The speech, which warned viewers of “fake news,” had the newscasters promising to serve fair and accurate reporting, and ask their audiences to provide feedback on “unfair” coverage. Now anchors are speaking out anonymously about their obligation to air the statement, along with other right-leaning “must run” packages, while various national outlets...

A Kentucky Democratic congressional candidate has pulled all of her campaign advertisements from her local, Sinclair Broadcasting-owned news channel after the controversy that exploded when anchors all over the country echoed the same script warning of fake news and biased reporting.

Looks like it’s humans: 0, computers: 1 again. If you’re a big enough fan of ramen, maybe you can look at a photo of a tonkotsu bowl on Instagram and immediately recognize which restaurant it’s from. But computers have us beat, as they can now identify the exact shop a menu item came from, out of 41 seemingly identical bowls of ramen from the same restaurant franchise.

No, it wasn't Shohei Ohtani, but St. Louis' Miles Mikolas who hit his first major league home run on Monday.

Motherwell come into this game on the back of consecutive home draws against Celtic and Rangers. Can they complete a hat-trick of draws against the top-three of the Premiership when they host Aberdeen at Fir Park on Tuesday? Last weekend, Well blew up a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with Rangers, but in the end, it was a satisfactory result for the seventh-placed side in the Premiership. With 37 points in their account, Well are clear of the relegation struggle, but it doesn’t look like they will be... Читать дальше...

Villanova or Michigan? Spoiler: Our staff does not care for the Wolverines.

Giving way to hot hatchbacks, larger premium super saloons and estates, and performance SUVs and crossovers, the small fast saloon was formerly a relatively common feature of many a car company’s line-up, and an attainable entry into practical high performance motoring. Of the scant few carmakers catering to this segment, both Audi and Subaru have built their reputations on turbo charged four-wheel-drive rally success. But whereas the Japanese maker’s WRX STI is a cult favourite catering to a particular market for mid-range performance cars... Читать дальше...

The Breakneck, Wyo., of Michael Golamco’s play “Cowboy vs. Samurai,” now in a Pear Theatre production, is the sort of town in which there’s no tofu to be found, where the local Asian American Alliance comprises two members. But lo, a possible third member is afoot, and a female one at that — though what if she’s interested only in white guys? The comedy loosely follows “Cyrano de Bergerac.” Newcomer Veronica (Heather Mae Steffen) falls for Del (Drew Reitz), who walks the walk of John Wayne but can’t talk the talk. Читать дальше...

Here's another reason to hate National League rules: J.D. Martinez has to sit out a game. The new Boston DH/OF will ride the pine tonight in South Beach since slugging pitcher Brian Johnson (three HRs in BP the other day) needs to hit. Actually, that's not the reason, Martinez just needs a day off (he's hitting a 'robust' .200 with no HRs). Here is the Red Sox lineup for tonight: 1. Mookie Betts RF; 2. Andrew Benintendi LF; 3. Hanley Ramirez 1B; 4. Rafael Devers 3B; 5. Xander Bogaerts SS; 6. Eduardo Nunez 2B; 7. Читать дальше...

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — From rodeo announcer to custom-cabinet builder, second jobs have become a necessity for many teachers in Oklahoma, where educators are some of the lowest paid in the nation. Thousands of teachers demonstrated Monday at the Capitol, in step with teachers in Kentucky, to voice dissatisfaction with salaries, school funding and other issues.

Mesut Ozil has frequently faced accusations that he goes missing in games during his time at Arsenal and one such occasion came after the Gunners went down 1-0 to Stoke City in August. Jese’s goal was enough to clinch all three points for the Potters and continue Arsenal’s prolonged struggles at the hostile Bet365 Stadium. In the wake of yet another Staffordshire setback for Arsene Wenger and his side, Ozil was the subject of a tweet from Stoke Policing, joking that he had gone walkabout yet again. Читать дальше...
