@isalara @MariaCorinaYA Thanks Isabel! It was a fascinating conversation.

EXCELLENT @NPRKelly intv w @MariaCorinaYA She asked what I'd like to understand: You need the support of the US & Pres Trump so badly, you handed him your Nobel Peace Prize but he has questioned your ability to lead & has openly supported your rivals? npr.org/2026/05/11/nx-…

Ted Turner in the late 1990s made the bold and brave step of opening a CNN bureau in Saddam Hussein's Baghdad. I was the correspondent. He believed that if Americans could see that other people were much like them, there would be fewer wars. He believed in journalism.

@autismstepdad @Variety Same.

@Variety @NPRKelly I so love this comment.

Jane Fonda pays tribute to her former husband, Ted Turner: “He swept into my life, a gloriously handsome, deeply romantic, swashbuckling pirate and I’ve never been the same,” Fonda wrote on Instagram. “He needed me. No one had ever let me know they needed me, and this wasn’t your average human being that needed me, this was the creator of CNN, and Turner Classic Movies, who had won the America’s Cup as the world’s greatest sailor. He had a big life, a brilliant mind and a soaring sense of humor." “He could also take care of me. That was new as well. To be needed and cared for simultaneously is transformative. Ted Turner helped me believe in myself. He gave me confidence. I think I did the same for him, but that’s what women are raised to do. Men like Ted aren’t supposed to express need and vulnerability. That was Ted’s greatest strength, I believe." variety.com/2026/tv/news/r…

Statement from The Atlantic's editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg:

@nakashimae Congratulations! Thrilled for you, Ellen!

I'm thrilled and honored to be among the Nieman Fellows Class of 2027. So looking forward to my year at Harvard with such exceptional colleagues. nieman.harvard.edu/the-nieman-fou…

@shashj Welcome and congratulations!

🇺🇸 Some personal news. I've had the privilege of serving as defence editor at The Economist for eight years, through the Afghan withdrawal, invasion of Ukraine & Mid East wars. This summer I'm moving to DC to take over as our Washington bureau chief. Should be a nice quiet beat.

Thanks to you, @KatrinaManson for taking my questions!

Mr. President, calling @SangerNYT a "lightweight analyst" is laughable. David earned his place as dean of the natsec press corps through decades of reporting. He taught so many of us how it's done.

@NickKristof @SangerNYT Amen.

Trump calling @SangerNYT a “lightweight analyst would be like calling Muhammad Ali a “lightweight brawler.” David represents the gold standard of 21st century journalism. I’m proud to be his colleague.

Excellent Robert Mueller remembrance by @vermontgmg, who spent dozens of hours interviewing him. Garrett notes that by the end, Mueller was operating by a code of honor and rules & norms that no longer existed in Washington... doomsdayscenario.co/p/remembering-…

@HorsleyScott @SouthwestAir This drives me bananas. Hope you (and your checked carry-on) got to wherever you're going!

@SouthwestAir It happened again. Boarding groups 7 & 8 compelled to check carry-ons, only to get on the plane and find ample open bin space. What gives?

Can confirm

@jacobsoboroff @MSNOWNews Congratulations Jacob!

I am getting my own show on @MSNOWNews. mind blown. grateful doesn’t cut it. sending love, my profound thanks and max respect to everyone for the years of support. more soon.

Israel's timeline and messaging on the Iran war are changing. Israeli officials now estimate at least 1 more week of war, I was told today. Netanyahu now saying Iran's regime may be weakened not toppled. More on the podcast with @NPRKelly @TBowmanNPR open.spotify.com/episode/5vQfoD…
