The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Bari Weiss, self described "Zionist fanatic" has been appointed minder over CBS News. As if CBS News needed to be even more biased. I have commented before, how CBS News was pushing for US military intervention in the Syrian civil war, to toppled the Assad regime, a long time irritant to Israel.

Bari Weiss mocked for suggesting ‘charismatic’ voices like Alan Dershowitz are what CBS News needs

Alan Dershowitz, the 87-year-old former lawyer and friend of deceased sex predator Jeffrey Epstein, is apparently the type of “charismatic” thought leader who should be elevated on CBS News’ airwaves, according to the network’s newly installed editor-in-chief.

The curious declaration by Bari Weiss, the heterodox founder of the anti-woke digital outlet The Free Press who now leads the Tiffany Network’s news division, sparked widespread mockery from journalists and commentators.

Sitting next to right-wing pundit Ben Shapiro, Weiss asserted that not only did Dershowitz and Loesch seemingly represent the “center left and center right” of the political divide, but that their opinions and positions are “where the vast majority of Americans actually are.”

Meanwhile, she decried that provocateurs such as white nationalist Nick Fuentes, former Fox News star Tucker Carlson, misogynist influencer Andrew Tate and leftist Twitch streamer Hasan Piker had large audiences and popular podcasts.

“I don't think that they represent the values and the worldview of the vast majority of Americans.
