This was anthrax,” Pogan said, and he briefed his superiors. Between October 5, and November 22, 2001, five people who were exposed died from anthrax poisoning.

☆ How OJ Simpson’s ‘trial of the century’ reshaped the national media and opened the door to Donald Trump’s presidency

But the impression that Simpson’s all-consuming trial had on shaping the modern media environment cannot be overstated. Simpson’s trial gave way to a media landscape dominated by salacious reality television and talking head-driven cable news. It’s difficult to imagine Trump being elected to the White House without the three-legged stool that Simpson’s trial played a crucial role in building. Reality TV had started earlier, but after Simpson there was a massive profusion of ‘Reality TV,’” Socolow said in an email. “That’s how ‘The Apprentice’ gave Donald Trump a comeback in American culture, and he rode his reality TV stardom to the White House.”

☆ ‘Cocaine Bear’ Review: Elizabeth Banks’s Smokey Meets Scarface
  + stars: | 2023-02-24 | by ( Kyle Smith | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
The bear who does cocaine in ‘Cocaine Bear’Like “Snakes on a Plane” and “Sharknado,” “Cocaine Bear” seeks to entice an audience with an amusingly trashy title. But the title is by far the most noteworthy element of this lumpy horror-comedy. One of those “inspired by true events”—i.e., almost wholly fictitious—stories, “Cocaine Bear” takes place in 1985, when (as a news clip of that era featuring Tom Brokaw tells us) a cocaine trafficker fell to his death from a plane in Tennessee while ditching duffel bags full of the stuff. In real life, some of the bags landed in the woods of Georgia, where a black bear ingested the drugs and died. In legend, the animal was stuffed, put on display, at one point owned by country superstar Waylon Jennings , and wound up entertaining shoppers in a Kentucky mall.
