FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez, the agency’s only Democrat, stated that the recent decision is a severe attack on First Amendment rights – the worst she’s seen from the FCC. She also noted that moving up the renewal dates for Disney’s licenses – some of which weren’t up for renewal for another five years – is something the agency hasn’t done in decades. Gomez described the move as a clear attempt to punish a broadcast network, silence dissenting voices, and retaliate against individuals within the network, calling it “outrageous.” She warned that media companies can’t assume giving in to demands will protect them from future actions that violate their First Amendment rights.

Courteney Cox acknowledged the intense work environment on Friends, recalling that the writers – primarily men – often worked until 3am. She said she didn’t care what people said about her privately, as long as it meant the show was getting done. This comment came in response to a 2000 lawsuit filed by a writers’ assistant, Amaani Lyle, against Warner Bros. and three Friends writers/producers (Adam Chase, Gregory Malins, and Andrew Reich). Lyle alleged sexual harassment, but the case was dismissed because the offensive comments weren’t directed at her personally.
I’m so excited for the new Toy Story movie! It’s been a while – seven years since the last one and sixteen since Toy Story 3, which honestly felt like a good ending at the time. But now, Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the whole gang are facing a new challenge: Bonnie has a tablet named Lilypad, and it’s changing everything for them. I can’t wait to see how they handle it!
