Took a 37-minute break from Norm book research to talk to the razor-sharp Sonny Bunch about that old chunk of coal. Nothing cheers me up more than Norm chat. Enjoy.
Netflix's new documentary, THE TALE OF NORM MACDONALD, is kind of amazing, both in terms of its content (lots of Norm!) and its form (it recreates going down a video rabbit hole amazingly well). I talked about it with Norm chronicler @geoffedgers: thebulwark.com/p/the-tao-of-…

Ava DuVernay remembers Washington Post film critic Ann Hornaday, honoring the humanity, dignity and respect she brought to film criticism, even when she didn’t love a movie. In conversation with IndieWire’s Chris O’Falt at Art of the Doc, presented by National Geographic Documentary Films, DuVernay reflects on the relationship between filmmakers and journalists and the importance of telling people’s stories with care. #AvaDuVernay #AnnHornaday #IndieWire

Issue is that none of us - Washington Post folks - have criticized or slammed the Sun and we have not only wished our former colleagues well, but also tried to help support them. And there’s a lot of unfriendliness and worse directed at all of us each day. So this felt wrong.
A lot of people taking very self-satisfied umbrage at a tweet no sane person can disagree with. I still subscribe to the Post but am under no illusion about its ownership, his interference in the paper's affairs, and the decline in quality that it has produced.

I’m taking this down in a few because not interested in an obscure intramural argument about semantics. But @jstein_sun should too.

The real @chrishansen VS the Robert Pattinson Chris Hansen.
Review: This month, Chris Hansen’s subscription base should get a boost. A24’s “Primetime,” in which he’s portrayed by Robert Pattinson, opened in theaters on Friday. wapo.st/4iMNWkR

To some, Chris Hansen of “To Catch a Predator” is an overzealous TV hack, thrilled to ruin the lives of people who never so much as touched a child. To fans of TruBlu, his online crime-themed network, Hansen is a crusader against evil. wapo.st/4iMNWkR

My colleague just completed a dream assignment: Go on a catch with Chris Hansen. In light of "Primetime," check out this brilliant profile of Chris by Geoff Edgers. washingtonpost.com/style/202…

Let’s take it easy. 216 wins. Tommy John had 288. HOF is a privilege not a right.
I'll say it again. Not being in the hall does not take away my rings, my trophies, my memories, my teammates nor the fans respect. They wanted me to have the ball when it mattered; that's what mattered to me. I have my rings, trophies, Clemente award and the respect of pretty much every single guy I played with.

I'm hearing people say they will no longer subscribe to The Washington Post, but there are still great writers there doing great work - that's what your subscription is funding. Without The Post, we wouldn't have good stories like this one: wapo.st/4arCIML
