Murray Energy is headquartered in St Clairsville OH, but the suit was filed 20 
miles down and across the Ohio River in Marshall County WV – all the better for

I didn't follow it closely. But it was headline local news in Pittsburgh as
the jury was selected in our county to serve in the trial in the
Philadelphia area. There was only one victim allowed to take part and the
bulk of the state's case was the deposition Cosby gave in 2005 where he
testified he gave the victim quaaludes before having sex with her. Since
that was already established, the prosecution did not have to find
witnesses. The defense only called one witness and it wasn't to attack the
victim's credibility. The question the jury deadlocked on was whether the
sex was consensual or forced.

I seem to recall a story last month about Cosby being nearly blind and
having trouble speaking. Perhaps that was a sympathy ploy by the defense,
but I don't see him on a lecture tour regardless of the verdict.

Did anybody follow this trial? I have questions about actual witnesses (not
defendants) who were supposedly at the dinners where Cosby gave the women
pills. Were any of the other dinner guests called as witnesses?

The form endures because it is so simple. It's cheap and easy to put
together and the only way to fail is to hire the wrong on camera people.
And if you figure out you have a person who is not working out, replace
them and move on. I don't know what the writer expects in terms of changing
the format. The only real innovation in sports commentary is advanced
statistical analysis. But even a show that incorporates it will still look
like a studio show with a display for stats in the background.

Steve Timko, Tuesday (20):
Their radio show could end early.

Golic shot down the stories in an 
AwfulAnnouncing
 (link) piece, while Greeny did likewise with the 
NYPost
 (link).

...as two professional broadcasters, trying to maintain their public 
appearances despite obvious off-air conflict, would naturally be expected to do.

And Oliver said on the show that Bob Murray would sue him for the piece and
his response was "Eat shit, Bob." So he had a green light from HBO Legal.

2017-06-22 Thread Bob Jersey

Robert Murray leads America's largest producer of the natural fuel, and is 
a well-known Trump ally... Oliver sliced-and-diced him and his businesses 
over a mine collapse the govt blamed on unapproved actions; Murray argued 
it was from an earthquake, and that he'd sent proof thereof to Oliver, only 
to get ignored... the 70+ Murray's health also worsened from the expose and 
viewer social-media attacks that followed...

Re: [TV orNotTV] BBC "News at 10" Idles for Four Minutes

2017-06-22 Thread Adam Bowie
I watched this live when it happened. Kind of...

However it's worth noting that most viewers *didn't* see this. The Ten
O'Clock News is the BBC1 main bulletin, and simulcast on the BBC News
channel. Only viewers on the News channel saw this. BBC1 viewers mostly got
a continuity announcer (yes - we still have those, but not in vision) read
the next night's listings, and then a slide saying there was a temporary
problem. It was accompanied by some awful muzack.

It's also worth noting that BBC World News Channel viewers won't have seen
this because they get a different bulletin at that time.

[TV orNotTV] BBC "News at 10" Idles for Four Minutes

2017-06-22 Thread Ben Scripps
Viewers Tuesday night expecting to see the start of the Huw Edwards newscast 
instead got four minutes of him sitting stoically as techs in the control room 
were dealing with a “technical systems crash”:

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-40350006

HuwTube for the four minutes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzWcQ2nZVg4

(Even if you don’t watch the whole thing, it’s worth looking at the 2:10 mark 
as the glasses-wearing producer in the background right of Huw notices what’s 
happening.)
