Baffled by the PR person who didn’t trust @sama to handle himself and didn’t think about how this would amplify the moment…
Mark Guiducci: “Do you know who Laura Reiley is?” Sam Altman: “I don't.” Mark Guiducci: “She is a journalist. She wrote an essay in the ‘Times’ last year. Her daughter committed suicide after speaking to ChatGPT. ChatGPT did not tell her to kill herself—” OpenAI Publicist: “Mark, We have two minutes left. I want to be respectful, but I’d like to move on and talk a little bit about the future and what’s coming.” Watch the two-part interview: vanityfair.visitlink.me/IRef…

U.S. allies in the Middle East "are certainly suffering the consequences of Iran seeking to punish the region for the war that was started by Israel and the United States," @dstroul told NPR's @NPRinskeep. "However, there is alignment that Iran is really the problem in the region, its nuclear program, its missile and drone program," she added. 🎧Listen to the full interview: npr.org/2026/09/28/nx-s1-598…

The story is from 2014, but still relevant, and the opening paragraphs are perfect.

Interesting observation
This interview has 300 retweets on Bluesky & not a single one listened to or expressed any opinion on the actual substance of what was said. Do libs just wanna lose?

It’s worth a careful listen to the NPR interview with Tucker Carlson. He does not say Trump simply made a bad choice on Iran or ignored the risks. Carlson asserts that Trump was *not in control.* “I don’t think he had the latitude to make this decision on his own.” 1/2

That thinking - that Israelis are more than influential, and actually call the tune for both US parties - leads to charges of antisemitism that Carlson denies. But watch for yourself: 2/2 steveinskeep.substack.com/p/…

On NPR’s Newsmakers, Tucker Carlson says Trump should be removed from office, and also speaks with regret about his own long career as a TV partisan. youtu.be/pHhJM3Fg9jw?is=O2w_…

… In our conversation, Carlson said the reason for his change was the war in Iran, and goes on to assert Democrats and Republicans are a “uniparty” controlled by hidden forces; he contends the war was directed by Israel. npr.org/2026/09/24/nx-s1-590…

Sometimes the person silencing you is you. That was true in “Woke 1” for many progressives and true in Trump 2 for many conservatives.
