The 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, hosted by South African comedian Trevor Noah and boasting powerhouse performers Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, BTS, Billie Eilish, Post Malone and Megan Thee Stallion, drew a scant audience for CBS. This year’s telecast was the lowest-rated in Grammys history in the early numbers. Per Nielsen Live+Same Day fast-affiliate numbers, Music’s Biggest Night garnered an average of 7.88 million viewers for the network during the ceremony’s broadcast on Sunday night at 8 p.m. ET with a 1.9 rating in adults 18-49.

Comments:

I used to look forward to watching the Grammys. Now I couldn't name even one "pop" hit on the charts.

"Powerhouse performers." Well, that's problem right there. We don't have a culture, we have a clown show.

At the risk of derision and being accused of musical snobbery, the names of the "artists" that I now know of or care about has dwindled to a mere handfull. There are a lot of different "genres" of musical catagories, but most have devolved away from my musical tastes. Overly political with most attention paid to 'flash' and attention getting instead of music. With the Oscar nominations coming out, which program will get lower ratings? By determining which nominee is more 'work' or anti-social, its easy to pick the "winners'-- very few could stand comparison to the truly great performances of yesteryear, but somebody has to "win"

I didn't watch the Grammys; what's that? Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, Silk Sonic is all I can say about the Grammys. I watched their video on Bruno Mars' channel, the official and the one they did for this show. Throwback music making a heavy comeback with "Leave the Door Open." I've been listening to a looped GoogleTube version all day. You know it's got to be good! A little bit of EWF, Dramatics, Jacksons, Heatwave, Cameo, Bootsy Collins, AWB, Stylistics, ConFunShun, and a little bit of 70s Soft Rock! Here for it all day! Good music. The young people today (since the end of the 90s) don't know good music.

Forgot to mention that the young men in this group are all musicians. I've never seen them use backup dancers either. If they have dancing in their sets, they do it themselves. Anderson Paak is a singing drummer.

The music is crap and so are most of the so called entertainers. The musical acts from decades ago were also not much to look at, but the music was at least fairly good.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, along with other Senate Dems, are urging the president to cancel $50,000 in student loan debt by using executive authority. Senators Schumer and Elizabeth Warren revealed a legal review on the use of executive authority is underway by the U.S. Department of Justice. Executive action has already been used by Biden to continue the suspension of student loan payments until the end of September 2021. Warren spoke to reporters on Monday and slammed student loan debt for "crushing millions of Americans."

The year 2021 could be a particularly “dangerous” year for Spain, thanks to Islamic State terrorists posing as migrants entering via Europe with “instructions” to attack, among other targets, churches in Spain. [SNIP] One of the more recent threats concerns Santiago de Compostela, a Christian shrine in Galicia, in the furthest northwest of the peninsula. Several messages among Muslim migrants mentioning it as a potential target have been intercepted, placing the pilgrimage site on high alert and tightening restrictions concerning foreign visitors from hotspot nations, such as Syria, Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson has slammed a performance at Sunday night's Grammy Awards saying it was 'intentionally trying to degrade our culture and hurt our children.' Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's dance routine for their song WAP contained x-rated pole-dancing by the pair leading to criticism online and one anti-porn group labeled the performance as 'hardcore' porn. The dueling rappers left little to the imagination in their ode to female anatomy, marking the first time they've performed the hit live.

The Biden administration has managed to quickly duplicate the Obama administration's disastrous foreign policy of appeasement. Now it's busy copying its opposition campaign. One of the dumber campaigns by the Obama administration was Operation Rushbo. Operation Rushbo was a campaign by Obama's people to target Rush Limbaugh personally, as the most outspoken voice in the conservative movement, and to, seemingly 'destroy' the conservative movement by making Limbaugh into its public face. [SNIP] Now, the Biden administration has decided to relaunch Operation Rushbo to target Tucker Carlson.

The Justice Department and FBI are gathering evidence to try to build a large conspiracy indictment against members of the Oath Keepers for their roles in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, according to people familiar with the matter, but the group’s sometimes fractious and fantasy-laden internal workings may complicate efforts to bring such a case. In the wake of the short-lived insurrection, the Oath Keepers is the most high-profile, self-styled militia group in the country. While members use the jargon and trappings of a paramilitary organization, in daily practice they are often more akin to a collection of local chapters with a similar, conspiracy theory-fueled ideology..."

The media loves to churn out, "What we don't talk about when we talk about X" pieces. Those pieces are invariably talking about the things that the media talks about non-stop. Meanwhile, many of the things that it does talk about have notable omissions. Anti-Asian hate crimes are constantly talked about, but not who's committing them. Oakland’s Chinatown had suffered over 20 attacks against the elderly and women in two weeks. The wave of attacks against Asian people in Oakland, like the previous attacks in New York that I documented, are being carried out by minorities with a criminal record, not by conservatives.

Rep. Anthony Gonzalez put his political career at risk when he voted to impeach Donald Trump in January for his role in the U.S. Capitol riot. The decision created backlash and political opponents within his own Republican Party. But, at least one Republican group, has his back. The Republican Accountability Project launched a $1 million television and billboard campaign to express support for all Republicans who voted for impeachment. Defending Democracy Together, a right-learning anti-Trump advocacy group, is behind the initiative.

In the traditional version, only one of the gun's six chambers contains a bullet. In the college version of Russian roulette, 5 of the 6 chambers contain a bullet.

Anastasia Hanson, 56, of California told Britain’s the Sun that she started the fundraising effort because she seriously felt sorry for the multimillionaire royal couple—after Harry publicly whined to Oprah Winfrey about being financially cut off by Buckingham Palace. “When they came to the USA, they were without jobs and with limited funds,” said Hanson, who lives about 25 minutes from the princely pair’s palatial estate in swanky Montecito.
