Gilbert Carrasquillo/GC ImagesThe Pennsylvania governor, who is Jewish, has attracted more scrutiny on this issue than other potential running mates. That's despite Shapiro being largely in line with other Democrats when it comes to the baseline policy of US support for Israel. Shapiro has also called Benjamin Netanyahu a "terrible leader," telling NBC News that the Israeli Prime Minister has "driven Israel to an extreme that has been bad for Israel and bad for the stability in the Middle East." At the time, pro-Palestinian protests had swept college campuses across the country, occasionally resulting in chaos and disruption. "I think we have to be careful about setting any kind of double standard here on our campuses."

In fact, Biden has engaged in a number of interviews this year, particularly with the Black and Hispanic press. “People in D.C. and New York may not always see it,” Michael Tyler, the Biden campaign communications director, told me by phone. The campaign argues that it adds up to media playbook that is inclusive of new media entities and other platforms with broad reach. “Number of times Jason Bateman has done a sit-down interview with President Biden: 2. Some of Biden’s hesitation to speak with the traditional news media likely stems from his frustration with how members of the press have covered him and his campaign.

☆ RIP Sports Illustrated. And RIP, magazines.

Read previewSports Illustrated used to be an American cultural touchstone. And sad for a certain kind of media person — like me — who remembers when Sports Illustrated was Really Important. AdvertisementFor people who don't remember that era: In a pre-internet world, Sports Illustrated was many things. In recent years, you were much more likely to read about a scandal or stupid controversy at Sports Illustrated than you were to actually read Sports Illustrated. So feel free to pour one out for Sports Illustrated — both the idea and the actual place where people worked.

Some of the richest people in tech have some pretty bizarre eating habits. Elon Musk Gilbert Carrasquillo/GC ImagesJust because billionaires have the money to pay for pricey personal chefs or high-end healthy foods doesn't mean they're adhering to diets that are good for them. While some experiment with the latest health fads —like the Paleo diet and veganism — there are other tech billionaires who enjoy eating chocolate for breakfast or skip eating altogether for days at a time. So when it comes to wealth, you may want to follow the lead of these techies, but think twice when it comes to health.
