The Week in Pictures: Pulling Pelley Edition

On the whole, it’s been a good week. It’s not every week that serves up the kind of supreme schadenfreudey goodness that comes from the firing of the pompous CBS News blowhard Scott Pelley, with more to follow. Less noticed was that NPR laid off most of its climate change reporters this week, too. If NPR is giving up on the climate crusade, it is well and truly over. The strong showing of Steve Hilton and Spencer Pratt (fingers crossed about those “late” votes) is also cheering, though it will still be an uphill fight to November. England continues to spiral down the drain, but after their George Floyd-in-reverse moment, I am cheered to see anti-police riots in Birmingham. Oh, and props to DOCTOR Jill Biden for providing more free entertainment with her memoir. Can Hunter’s memoir be far behind? And Obama’s library opened, with a structure that looks like it belongs in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Starmer in 2020, after George Floyd

I love Paris in the spring.

Oh yeah—happy pride month.

Headlines of the week:

Glad the NY Times has sorted this out for us.

Pass the popcorn

Because it is boring?

Here’s a TMI story I’m not going to read.

I thought they already had one?

You hate to see it. (Not.)

Question no one is asking.

Especially when gay fish are chasing them.

I’d go see it if they cast it his way.

And finally. . .
