Nick Diaz is poised to end his five-year hiatus from the cage after his manager confirmed that the former UFC title challenger has returned to training and is eyeing a comeback fight in early 2021. Diaz has been absent from the cage since a January 2015 fight with Anderson Silva, with many assuming that the former Strikeforce champion was essentially retired. But his manager Kevin Mubenga confirmed to ESPN’s Ariel Helwani that the 37-year-old will fight next year. The Stockton, California native completed an intensive 14-week training regimen and has conducted a test weight cut, and is currently somewhere between 165lbs […]
CNN political analyst Joe Lockhart on Tuesday viciously attacked former Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann after his short speech at the Republican National Convention. “I’m watching tonight because it’s important. But i [sic] don’t have to watch this snot nose entitled kid from Kentucky,” Lockhart wrote on Twitter. Lockhart, who served as a press secretary for former president Bill Clinton, did not point out that his network had settled a $250 million defamation lawsuit earlier this year. Sandmann was targeted by mainstream media after a 2019 pro-life march in Washington, D.C. for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat. […]

A graphic used by CNN to break down speakers at the Republican National Convention described Nick Sandmann as someone who “sued major media outlets over viral video,” leaving out important details, including their own settlement. The graphic, spotted by reporter Cameron Gray, also provided no image for Sandmann, despite doing so for others. While CNN’s description is technically correct, it is quite misleading. It is true Sandmann sued major media outlets, including CNN, but these were defamation suits stemming from a 2019 video showing the former Covington Catholic High School student seemingly mocking Nathan Phillips, a Native American protester taking part […]
Thank you Wild Turkey® for partnering with Half Full on the Bartenders At Home cocktail video series. What inspired you to create this cocktail? “I love adding herbs or floral elements to Old-Fashioneds to give them a lighter and more accessible feel. The Wild Turkey® 101 Bourbon has so much depth and body to it already, so lightening it up just a bit with some rosemary and honey gives this particular Old-Fashioned a summery vibe.” When would you serve this drink? “Even though many people equate Old- Fashioneds with the colder months, I think this is perfect for spring and summer.” […]
Cannon’s comments on race and skin colour have drawn widespread condemnation, and his employers at ViacomCBS dropped him from the show he produced for the company. Media megastar Nick Cannon has apologised to the Jewish community for saying that Caucasian and Jewish people are inferior to darker-skinned people. The TV host and actor on Wednesday took the blame for spreading “hateful propaganda and stereotypical rhetoric that pained another community”. “I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth,” he tweeted. I want to assure […]
Entertainer Nick Cannon has offered a lengthy apology after creating a wave of controversy with anti-Jewish remarks in a recently published interview, but offered no mea culpa for similar inflammatory comments about white people. “First and foremost I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth during my interview with Richard Griffin,” Cannon said in the first of a series of tweets on Wednesday night, adding that he is “ashamed” his comments “reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people.” They reinforced […]
Often, we discuss conspiracy theories as if they are kooky yet benign tales spun by our neighbors, acquaintances, and even friends. But in America’s current political and cultural configuration, prejudice combined with ignorance often masquerades as legitimate thought and leads to devastating outcomes (just see how Floridian COVID-19 deniers are doing now). And in a society marked by incessant high-speed information and spin, anecdotal and instinctual bias becomes the basis of bad-faith arguments about free speech and a “marketplace of ideas.” As much as social media has brought us smart thinking by typically marginalized voices, it’s also allowed careless people with […]
TV host Nick Cannon is facing accusations of antisemitism and racism following a bizarre and now-viral interview in which he claims white people are “a little less” and black people are who Jewish people “want to be.” During the discussion with former Public Enemy member Richard Griffin (who left the group after saying the “Jews are wicked” in a 1989 interview), Cannon, who hosts the ‘Masked Singer,’ claimed it is impossible for him to be antisemitic. “It’s never hate speech, you can’t be anti-Semitic when we are the Semitic people,” he said. “When we are the same people who they want […]
ViacomCBS, which has MTV and Nickelodeon among its assets, has said it’s severing its relationship with TV host Nick Cannon, after he was accused of racism and anti-Semitism for a series of bizarre claims in a resurfaced clip. The multinational media conglomerate accused Cannon – who has been a host for ‘Wild ‘n Out,’ a comedy show broadcast by Viacom’s MTV and VH1 for over a decade – of “promoting hateful speech” and “spreading anti-Semitic conspiracy theories” in a statement on Tuesday, shortly after an episode of his ‘Cannon’s Class’ podcast went viral. “While we support ongoing education and dialogue in […]

Norma McCorvey never knew who to trust. She was declared a ward of the state at 10. Then her father walked out, leaving her in the hands of an alcoholic mother and first cousin once removed, who she said raped her numerous times. By 16, she was married to Woody McCorvey. When he allegedly began abusing her, she left, giving birth to their daughter a year later. Norma drank to numb the pain, but it got so bad that her mom tricked her into signing adoption papers. She got pregnant a third time at 21, and, with little money and nowhere […]

The bleary-eyed Kyrgios railed off on a number of topics during […]

Filmmaker Donick Cary’s amusing doc also boasts a series of Drunk History-style recreations with comedians acting out tripping tales from the recently-departed, including Carrie Fisher and Anthony Bourdain.
