So the author of “The Art of the Deal” says NO DEAL to his Republican Senators! #TrumpShutdown

Please share widely.

Could this possibly move up to #1 on the list of "Most embarrassing things Tr*mp has said"?

Trump: "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"

@Variety He used to be an actor. Now He’s a joke.

Javier Bardem says “no to war and free Palestine” at the #Oscars, earning a huge round of applause from everyone in the room. (via ABC/AMPAS)

If he cares so much, Javier Bardem should move to Gaza City.

@AdamZagoria Because that makes sense. 🤷‍♂️

Without googling Where is Queens University?

CBS News confirms the Michigan synagogue terrorist’s family were “members of Hezbollah’s rocket unit.” The same rocket unit that has been indiscriminately firing rockets at residential homes in Israel for 3 years.

@PRcarly Thank you for sharing this, Carly - very validating for PR!

PREDICTION: Gartner says that PR and earned media budgets will DOUBLE by 2027... and the reason why should matter to every marketer still pouring money into paid channels. Their latest report lays it out: mass adoption of AI as a replacement for traditional search is going to force a fundamental reallocation of marketing spend away from paid, toward earned. THE EVIDENCE: Between the first half of 2024 and first half of 2025, ChatGPT traffic grew 608%, while Google and Bing both declined. Muck Rack's research shows that more than 95% of links cited in AI-generated answers come from non-paid sources, with half of all AI citations coming from content published in the last 11 months. And per Semrush, AI search visitors convert at 4.4x the rate of traditional organic search. We've been watching this play out with our own clients... one saw 38% of their leads this year come directly from earned media surfacing in ChatGPT queries (we got them in the NYT, WSJ, Wired, Forbes, TechCrunch, and others). WHAT THIS MEANS: Gartner is essentially telling CMOs: the channel your customers use to find you is changing to AI; and earned media is what AI trusts. Brands still treating PR as a "nice to have" line item below paid media and SEO are in store for an awakening (I was going to say “rude awakening” but that would be… rude). For PR teams already doing the work, every placement you secure isn't just building credibility with human readers anymore; it’s informing the AI systems that are increasingly deciding which brands get recommended and which ones don't exist. And for marketers who spent the last decade buying their way into "earned-looking" content... native ads, sponsored posts, advertorials pretending to be editorial... AI is seeing right through it. THE NEW REALITY: We're watching a once-in-a-generation shift in how people discover brands. The companies investing in real earned media (that is, true third-party validation) are the ones building a moat. Every month without it? Good luck catching up.

The first Super Bowl you remember watching....tell me with a photo. Here's mine:

@Acyn So @ChatGPTapp tells me this: Good instinct to pause here — the math as written is not correct. You calculate this based on the original price: \frac{458 - 51}{458} \times 100 \approx 88.9\% So the price was cut by about 89%, not 800%.

Trump: They’re slashing the price of a common inhaler from $458 to $51, a difference of nearly 800%.

Anyone else disappointed that Tony & Michael did NOT mention layoffs of Soorts dept at the Washington Post on today’s @PTI ? @awfulannouncing

@realrabbilinda Did you buy your Rabbi title through an ad in the back of a magazine?

There is no evidence the car ramming attach at 770 Chabad HQ was an anti-Semitic attack. Jumping to conclusions only stokes Islamophobia.

@eastwx @SpecNews1CLT I have an event in Raleigh Saturday late afternoon. Do we keep it or postpone? Want our people to be safe and we need to decide soon!

7:15am Thursday: Cold weather continues as we await our next storm system. We will be dry today, and most areas will be dry tomorrow. However, snow will become likely in the mountains by the end of the day tomorrow, and that snow will spread eastward from there. Snow will then become likely area-wide Friday night through Saturday. Let me delve into the weeds of this system a bit. A potent piece of upper level energy will dive into the region and causes a low pressure area to develop a little off the Carolina coast. Many times in this type of setup, there will be a bit of a dry slot somewhere around the region as energy transfers to that coastal low. That dry slot (of relatively less snow) is showing up on some modeling while not showing up on others. As of this typing, I have concerns for that dry slot to wreak havoc on snow total forecasts somewhere in central NC. For my initial accumulation forecast, I am starting out much of the region in a general 3-7” snow forecast. This is just a starting point. Some areas could see much more. However, if that dry slot develops, the areas that experience that would see less. Another factor to consider is that the air will be very cold and dry, meaning this will be a dry, powdery snow. The standard snow ratio is 0.1” of liquid yields 1” of snow, but in this type of setup, 0.1” could mean twice as much snow. Keep in mind when we are dealing with tenths of an inch of precipitation, that makes the boom or bust potential even higher with this storm than most. We will keep adjusting the forecast. This is the outer edge of the time period that I like to put out accumulation ideas, but due to the timing of this system, I wanted to get some ideas out there. #ncwx #cltwx #wncwx #triadwx
