Why 'The View' Fans Are Urged to Speak Out Against FCC New

Why 'The View' Fans Are Urged to Speak Out Against FCC

ABC launched a campaign Monday to urge viewers to complain about the Federal Communications Commission’s investigation into daytime talk show “The View.”The network’s ad urges viewers to scan a QR code that directs them to the FCC’s website where they can leave public comments, according to the New York Times.“‘The View’ has welcomed your favorite guests for nearly 30 years. Now the FCC wants to control who is allowed the appear on the show. Tell the FCC to let the viewers decide,” ABC’s campaign states, according to the outlet.The FCC did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comments.The ad is running all day Monday in cities around the United States such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, and Fresno, according to the New York Times.In February, the FCC launched an investigation into “The View” regarding whether the show violated equal-time rules for politicians after it aired an interview with Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico. The agency is also probing ABC over the diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives of its parent company Disney, according to the Wall Street Journal.US President Barack Obama appears on the ABC daytime television talk show, “The View” in New York, July 28, 2010, alongside hosts (L-R) Whoopi Goldberg, Barbara Walters, Joy Behar, Sherri Shepherd and Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

Clive Davis: The Music Mogul's Legacy After a Life-Changing Epiphany New

Clive Davis: The Music Mogul's Legacy After a Life-Changing Epiphany

Music executive Clive Davis has died at age 94. The New York Times reported on Tuesday, June 22, that Davis died one day prior at his home in Manhattan. His death was confirmed by his family. Davis had recently been hospitalized with respiratory problems. A spokesperson for the mogul told TMZ in late May that he was suffering from “an upper respiratory infection and out of an abundance of caution, he was admitted to the hospital.” Davis rose to fame at Columbia Records and became one of the most powerful execs in the industry, where he worked alongside notable names like Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Barry Manilow and more. His last position in the music industry was chief creative officer of Sony Music Entertainment. During his career, Davis won five Grammys — including the Recording Academy’s Trustees Award in 2000. In celebration of the awards ceremony, Davis also famously brought together music executives and artists for an annual party at the Beverly Hilton. He had held the event since 1976, with the 2021 party being held online due to the pandemic. In 2013, Davis got candid about his ability to hear talent in the industry. “I didn’t necessarily have an ear, but I think I developed one,” he admitted to Playboy magazine at the time. “Whether there was a natural ear that was triggered, I don’t know the answer to that. But when you see a Joplin or a Springsteen, you know. And the statistics start mounting and give you confidence. You think, ‘My God, yeah, I did say yes to Santana.'” In the same interview, Davis opened up about the moment when he first began thinking of signing musicians. “I had finished my freshman year of college and lost both parents within 10 months of each other. I had a support group with a sister and an aunt with whom I was close, but that was a tough time,” he recalled. “I was in a Jewish family and grew up in the public school system of New York, and there was a work ethic that I was left with that said the way you rise above your station is to become either a doctor or a lawyer. I never loved science, but I did love politics and government, so I became an attorney. By some accident, the company I worked for owned a record company. Soon I was running it.” He continued, “That’s when I went to the Monterey Pop Festival. It was the 1960s and the time of Haight-Ashbury, but I had no idea what awaited me. I thought the Monterey Pop Festival was a social event where I would see Simon & Garfunkel and the Mamas and the Papas and be with my friend [the producer] Lou Adler. My life changed there. I sensed a total social, cultural, musical revolution, and my peers in the music business had no idea. They didn’t see it; they just were not there. That’s probably the epiphany that changed my life. Janis Joplin was performing there, and I went on to sign her.”

Cardi B is back from tour — and back at the Chanel boutique.The “Up” rapper took her followers along for a designer haul Sunday night, unveiling four Chanel handbags worth a combined $52,000 in a TikTok video.The bags all came from the brand’s Métiers d’Art 2026 collection, which artistic director Matthieu Blazy debuted at an abandoned downtown subway station in Manhattan last December.Cardi B took her TikTok followers along for a four-bag Chanel haul on Sunday night. tikTok/iamcardibThe “WAP” rapper called the $8,400 Chanel 25 mini her hardest-to-score piece from the brand. tikTok/iamcardibShe named the $29,500 burgundy giraffe flap bag her favorite of the haul. TikTok/iamcardib“I love a green bag,” she said of her larger Chanel 25 leather hobo. TikTok/iamcardibFirst up: the Chanel 25 mini handbag ($8,400) in furry cheetah-effect lambskin. “This is the hardest bag to get at Chanel,” she said. “I got so lucky getting her. I’m trying to get her sister.”Cardi already got a chance to flaunt the coveted bag during the Knicks’ NBA finals run, carrying it to Game 3 ahead of her halftime performance despite Donald Trump’s bag ban.Next came a kelly green Chanel 25 small in caviar leather (resale: $10,500), a larger take on the furry style. “I love a green bag, because it goes with blue, reds, and it’s a fun color to wear in the daytime with like sporty looks,” she said.The Bronx native, who wrapped her “Little Miss Drama” tour in April, also flashed a Superman-inspired vanity bag ($3,575) — a nod to the collection’s NYC superhero theme — alongside a pair of red knee-high boots with a Wonder Woman vibe.“I think I’m gonna wear them when I try to save the world,” she joked. “Gotta wear something fly when I save New York City.”Cardi also picked up a $3,575 vanity bag with a Superman-inspired enamel logo. TikTok/iamcardibRounding out the haul were a pair of knee-high Wonder Woman-style boots, which the mom of four joked were for “saving the world.” TikTok/iamcardibCardi flaunted the rare spotted bag courtside at Game 3 of the Knicks’ recent NBA Finals run.

Cardi B/InstagramHer favorite, though, was a burgundy giraffe flap bag, which is selling on the resale market for $30,000 — a gilded giraffe figurine with a Chanel bag for a torso.“She is gorge. Isn’t she so cute?” Cardi said. “I got the perfect outfit for this bag. I just don’t know where I’m gonna wear it.”The “WAP” hitmaker, who wrapped her record-breaking Little Miss Drama Tour in April, signed off teasing a bigger spree to come.“I’m gonna do another haul when I go out the country,” she said. “And don’t get it twisted, just because you see these things — I don’t have no money. This is all an illusion.”

Instagram/bailey.zimmermanPage Six can confirm that the country musician was charged with criminal damage to property (over $1000). Instagram/bailey.zimmermanThe alleged incident took place the same night the singer — who is currently on his “Different Night Same Rodeo” tour — cancelled his show in Albuquerque, New Mexico.At the time, the “Fall in Love” crooner took to Instagram to share he had “not been feeling well” and needed to take time to recover.“Y’all know there’s nothing I love more than getting out on the road and playing these shows for you,” he wrote at the time. “So it’s so hard for me to have to say this, but I have to reschedule tonight’s (5/27) and Saturday’s (5/30) shows.I have not been feeling well and have tried to power through, but I’m not able to give you all the show you deserve. I hate letting y’all down and was really looking forward to these shows, but I gotta take care of myself so I can get back out there stronger,” he continued.The musician (pictured at the 2025 BMI Country Awards) was also charged with a misdemeanor charge for falsely obtaining services.

Democrats Slam Trump Despite Historic Iran Peace Deal New

Democrats Slam Trump Despite Historic Iran Peace Deal

Several prominent Democrats who positioned themselves as anti-war politicians at the onset of the Iran War have recently proved they hate President Donald Trump more than they hate a bloody, costly Middle East conflict.One would think that if a Democrat truly believed the Iran War was such a catastrophe for the U.S., the people of Iran and the Middle East region as a whole, a peace deal — even one orchestrated in part by Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance — would be welcomed. If peace is the ultimate goal, should it matter if the peacemaker is the Orange Man from Queens? It really shouldn’t, if one is deeply opposed to war. (RELATED: Trump Temporarily Lifts Sanctions On Iranian Oil After Pledge To Allow Nuclear Inspectors Into The Country)Despite the significant progress made by the Trump White House in finally bringing the Iran War to an end, opportunistic Democrats have met what could have been a moment of refreshing unity with the White House with typical anti-Trump rancor instead.Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer suggested June 18 that the administration would need Congressional authorization for the peace talks to proceed.“If Trump wants to send hundreds of billions of dollars to Iran,” he wrote on X, “he’ll need to do it with Republican votes. Democrats will not be helping Trump send $300 billion to Iran.” The U.S. is worse off because of Trump’s incompetence, his ego, and his inability to listen to facts. If Trump wants to send hundreds of billions of dollars to Iran, he’ll need to do with Republican votes. Democrats will not be helping Trump send $300 billion to Iran. — Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) June 18, 2026He did some damage control a few hours later: “As I’ve said from day one, this reckless, illegal war was a mistake and it’s no surprise it led to a shameful deal. This war must end.” As I’ve said from day one, this reckless, illegal war was a mistake and it’s no surprise it led to a shameful deal. This war must end. — Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) June 19, 2026Democratic Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy said the deal was “humiliating” and attacked MOU proposal #6 specifically. The proposal states: “The United States of America undertakes, with regional partners, to develop a definitive mutually agreed plan with at least USD 300 Billion, for the reconstruction and economic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran.”However, Murphy characterized it as a “reparations payment,” and suggested taxpayers would be on the hook. In reality, the MOU just says the U.S. has committed to a plan to create the fund; it’s not a direct payment to Iran; and the U.S. won’t be responsible for funding all of it. The humiliating Iran deal requires the U.S. to come up with a $300 billion reparations payment to Iran. That’s more than Iran’s entire GDP. Trump says taxpayers won’t pay for it. 1/ So I compiled a helpful list. pic.twitter.com/VuAJJu0vS0 — Chris Murphy 🟧 (@ChrisMurphyCT) June 19, 2026Democratic Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar tried a similar attack.“With $300 billion, we could end homelessness, fund cancer research for 40 years, and give every child free pre-K for over 7 years. Instead, Trump is sending it to Iran. This is not America First. Not even close,” she wrote June 16. With $300 billion, we could end homelessness, fund cancer research for 40 years, and give every child free pre-K for over 7 years. Instead, Trump is sending it to Iran. This is not America First. Not even close. — Amy Klobuchar (@amyklobuchar) June 16, 2026Democratic New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker ripped the MOU during an appearance Sunday on “Meet the Press.” Booker was responding to a comment made by Democratic strategist James Carville, who recently urged Democrats to give Trump some credit.“Let’s give Trump credit where credit’s due,” Carville said June 18. “He did what Lyndon Johnson did not do in Vietnam. Just get out. He didn’t do what [George W.] Bush and even Obama did in Afghanistan. Just get out.”Booker wanted none of it.“That’s like giving somebody credit for literally an arsonist starting a fire and getting credit for running out of the burning building,” the senator said. “This president has led this nation into a disaster. We have surrendered our power. We have capitulated to the enemy.”Democratic Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton slammed the MOU, as well, describing it as “basically a surrender document.” Moulton previously tried to bring the war to an end by co-sponsoring a bipartisan War Powers Resolution, which was designed to limit presidential authority to deploy troops without Congress’s approval.Democratic California Rep. Ro Khanna, who describes himself as anti-war, argued in a Fox News op-ed Monday that although the end to fighting between the U.S. and Iran is “good news,” the MOU deal is weaker than former President Barack Obama’s 2015 deal.“The ceasefire deal [Trump] and Vice President Vance negotiated delivers Iran a better deal than the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) Trump spent years ridiculing,” he wrote.The California congressman is clearly trying to thread a delicate needle: praising the end of the war while still hitting the president. In other words, he’s being a typical politician.

Jennifer Meyer Welcomes Baby No. 3: The Moment Everyone's Talking About New

Jennifer Meyer Welcomes Baby No. 3: The Moment Everyone's Talking About

Tobey Maguire’s ex-wife, Jennifer Meyer, is officially a mom of three after welcoming her first baby with fiancé Geoffrey Ogunlesi. "A perfect month with our perfect baby girl. We love you the most @geoffo212 �� Happy Father’s Day♥️," Meyer, 49, wrote in a sweet Father's Day tribute shared via Instagram on Sunday, June 21. Meyer and Maguire previously welcomed daughter Ruby in November 2006 and son Otis in May 2009. The exes announced their separation in October 2016 after nine years of marriage, finalizing their divorce four years later in 2020. Meyer moved on with Ogunlesi, revealing their engagement in August 2024. The following year, she shared that the couple were expecting their first baby together. “Hey baby girl �� We love love love you!! ��,” she wrote via Instagram at the time as she debuted her pregnant belly. In the comments section, Ogunlesi replied, “WE LOVE YOU.” Prior to expanding her family, Meyer discussed her friendly dynamic with Maguire on multiple occasions. “He’s my best friend,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in January 2018. “He’s the greatest ex-husband a girl could ever have.” Later that year, Meyer explained how she approached coparenting with Maguire. “Remember that you love your kids equally more than anything in the world and that you want the best for them,” she told Us in September 2018. “And if they see parents that don’t get along or fight, then they’re going to be unhappy, and nobody wants unhappy children.” Meyer gushed over the joys of motherhood at the time, saying of her kids, “Anywhere with them makes me happy. Give me a good Saturday night on the couch with them and a movie, and I’m thrilled.” Weeks before revealing her third pregnancy, Meyer reflected on her divorce from Maguire during a December 2025 appearance on the “Inside Edit” podcast. “He is wonderful and I got lucky for that,” she shared. “My life was not easy every day, and I’m sure he would say the same thing. We definitely had to overcome some big hurdles.” Going to therapy together after their split changed everything for Meyer and Maguire. “I now have an ex-husband who is my best friend and would do anything for me, and I would do anything for him — anything in the world,” she said. “[He is] the best dad, the best ex-husband, the best friend [and] the most generous.” The exes maintained a closeness for the benefit of both their children and themselves as parents. “I knew and Tobey knew [that we] didn’t want to say, ‘Which Christmas is yours, which Thanksgiving is mine,’” she explained. “My heart will shatter [if we split up holidays]. … I don’t want to miss a day with Ruby and Otis, I just don’t want to.” As for Maguire’s relationship with Ogunlesi, Meyer raved, “The cutest part is Tobey and my fiancé, Geoff, love each other so much.”

Nancy Guthrie's Ransom Note Apology Raises More Questions New

Nancy Guthrie's Ransom Note Apology Raises More Questions

One of the ransom notes sent regarding Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance in February issued a “sputtering and labored” apology for her inadvertent death, according to a new report.Sources close to the investigation told Air Mail, in a piece published Saturday, that the message arrived on Feb. 6 with a “new, less confident tone” than a previous note from the same I.P. address.Savannah Guthrie’s mom’s alleged kidnapper went on to float the possibility of returning the 84-year-old’s body for money, with the amount not specified.A ransom note issued in February regarding the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie reportedly apologized for her death. Facebook/Savanah GuthrieSources close to the investigation told Air Mail the message, sent on Feb. 6, was “sputtering” and “labored.” Instagram/savannahguthrieThe individual previously — hours after Nancy was reported missing from her Tucson, Arizona, home on Feb. 1 — asked for $4 million for Nancy’s safe return.At the time, the message referred to the matriarch as feeling “safe but scared.”The message asked that the millions in Bitcoin be sent by Feb. 5 — “or else” — and bumped the number up to $6 million if not received by Feb. 9.Instead of sending the hefty sum, officials sent $152 to the Bitcoin address in question — hoping to tempt the person to extract the money as cash and, therefore, become traceable.A note from the same I.P. address had described the 84-year-old as “safe but scared” days prior. Instagram/savannahguthrieA request for $4 million was made at the time — “or else.” James Keivom for NY PostThe amount was untouched, however.This weekend’s report labeled this unsuccessful attempt to “tickl[e] the wire” a critical error in the investigation’s early days.Guthrie’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.The “Today” show co-host seemingly spoke to Hoda Kotb about those specific ransom notes in her first interview discussing the family tragedy in March.Nancy (pictured above in February 2013) was reported missing on Feb. 1. NBCHer abductor was captured in security camera footage outside her Tucson, Arizona, home. FBI via Getty Images“I believe the two notes that we received that we responded to, I tend to believe those are real,” she said at the time.She and her siblings — brother Camron Guthrie and sister Annie Guthrie — directly addressed the alleged abductor in multiple Instagram videos, pleading for their mom’s return.After the Feb. 6 message with the apology, she said, “We received your message and understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us, so that we can celebrate with her.”Savannah called this “valuable” and offered to pay the ransom.Savannah and her siblings have repeatedly appealed to their mom’s kidnappers via Instagram. Instagram/savannahguthrieSavannah (pictured above in June 2023) has offered to pay a ransom — and acknowledged Nancy may be “gone” — on multiple occasions. Nathan Congleton/NBC via Getty ImagesLater that same month, Savannah again offered $1 million for Nancy’s return.“We know that she may be lost,” the journalist said in the emotional footage. “She may already be gone. … And if this is what is to be, then we will accept it, but we need to know where she is. We need her to come home.”Savannah returned to work at Studio 1A in April as Nancy’s kidnapper, who was seen in security camera footage from Nancy’s residence the night of her disappearance, remains at large as the investigation enters its fifth month.
