The case of Woody Allen’s alleged abuse of his 7-year-old daughter Dylan has been known and debated about for years, but the Allen v. Farrow proves that the public’s understanding has always been missing some key puzzle pieces. Thanks to the storytelling of Oscar-nominated documentarians Kirby Dick, Amy Ziering, (The Invisible War, On the Record) and especially that of their producer–investigative journalist Amy Herdy, the in-depth four-part HBO documentary series provides a closer look at the private experiences that were happening parallel to the 1992 media circus. In episode two, it was the home video of young Dylan talking to her mother Mia Farrow about the alleged abuse after it happened, a piece of harrowing evidence that had never been seen by...

Adam Silver is powerless in a lot of ways. He can suggest and nudge but cannot exert his force of will on pressing issues. He’ll do his best on bringing up issues of diversity in the coaching ranks, knowing billionaires will do what they want no matter the public appearance. Silver can know what having an All-Star Game in midst of a pandemic in Atlanta will do for his league’s reputation, but is well-aware the NBA needs it for its financial bottom line. The mixed messages rightly made the public question its intentions considering the NBA positioned itself as some bastion of morality when it’s impossible to satisfy billionaires, partner with players and have a conscience at the same time. But Silver can maximize his capital in getting the players on board, or at least on the same page, wi...

The European Commission has approved Microsoft’s $7.5 billion deal to acquire ZeniMax Media, the parent company of Doom and Fallout studio Bethesda Softworks. Microsoft’s deal has been approved by the EU without conditions, as it “does not raise serious doubts as to its compatibility with the common market.” The acquisition required EU approval before Microsoft could finalize the Bethesda deal and bring future games to its Xbox Game Pass subscription. “The Commission concluded that the proposed acquisition would raise no competition concerns, given the combined entity’s limited market position upstream and the presence of strong downstream competitors in the distribution of video games,” says a European Commission statement. “The transaction was examined under the normal merger rev...

In many districts of the biggest city, Yangon, on Saturday and Sunday, witnesses reported sounds of gunfire and stun grenades. Terrified residents watched and filmed as security forces raided residential areas in the city and made several nighttime arrests. Residents told Reuters police fired shots and did not give reasons for the arrests, which continued into the early hours of Sunday. "On the night of his arrest, Khin Maung Latt was tortured to death in his cell," AAPP said in a news release Sunday. Reports of bruising to Khin Maung Latt's head and body raised suspicions he had been abused, NLD lawmaker Ba Myo Thein told Reuters. CNN cannot independently verify this reporting and the details surrounding Khin Maung Latt's death are not immediately clear. Khin Maung Latt had worked as a c...

European stocks rose on Monday while U.S. technology stock futures slumped, with bond yields near one-year highs as the world’s largest economy was on the verge of adding $1.9 trillion in stimulus. The U.S. Senate over the weekend passed its version of the $1.9 trillion stimulus package, sending it back to the U.S. House for approval before President Joe Biden can sign it into law. The surge in bond yields — with the 10-year Treasury TMUBMUSD10Y, 1.592% up 64 basis points in 2021, through Friday — has led investors to rotate from assets perceived as having stretched valuations, like companies in the tech sector, and into out-of-favor sectors with less demanding valuations. The Stoxx Europe 600 SXXP, +0.98% ...
