However, in a surprise to some fans,This Morning’s flagship hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield are not in contention for any awards this year.

Last summer, Washington Post “Fact-checker” columnist Glenn Kessler wrote that the Medicare for All plan favored by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-vt) would cause “providers” to face an “immediate cut of 40 percent in their payments.” The piece was quickly amended to reflect that the cuts only referred to private insurance payments, leaving Medicare recipients untouched. A few days later, Kessler would repeat — and later correct again — the same error.
Now, Kessler is fact-checking another statement made by Sanders, this one about the financial crisis in South Carolina:

President Donald Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen threatened to sue CNBC to get his boss higher placement on the cable network’s list of top business leaders after Cohen’s efforts to rig the polling failed, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Cohen threatened to sue on the dubious legal grounds of “ignoring the will of the people,” WSJ reported, which may explain why the news network did not respond to the threat, and why Trump did not sue, according to the report.
CNBC declined to comment.
The kerfuffle erupted when Trump failed to break into the Top 100 finalists on CNBC’s ranking of people who it determined had the most profound impact on business and finance since 1989, which was the year CNBC went live.

Will Michael Stuhlbarg earn his first career Emmy nomination for “The Looming Tower”? He co-stars in the Hulu limited series as Richard Clarke, the real life chief counter-terrorism adviser on the National Security Council in the years leading up to the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. This role follows an awards season in which the actor achieved the rare feat of appearing in three Best Picture nominees: “Call Me by Your Name,” “The Post” and the eventual winner “The Shape of Water.” But Stuhlbarg himself wasn’t nominated. Emmy voters may want to make it up to him.
It’s perhaps surprising that Stuhlbarg hasn’t been nominated for an Oscar yet given his roles in numerous Oscar contending films including “A Serious Man” (2009), “Hugo” (2011), “Lincoln” (2012), “Blue Jasmine” (2013) and “Arrival” (2016), in addition to his three nominated films from 2017. But you might say the same thing about the Emmys. Stuhlbarg spent four...

Baz Luhrmann's over-the-top take on Gatsby suggests we've recovered from recession and are ready to worship wealth again
When I first saw the trailer for The Great Gatsby film, my first thought was: why now? Gatsby is akin to America's version of Jane Austen books. It's part of the country's social fabric. It is widely read in high schools and remade for film and television every few years.
Then it hit me: opulence. After a horrendous few years for people's wallets, luxury is unabashedly back, and this latest film adaptation is like an invitation to celebrate it.
The Great Gatsby is a homage to wealth and social status in New York City. Already there's a certain clamour about the costumes. Fashion magazines like Marie Claire are gushing about the Prada-designed outfits. Even the film's makeup is a topic of intrigue. Carey Mulligan, who plays Gatsby's love interest Daisy, is playing it up.

The Federal Reserve has cut interest rates six times by a total of 300 basis points since mid-September, the fastest pace of reductions in two decades.
Along with the past four declines in interest rates though also has come a big drop in entertainment stocks, even though lower rates are supposed to stimulate the economy and the business of economy-driven sectors, such as ad-dependent media and consumer spending-reliant entertainment firms.
The Hollywood Reporter's Showbiz 50 stock index closed Monday at $1,184.10, compared with its year-high of $1,375.53 that it hit just after the Fed's second rate decrease in the current easing cycle. That's a drop of 13.9%.
But industry expert and investor Hal Vogel said he isn't all too surprised that media stocks and rates have moved in tandem in recent months. "Despite the conventional Wall Street wisdom, declining interest rates are accompanied by declining stock prices perhaps half the time," he says.
Also, rate cuts take time to work their magic, and some investors actually might have been spooked out of stocks by the fast Fed cuts under chairman Ben Bernanke given that some on the Street have seen them as a sign of panic.
