The Completely Unnecessary News Analysis
by Christopher Smart
May 14, 2019
Salt Lake Tribune and Smart Bomb To Go Non-Profit
You've probably heard the news by now, Salt Lake City's bedrock news source, The Tribune, is going non-profit. Yep, Utah businessman Paul Huntsman, who has owned the 148-year-old paper since May 2016, is looking to make history — it would be the first major newspaper to go non-profit (if successful). Huntsman, whose family assets are worth billions, says the paper has been losing money and he just hates that. You're right, Wilson, it's already a non-profit, but it's the wrong kind. So, here's what Huntsman is going to do: Ask folks, rich and poor, as well as corporations, to build a foundation — a huge pile of money — that will produce interest and other income to underwrite the operation. It sounds so good that the crack economists here at Smart Bomb have determined to follow suit. The staff here at Smart Bomb will form a 501 (c) (3) and ask the Huntsman family for a whole bunch of money for our foundation. They probably won't even miss the millions they'll pour into the fund we're calling Smart Bomb Forever. We'd ask Spence Eccles for money, but then we'd have to name this effort the Eccles Bomb — kinda like half the buildings in Salt Lake City. Maybe this non-profit thing isn't really such a good idea. Nonetheless, we're praying The Good Ship Tribune stays afloat and that Paul Huntsman doesn't go broke and can afford to send his kids to college, after all.
NRA: More School Shootings, No Problem
You know what the NRA says: The only thing that will stop a bad high school student with a gun is a good high school student with a gun. Right on. You see, according to Wayne La Pierre, the rabid leader of the gun-rights organization, if everybody has a gun, we'll all be safer. In the end, it's all about freedom. The more guns we have, the freer we are. If every high school kid was packing — it is their constitutional right, after all — schools would be so incredibly safe. Teachers, of course, would have to be armed, too, to keep the students in line. In some cases, they'd have to be fast on the draw, given that some kids can get a little obstreperous at times, particularly when grades come out. Gym class would have to be a special exception — it's just too hard to dribble or spike a ball with a 9 mm strapped to your leg. And arguments over technical fouls could end badly. But in the big picture, it's worth it and could put an end to students going on NPR and whining about how traumatized they are after their classmates got killed in front of their eyes. And after school, kids could get together to form militias, just like the Second Amendment says: “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” It all makes such perfect sense.
Yikes, Sex Strike!
Actress Alyssa Milano has got everyone's knickers in a twist after calling on women to stop having sex (with men) in order to “protect their vaginas” and stop stupid white men from “legislating them.” This could really have a negative impact on night life, but might boost the floral and chocolate industries. Milano's proposed “sex strike” is aimed at protesting a wave of new restrictive abortion laws, including one in Utah. “[U]ntil women have legal control over our own bodies we just cannot risk pregnancy. JOIN ME by not having sex until we get bodily autonomy back... ” Milano tweeted last week. Among the new restrictions is a Georgia law that spells out criminal penalties, including jail for doctors who perform abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected (five to six weeks). New legislation in Utah outlaws abortion after 18 weeks. The landmark 1973 Supreme Court case, Roe v. Wade,  holds that it is unconstitutional for a state to disallow abortions during the first trimester (24 weeks). It's no secret the antagonistic anti-abortion laws are aimed at overturning Roe by our newly-packed conservative Supreme Court. Nonetheless, a lot of women, including Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, say bollocks to abstinence. “A #SexStrike won’t bring back our rights—voting, supporting women candidates, running for office, and fighting like hell will.” OK, men, you can breathe easy for now. But maybe next time, bring condoms.
Success — Our Parks And Ski Resorts Are Now Too Crowded
Good news, Utah's national parks are so crowded that you can barely get in. Isn't it great to be popular and successful? And it's true of our ski resorts, too. No place to park? Thank the Utah Office of Tourism and Ski Utah. But who cares if Utahns can no longer enjoy their natural treasures, we're making money. Well, someone's making money, anyway. It's just what a good capitalistic model is based on — more, more and more. Think dollar signs. Think profits. Think everyone in the world wanting to come here. Utah's multi-million dollar “Mighty Five” (national parks) advertising campaign is gangbusters, according to The Salt Lake Tribune's crack environmental reporter, Brian Maffly. Our parks are now so overcrowded that the Office of Tourism is pushing visitors to other places in Utah, so they can become overcrowded, too. Isn't that nice. But not everyone is happy. There are some frowny faces out there. People are complaining about traffic, crowds and prices. Their values are obviously misplaced. They've been reading too much Ed Abbey. So what if he said “industrial tourism” would spoil our lands and values. Abbey was nothing more than a '60s tree-hugger who put too much emphasis on natural beauty and environmental well-being. These days, we know better.
Well, that's it for another strategic week here at Smart Bomb, where Wilson and the band are refusing to honor any and all subpoenas. No, they don't fear being held in contempt on account of people have been contemptuous of them for years. And unlike the political analysts here at Smart Bomb, the band actively ignores everything on cable news. Their new remedy to keeping their cool during our national nightmare: the gummies they score in Grand Junction. Cinnamon seems to be their favorite. Alright then, Wilson, why don't you and your mellow crew close us out with something light and breezy we can hum on our gummy-bear run to Colorado:
Cloudy / My thoughts are scattered and they're cloudy / They have no borders, no boundaries / They echo and they swell / From Tolstoy to Tinker Bell / Down from Berkeley to Carmel / Got some pictures in my pocket and a lot of time to kill...

Appear no even more compared to Wolfenstein 3D if you just recently played the brand-new Doom video game and also are actually asking yourself where designer id Software got its beginning. Though it wasn't the initial title to follow coming from computer game superstar duo John Carmack as well as John Romero, Wolfenstein 3D participated in a crucial job in heavily impressive a whole entire category from video games: such as the obscenely well-known first-person shooter (FPS).

A beauty of an opening Weekend
How does Disney love the box workplace? Permit me to depend on the ways. The Burbank studio’s stay-movement retelling of Beauty and the Beast opened at $170 million domestically and $350 million globally, breaking more than one statistics. As VF.Com’s Joanna Robinson e-mails:
                                     Opening Weekend
Makeup Amazon
Disney can give greater way to shiny younger ladies for a huge haul; seventy-two percentage of the outlet-day audience turned into a female and forty-five percent became beneath the age of 25. So don’t count on Disney’s urge for food for live-movement reboots in their hit princes’ narrative to slow down anytime quickly. And in a generation in which superhero movies—like Logan and Deadpool—have been scoring large by way of going for a darker R-rated vibe, Beauty and the Beast just broke a report for keeping things easy. It squeaked beyond Batman v Superman’s $166 million to land the largest March and bested Finding Dory’s $one hundred thirty-five million to become the most worthwhile establishing for a PG-rated movie.
Watson’s paycheck is tied to the box workplace performance of the film, in line with The Hollywood Reporter’s Tatiana Siegel, and the 26-yr-old British actress stands to make as much as $15 million if Beauty and the Beast fits Maleficent’s final global tally of $759 million, which seems likely to appear in document time as colleges head into spring run in coming weeks.
Solely Homosexual Bucks
Disney’s big weekend follows the dustup over Splendor and the Beast’s “Completely Homosexual second,” a quick scene of guys dancing that stimulated Malaysian censors to try and reduce the movie, Russian cultural authorities to slap a 16+ score on it, and an Alabama force-in proprietor to pull Beast from the timetable. As CNN’s Brian Lowry tweeted of the file breaking container office, “Well, that homophobic theater owner in Alabama sure showed them.”
The censorship story continues to be unfolding: Disney has declined to release the film with Malaysia’s proposed cuts, and on Tuesday, an appeals committee inside the Southeast Asian u. S . A . will meet to recall whether or not to allow audiences there to see the full version. Some Malaysians are getting their LeFou repair besides—journalist Umapagan Ampikaipakan and his pals took an avenue experience to neighboring Singapore to see the film. In a Fb stay video they shot out of doors the theater and hashtagged #CanonBelleRun, Ampikaipakan stated he observed the subtext pretty diffused, and the movie “no more Homosexual or less Homosexual” than cross-dressing scenes in Malay dramas he saw growing up.
THE Electricity Behind THE Power RANGERS
Meanwhile, some other film is breaking barriers—Lionsgate’s new Electricity Rangers film can be the primary big price range superhero movie to function an L.G.B.T. Protagonist, reports T.H.R.’s Aaron Couch.
The L.A. Times’s Meg James has a colorful profile of Haim Saban, the Egyptian billionaire In the back of the franchise that has yielded 831 television episodes, billions of greenbacks in toys and merch, and the $100 million reboot arriving in film theaters this week. Saban, considered one of Hollywood’s largest Democratic contributors, will receive a celeb on the Hollywood Stroll of Repute this week. “Before everything I idea, perhaps it becomes a mistake, a form of Oscar-snafu in which they deliver the prize to the wrong individual,” Saban informed James. “I recollect myself a caricature schlepper, and for a cool animated film, they gave me a star. I’m humbled and grateful.”
VF.Com’s Yohana Desta e-mails:
Costco Job Openings
The Sundance Kid has something to say. On Sunday, Robert Redford penned an open letter about the significance of the Countrywide Endowment for the arts, which “performed a fundamental function” in supporting him create the Sundance Institute. Donald Trump currently proposed to dispose of investment for the N.E.A., a choice that has acquired backlash from the inventive network and beyond. “The proposed defunding of the N.E.A.’s budget could gut our country’s long records of help for artists and art applications and it might deprive all our residents of the culture and diversity the arts brings to our use,” Redford writes. “This is totally the incorrect approach at completely the incorrect time.” He then calls on supporters to get in contact with their neighborhood congressmen and upload their voices to the “refrain of involved residents”—which incorporates one Julie Andrews. You may examine the rest of Redford’s impassioned letter here, on the Sundance Institute’s website.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: STACEY SNIDER
20th Century Fox film boss Stacey Snider spoke at U.C.L.A. Law College’s 41st annual Enjoyment Symposium over the weekend. In a Q&A with L.A. movie czar Ken Ziffren, Snider copped to the demanding situations of strolling a studio in a technology of rapid technological exchange, but stated, “We like our devices, however, none of my devices are any good to me if I didn’t have precise shit to look at.” Closing date’s Dominic Patten has the spotlight reel.
The Pursuit of Splendor
At some stage in my trip to Long island at the Express Bus one morning, I had the corporation and delight of studying the March issue of Attraction mag. I started out by using analyzing the Letter from the Editor Linda Wells and stumped upon this striking seize word, the “pursuit of Beauty”. Linda explains this phenomenon to be just like the pursuit of the American Dream. It is “a right to decide and enhance our important selves, psychologically and physically…That transcends gender, magnificence, race, age and sexual orientation.” I thought to myself, “This is so real!” What man or woman nowadays does not want to be and sense lovely? There’s absolute confidence, that we as humans are acutely touchy to our physical appearances and could do anything to benefit or to hold our personal Splendor. Our insatiable need for all things “Beauty” proves that we are all in full pursuit and unapologetically so.
in line with dictionary.Com Splendor is “the great found in a component or individual that offers intense pleasure or gives deep satisfaction to the thoughts.” This emotional bond to satisfaction explains why Beauty performs this kind of giant element in our lives.

The reality is, however, our pursuit of Splendor isn’t always pretty much exploiting our “sexual capital”. It’s no longer simply the bodily factor of Beauty that enamors us. we’re looking for an aggregate among the visible and the unseen – The bodily (outer) and the mental (inner) due to the fact they both thrive off each other. I really like many, accept as true with that true Beauty comes from inside. internal Splendor in my definition is that plain, profound light that shines from you and onto the world. It’s far your air of mystery, your spirit, the stamp you go away Behind after A person meets you for the primary time. My father likes to refer to this intangible, religious side of our human nature as the “internal guy” or “woman”. even though this “internal Beauty” may come less difficult to A few than others, It’s far the start ranges to fulfilling this intrinsic preference for bodily pride or happiness.
