Not that many are expecting Tucker Carlson to be a source of absolute truth, but his claim that Western journalists haven’t even tried to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin about the war in Ukraine is being ripped by reporters who have been trying to do exactly that for years.
The former Fox News personality’s Tuesday announcement that he’s interviewed Putin included the claim that journalists have done “scores of interviews” with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky but “not a single Western journalist has bothered to interview the president of the other country involved in this conflict, Vladimir Putin. Most Americans have no idea why Putin invaded Ukraine or what his goals are now. They’ve never heard his voice. That’s wrong.”
First, Putin’s reasons for invading Ukraine have been widely and repeatedly reported in the U.S. from his speeches and official statements (which often include his “voice”).
But second,...

Nancy Pelosi suggested that Russia may be funding pro-Palestinian protesters who have been interrupting Democratic campaign events, saying that some calling for a ceasefire are promoting “Putin’s message.”
Protesters disrupted Pelosi’s appearance in Seattle on Thursday to call for an end to Israel’s assault on Palestine. Vocal demonstrators have also been appearing regularly at President Joe Biden’s events. Pelosi said that she would like the FBI to investigate whether Russia is financing these groups.

Bill Maher Laments The Rejection Of Western Civilization Values By Misguided Social Justice Warriors
“Western civilization is what gave the word every goddamn liberal precept to adore,” Bill Maher thundered during his “New Rules” editorial on Friday’s Real Time. He went on to list religious freedom and other benefits.
So, Maher contended, citing a recent statement from President Joe Biden, “The world would be a better place if we had more Israels.” People live better today because of Western ideals, not in spite of them, Maher contended, and that’s why he’s struggling with the anti-Israel backlash, particularly on college campuses. “It’s like a volcano that blew,” he said. “I don’t know where this comes from.”
That was the theme that also came through in the night’s panel discussion, which featured Fareed Zakaria, host of CNN’s Fareed Zakaria Gps and columnist for the Washington Post, and Ian Bremmer, president of Eurasia Group and Gzero Media. There was much...

Bill Maher returned to the airwaves with HBO’s “Real Time” for the first time since the strike with only mild praise for the Writers Guild of America for settling the five-month strike.
Season 21 of “Real Tiime with Bill Maher” became the first of TV’s prominent late-night talk shows to return to the airwaves after the conclusion of the 148-day work stoppage. Maher opened Episode 14 of his hourlong weekly talk/roundtable series with a one-on-one between Maher and GOP presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis, the controversial governor of Florida.
After that as the show transitioned to a panel discussion with Maher and Sam Harris, host of “Making Sense” podcast, and author and podcaster Mary Katharine Ham, who co-hosts the “Getting Hammered” podcast and penned the book “End of Discussion: How The Left’s Outrage Industry Shuts Down Debate, Manipulates Voters and Makes America Less Free (and Fun).”

San Francisco, Oct 12 (Ians) Tech tycoon Elon Musk has refuted a claim made by political scientist and founder of Eurasia Group Ian Bremmer that he recently discussed “the minimum the Russian President would require to end the war” with Vladimir Putin.
According to CNBC, Bremmer’s note went out earlier this week to clients.
Investor Sven Henrich asked Musk, via his Twitter account “@northmantrader,” if the report was accurate.
“No, it is not. I have spoken to Putin only once and that was about 18 months ago. The subject matter was space,” the Tesla and SpaceX CEO tweeted.
Later on Tuesday, Bremmer doubled down, writing that Musk had told him that he spoke directly with Putin and the Kremlin about Ukraine.

Sharon Osbourne, the former co-host of CBS’ The Talk who left the daytime show last month after a heated on-air debate about racism, will get a chance to explain why when she guests on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher this week.
Osbourne will be Maher’s top-of-show solo interview on Friday’s episode, Real Time said today.
The appearance will mark Osbourne’s first extended TV interview since the controversy — she was not part of Monday’s episode of The Talk devoted entirely to a discussion of the incident and racism in general. On that episode, co-hosts Sheryl Underwood and Elaine Welteroth described the March 10 incident, in which Osbourne defended her friend Piers Morgan over comments some interpreted as racist and sternly told Underwood, “Don’t you dare cry.”
Welteroth, a Black woman, recalled the Underwood-Osbourne exchange and said she believed Osbourne “was not listening and went off the rails into disrespect.

As the Occupy Wall Street movement began to crest and millennials the world over started to realize they’d be the first generation since World War II to make less money than their parents, French economist Thomas Piketty had the good fortune to release a hyper-readable book that explained why (or at least offered a lucid argument for liberals to debate and conservatives to deny). “Capital in the Twenty-First Century” moved 1.5 million copies in its first two years of release, making it the highest-selling title that Harvard University Press has ever published, and turning its author into the closest thing his field has to a rock star.
Now, in the midst of an election year pandemic that is ruthlessly exposing the rift between capital and labor — and shining a garish spotlight on the gross inequality that results from such a disconnect — Kiwi filmmaker Justin Pemberton has translated Piketty’s text into a spry,...

Of the many pandemic-stroke-apocalypse-stroke-doomsday movies experiencing a resurgence in the age of coronavirus, few are funnier or better-made than Shaun of the Dead. The self-proclaimed romantic comedy with zombies has gone down as a cult classic, and now it’s drawing new admirers.
Several Shaun fans have noticed a real-life similarity between our pandemic and that depicted in the movie. Here’s what was best described as “Shaun of the Dead goes stateside”:

Mayor Bill de Blasio gave a shout out to New Yorkers Friday night, saying, “We asked them to do something unimaginable” – social distancing in the most crowed place in the country. The Mayor appeared on HBO’s virtually reconstituted Real Time with Bill Maher just as things in the Big Apple – the epicenter of the nation’s coronavirus pandemic – were looking a teeny bit brighter.
“Hospitalizations … are growing less. The use of ventilators was sky high. Now it’s lower,” he told Maher. “We are still seeing more cases each day than the day before. But “folks in this city did something mentally and logistically tough … and that’s why our health care leadership believes some of these numbers are slowing down.”

Davos, Switzerland — Staring down a Senate impeachment trial, President Trump absconded to Switzerland on Tuesday to address the World Economic Forum in Davos, the remote ski town where the world’s elite congregate annually to discuss the issues plaguing the global community. No issue is of more pressing concern at the 2020 edition of the forum than the climate crisis, but not only did Trump fail to address it seriously, he also bashed climate activists as “perennial prophets of doom” and “heirs of yesterday’s foolish fortune tellers.”

Bill Maher has made a career out of vivid insults and fearless political putdowns but the HBO star said Friday night that watching the nation’s political divides deepen is making him reconsider the language of his comedy.
On the season finale of Real Time with Bill Maher, the host used the show’s concluding commentary to extol the principles of political tolerance — and to express his genuine anxieties that the current path of politics is leading toward “a sh*tstorm” for the country.
“Lately we’ve been hearing more and more about a second civil war which sounds impossible in this modern, affluent country,” Maher said “It is not…when both sides believe the other guy taking over is the end of the world, yes, you can have a civil war.”
At one point in the show-ending monologue, Maher listed some salty pejoratives used to bait the left and the right,...

Currently in its final stages of post-production, Jb Dunckel of French electro band Air is arranging music for the English-language film, which Studiocanal will be selling off of a new trailer here in Berlin. Fellow Vivendi subsidiary Upside Distribution was previously handling sales but the project has been moved up to the Studiocanal slate.
Piketty’s book, which has sold more than 3M copies worldwide, breaks with the popular assumption that the accumulation of capital runs hand in hand with social progress.

Don’t forget about Russia.
President Trump’s scheme to hold 800,000 federal employees hostage over border wall funding has dominated news coverage since the government began operating under a partial shutdown on December 21st, but Special Counsel Robert Mueller is still busy looking into his campaign’s relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin. So is the media. On Friday, the New York Times reported that after Trump fired James Comey in May 2017, the FBI opened a counterintelligence investigation to determine whether the president was working on behalf of Russia.

It was the opening interview with Marlow that had social media aflame as Marlow and Maher agreed on free speech but veered away from each over the Russian news stories. Interestingly Maher didn’t ask Marlow anything about former staffer Milo Yiannopoulos’ outlandish prior remarks.

I mean, how many truly productive things do you actually get done? Or do you just do enough that your Monday isn't a total disaster? That's what I thought. Anyway, I hope everyone else gets to have a super awesome weekend, just like I'm going to, and here's what's on TV this Thursday night:
8:00 p.m.: "Bones" on Fox.
"Community" on NBC.
"Flash Forward" ABC.
"Survivor" on CBS.
"The Vampire Diaries" on The CW. There's a lot of pretty on this show, so I decided to highlight it for tonight. Mmmmm, pretty. If "Twilight" had guys that looked like that I... well, I still probably wouldn't watch "Twilight" but I might get some of the posters.
