haven't been following the case too closely, so I'm not too sure either way.

I'm trying to see if another source besides Radar Online has this info about Pirro and Bartiromo. I know Bartiromo was one that Fox News was trying to throw under the bus in the Dominion lawsuit. Their article just says "at least one critic predicts they'll be fired"

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Yeah, she's another one who needs to go

Irony posted...

Nobody I really know

To be fair, I only know who those 3 are because I've been following details about Fox News and the Trump campaign's bullshit surrounding the 2020 election and January 6th very closely. I don't watch Fox News at all, but I read articles surrounding developments about the allegations from Trump and his campaign, the 60+ lawsuits they filed, the fake elector scheme, the capitol riot, sanctions for Trump lawyers, etc.

Yeah, Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson need to face consequences, too... But as we've seen, Fox News values money over everything. I'm not gonna bother looking up numbers, but I believe those are two of their biggest earners.

**CORRECTION**

Only Dan Bongino has been fired so far. Hopefully more than just him will get fired.

*CORRECTION**

Looks like Maria Bartiromo, Jeanine Pirro, and Dan Bongino got the axe so far

Edit: Dan Bongino definitely got let go, but I'm trying to find alternate sources for Pirro and Bartiromo

Irony posted...

They wouldn't which is why the armorer should be in prison since she said the gun wasn't loaded.

It seems the armorer is still facing charges. Hopefully she gets convicted.

Why would they need real bullets?

Zikten posted...

Why was the gun ever even pointed at that victim anyway, is what I still don't understand

Yeah, there's so many weird things about that incident.

• Do they really use real guns for movies?
• Do they really have real bullets in the vicinity of said real guns?

DKBananaSlamma posted...

What about the prop guys who loaded the gun and were shooting it the night before?

That's a good question. I hadn't heard anything about them.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/charges-alec-baldwin-dropped-fatal-rust-shooting-attorneys-say-rcna80722

Charges have been dropped against Alec Baldwin in the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his Western movie "Rust," his lawyers said Thursday.

We are pleased with the decision to dismiss the case against Alec Baldwin and we encourage a proper investigation into the facts and circumstances of this tragic accident, according to a joint statement by Baldwin's lawyers Luke Nikas and Alex Spiro.

From the bits and pieces that I've read and heard about this situation, I think this is the right move. Tragic situation all around, though.

Just glad no folks were on it.

Why rig it to blow up though?

Just let it keep going through space or whatever.

It was a test flight. They hadn't launched that particular configuration before. They'll take the data from this one and hopefully do better on the next one.

Thank you! I'll definitely consider it. I genuinely love doing customer service especially in call centers, but not sales so that kinda limits my potential there :(

Yeah, one reason I went into network engineering was to get away from the average end user. I did tech support for 5 and a half years and was burned out. The job in its purest sense was cool. I liked helping people who didn't understand computers with computer-related problems, but there are too many people who:

• Clearly Don't know jack shit
• Think they know everything
• Try to tell you how to do your job
• Don't want to listen to any recommendations you make to fix the problem they're calling about, no matter how commonly you've fixed their exact problem
• Don't want to take ownership for things they've specifically done to cause their own problems.

When I got hired at a network operations center, one of the things my boss at that company told me was, "For better or for worse, a router, firewall, switch, etc. will do what you tell it to do 100% of the time." That sounded amazing to me, so I gave it a serious shot and it has worked out well.

Maybe he's training for Creed 4

Maybe but I'd have a lot more steps I'd need to take before that point. I've thought about different trades but the reality is my ADD makes it incredibly hard to focus, and my depression makes working in any environment where I'm not engaging with people a challenge. Neither insurmountable, but I need to be able to get some regular therapy and medication first.

Understood. If you ever feel like you're ready to take a look at it, I can share some videos with you that will go over the basics. IMO, it's the kind of thing that will bore you to tears pretty quickly or spark interest pretty quickly. If it ends up being the former for someone, I wouldn't recommend trying to do it professionally.

Do you think you'd be interested in learning network engineering? Pays well and doesn't cost much to learn. It's a huge time sink to learn it and I'd recommend actually checking to see if you're interested in the subject material, but... If it sparks your interest and you get the hang of it, it's a skill that will make a lot of employers interested.

They think it's akin to their religious leaders, teachers, and family members grooming and sexually assaulting them when they were kids. So they project that onto their perceived political enemies.

This is basically what's gonna happen now

Seems more and more likely that Jonathan Majors has Ray Rice'd his way out of the MCU

Why is the document not on a government web page if the US Senate released it?

Thanks Cable, that was very informative. The crazy woman part was particularly good.

What is wrong with Fox News?

It's really bizarre. They're clearly more concerned with money than they are with journalistic integrity. The damage they've done to the country seems to be irreparable at this point, imo. They likely won't mention anything about any of the lawsuits they're facing and losing/settling on air so a large majority of their viewers will just go on acting like Fox News is telling them the truth and the lawsuits never happened.

I was hoping Dominion would go through with the trial to force public testimony from Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Maria Bartiromo, Lou Dobbs, etc., but they settled right before opening statements.

So now we pretty much have to hope Smartmatic will actually force them to go all the way through a trial. Also hopefully that one will be televised.

Yeah, I didn't bother with raids very much. I still think SV was my favorite Pokemon gen so far. I liked the open world system with pokemon running around in real time. The only problem I had with that was the super tiny pokemon that were harder to see.

I tried to get an authentic Sinistea, but I gave up after a few hours.
