Every year, buying strawberries at the supermarket is like two or three great dates in a relationship you know is doomed to fizzle.

Every. Damned. Year.

A ray of hope for the cybersphere. The video clip in my first reply, from Jeopardy! 20 years ago today, was later placed on YouTube as a snarkpost. At first the majority of comments reflected that: either flaming Tim as a dork or calling Alex a diva who couldn’t stand to be upstaged. 1/2

Interesting how the corporate-opened broadcast giant ABC trembles and caves in response to a no-content lawsuit from You Know Who, while the non-profit Chicago Sun-Times calls for news media to show some backbone.

News media must stand up against Trump’s bullying lawsuits — Chicago Sun-Times
ABC News and parent company Disney caved in a lawsuit even though they were on firm legal ground. They should have defended journalist George Stephanopoulos but corporate greed likely got in the way.
