[TV orNotTV] Bass of Rankin-Bass Dies at 87

[Mark Jeffries]

Jules Bass, along with his partner Arthur Rankin, Jr. (who died in 2014), 
was responsible for a lot of well-remembered animated specials and series 
over five decades, most notably those holiday standbys "Rudolph the 
Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "Frosty the Snowman"--they also pioneered the 
process of having the animation production done in Pacific Rim countries to 
save money and the use of celebrity voices on their specials--they also 
brought to Saturday morning television on ABC cartoon versions of the 
Jackson 5 and the Osmonds--age-related illness in an assisted living 
facility in upstate New York:

 Robinson’s main point is that it does matter how West arrived at his
 vile positions, or what role mental illness played, they are still equally
 vile and dangerous.

 While I try not to Dx people who I have not examined and are not under
 my care, I have regarded him as having bipolar disorder for many, many
 years. I hope he does get the treatment he needs, but even if he does, I
 don’t expect it to cure him of his hatred.

[TV orNotTV] Climate Activist: Yeah, We Heckled Cruz on 'The View'

[Mark Jeffries]

A group of activists who got into the studio audience Monday on the live 
telecast started chanting "Cover climate now," aiming more at ABC News than 
Sen. Cruz, Whoopi Goldberg told them to shut up, another host said "we do 
cover it" and then another activist shouted "F--k you Ted Cruz, you 
climate-denying piece of s--t!" and was promptly escorted out of the studio 
(thanks to delay, bleeped on the air--the below link includes a TikTok 
video shot by an audience member), as Whoopi called for a commercial:

https://www.thewrap.com/the-view-ted-cruz-climate-change-protesters-take-responsibility/?utm_source=newsletter_medium=email_campaign=breaking_news_7160250

The activists claim that ABC only devoted 6 hours to climate coverage last 
year (with ABC News controlling 7 1/2 hours of programming daily, not 
counting weekends, the ABC News Now streamer and prime time--and besides, 
"20/20" is pretty much true crime now).  ABC says that they are the only 
network to have covered last year's UN Climate Summit and point out their 
Murrow, Emmy and Polk awards for climate coverage.

Climate aside, the whole thing seems performative as hell, considering that 
Whoopi Goldberg is not the president of ABC News.  The only thing that this 
incident will cause is "The View" getting Yondr pouches that everyone will 
be required to put their phones in and more scrutiny of New York studio 
audiences by security than just going through the metal detector at the 
door.  Yeah, if they showed up in Colbert's audience and started chanting, 
they'd just stop tape, kick them out and edit it out, but to me this is as 
pointless as throwing food on paintings in museums.
