The FCC vs. the News in Your Neighborhood

Journal Editorial Report: Edward Lawrence interviews economic strategist Jason Trennert. Official Washington has Jessica Rosenworcel , the Federal Communications Commission chief. Last seen restarting a needless fight over net neutrality, over the holidays she committed more bureaucracy. The courts pressured her to complete her agency’s absurdly delayed 2018 “quadrennial review” of its extensive media ownership regulations. Of course she found these regulations more urgent than ever despite the internet having obliterated the ostensible electromagnetic scarcity on which they were premised.

How Elon Became an ‘Antisemite’
  + stars: | 2023-11-28 | by ( Holman W. Jenkins | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
Speaking at the 2022 Baron Funds Conference in New York, Elon Musk discussed the 'revenue challenges' he's facing at Twitter, and how a product plan conceived more than 20 years ago could see the social media platform become one of the most valuable companies in the world. Image: Baron Capital via AP/Anadolu Agency Composite: Mark KellyMajor papers like the Journal, New York Times and Washington Post report that advertisers are again fleeing the service previously known as Twitter because, these papers explain, owner Elon Musk endorsed “an antisemitic post.” But try confirming for yourself that the post was intelligibly antisemitic or intelligibly anything else for that matter. The perplexing issue is the noun. A user @breakingbaht expressed a lack of sympathy for “ Jewish communities” (emphasis added) that allegedly encouraged “the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them” while supporting immigration of “hordes of minorities.”

Collusion vs. Stop the Steal
  + stars: | 2023-11-24 | by ( Holman W. Jenkins | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
Donald Trump and Joe Biden Photo: morry gash/Agence France-Presse/Getty ImagesA recent column observed disconcertingly that election denial appears to have been a successful strategy for Donald Trump. Larry Kudlow , his former White House economic adviser, points out that many voters like Trump policies, which is true. How does “stop the steal” advance their cause? One might also ask how and why collusion continues to work for Democrats. My inbox is as revealing about collusion as it is about stop the steal, with some Democrats clinging to whatever they heard first, including the legend of the Moscow hotel room, long since debunked by the U.S. Justice Department.

Journal Editorial Report:What was accomplished by applauding China's leader? Images: Zuma Press Composite: Mark KellyCritics of CEO pay often begin and end with the claim that the CEOs don’t “deserve” their giant salaries, but deserve has nothing to do with it. Large and pre-emptory carrots aren’t about reward after the fact. They are about control before the fact, designed tightly to harness the interests of the key decision maker, especially in a media and legal environment where a loose cannon CEO can do untold damage to organizational interests. By late Sunday, on the question of the day—why was CEO Sam Altman of OpenAI, creator of ChatGPT, fired from his job?—ChatGPT had this to say: “The board stated that Altman ‘was not consistently candid in his communications.’ However, specific details surrounding Altman’s departure have not been publicly disclosed.”

Journal Editorial Report: Pressure mounts on the Jewish state to 'pause.' Images: AP/Getty Images Composite: Mark KellySince Oct. 7 I keep thinking of Jack Nicholson , as a Marine colonel in “A Few Good Men,” bellowing “You can’t handle the truth.” I think of this line in respect to friends of Israel who are shocked by the bestiality of that day’s attack, as if history didn’t furnish examples and the assault wasn’t designed to achieve a desired effect. I think of the Nicholson line in respect to students who cheer on Hamas from their campus safety, having no real conception of violence and expecting to be shielded from even having their feelings hurt. (If the draft makes a comeback, they will have some growing up to do.)

‘Stop the Steal’ Is Working

Images: Reuters/AP/Getty Images Composite: Mark KellyGrover Cleveland spent three years fishing and dabbling at a law practice and keeping out of the public eye after losing the White House in 1888. He reintroduced himself to voters in 1891, writing a lengthy disquisition on the coinage of silver. This launched him on the path to becoming the only president to lose the office and win it back four years later. Donald Trump is doing it differently and a fact will have to be reckoned with. He maintained his dominance, and may well return to the White House, by relentlessly flogging the idea that the election was stolen from him, that he was the country’s rightful president, that Joe Biden is illegitimate.

The Earth Is Warming, but Is CO2 the Cause?
  + stars: | 2023-11-03 | by ( Holman W. Jenkins | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
Journal Editorial Report: Paul Gigot Interviews Bjorn Lomborg. Images: AP/EPA Composite: Mark KellyIf this column has ever plagiarized itself, it’s by repeating the phrase “evidence of warming is not evidence of what causes warming.” A paper published by the Norwegian government’s statistical agency, written by two of its retired experts, touching on this very subject has called forth so many shrieked accusations of climate apostasy that you know it must be interesting. The authors ask a simple question: Are computerized climate simulations a sufficient basis for attributing observed warming to human CO2? After all, the Earth’s climate has been subject to substantial warming and cooling trends for millennia that remain unexplained and can’t be attributed to fossil fuels. As statisticians, their conclusion: “With the current level of knowledge, it seems impossible to determine how much of the temperature increase is due to emissions of CO2.”

Biden’s Only Salvation: A New Vice President

The House Oversight Committee wants to see more than 5,000 emails Vice President Biden sent using a pseudonym, while a third bank memorandum details further allegations of payments to the Biden family and its business associates. Images: AP/Zuma Press Composite: Mark KellyThe obvious solution is for Joe Biden to get a new vice president. In the best of circumstances, she’d be the wrong vice president now—too domestic, too ticket-punchy—for a country facing international dangers with a superannuated president. What president doesn’t return to his home state after his term to give his successors elbow room in D.C.? Mr. Obama doesn’t.

With streaming disrupting the economics of the TV and film industries, it doesn’t help to alienate your audience with political posturing like Disney has with its refashioning of classic fairy tales including the upcoming 'Snow White.' Images: Disney/Shutterstock/Bloomberg News/Getty Images for CAA Composite: Mark KellyAmong the big names on a Zoom call last week of Hollywood actors questioning their union over lack of progress in the actor’s strike was Meryl Streep . Her name jumps out because 112 days earlier she signed a letter with other major stars urging a strike at a moment when a planarian might have noticed the union’s leverage was at low ebb thanks to the collapse of cable subscribership, streaming losses and the decline of movie-going. Nanny Defarge, aka Fran Drescher , the union boss, saw the light, however, and began out-mau-mauing the letter signers. Until that moment, she had insisted talks with the studios were making “exceptional progress.” Even the New York Times now says her sudden adoption of blood-curdling rhetoric has been an obstacle to a deal.
