Jeffrey Epilogue: “The documents also provide a fresh window into Epstein’s behavior during his 36 days in jail, including his previously unreported attempt to connect by mail with another high-profile pedophile: Larry Nassar, the U.S. gymnastics team doctor convicted of sexually abusing scores of athletes.” New details of Jeffrey Epstein’s death and the frantic aftermath revealed in records obtained by AP.

We probably could have brought it to a head now, but we’ve made the decision that it would be unfair to these players and these teams to announce that decision in the middle of this series.” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver says the Ja Morant Investigation Verdict Will Come After 2023 NBA Finals.

+ Cable Nonsense Network: “CEO Chris Licht felt he was on a mission to restore the network’s reputation for serious journalism. How did it all go wrong?” The Atlantic: Inside the Meltdown at CNN. (You can’t restore CNN with panels and townhalls. You can only restore it with actual news coverage.)
