#abc's alaska daily

[katurdayss]

Hi friends, if you're looking for a TV show to watch Alaska Daily is on Hulu and a really great show about journalism/ local newsrooms. It's not Shadow & Bone or Euphoria or a Star Wars spin off or a LOTR spin off but don't let that fool you.

This show is a great show where a romantic relationship is the tertiary story line instead of some stupid love triangle. It's main story line is about the violence against indigenous women, which is barely talked about in main stream circles.

Think if Shemar Moore's S.W.A.T and the movie Boston Strangler with Kiera Knightly had a baby in Alaska. Now add in Hilary Swank.

Please go watch this show so we can get a second season! I promise it's worth it!

Alaska Daily (2022- 2023)

🎬Recently disgraced reporter Eileen Fitzgerald leaves her high-profile New York life behind to join a daily metro newspaper in Anchorage, Alaska, on a journey to find both personal and professional redemption.

📝An intelligent, well written and thought provoking show. It will make you appreciate the important, tough and hard work journalists do. The whole cast is amazing and the main plotline is extremely important. I was sad to learn that ABC network has cancelled this (I suppose we can't have intelligent shows, when you can make mass produced rubbish). It is still worth watching because the story concludes at the end of the season, so you will not be wasting your time.

I hope they will shop it to another network. It's a brilliant show and worth watching. Episode 1 is a little slow, but stick with it, it's a very good series.

Another group of shows cancelled. I stopped watching Big Sky around season 1. I didn’t like being duped.

And for some reason I kept forgetting to keep up with The Company You Keep. I think I only watched 3 episodes. 😬 sorry Milo.

Winning a pair of Academy Awards has given Hilary Swank a certain amount of clout in Hollywood, and she made a conscious decision to channel that influence into producing. She's been a producer or executive producer on a number of her projects in the past 15 years, including her new television series, Alaska Daily. When we spoke to Swank, she explained why she's gotten so passionate about her career as a producer and how it's affected her work on the show.

Alaska Daily airs Thursdays at 10/9c on ABC, and episodes start streaming on Hulu the following day.

See…now they’re actually gonna piss me because first they didn’t properly promote this series (i know it could’ve gotten more popular since ppl have been wanting a series that focuses on the MMIW crisis and has indigenous creatives involved) and now they’re taking it off the platform after less than a year of like i’m so sick of these streaming sites and media companies like they finally hit the jackpot for a current show i actually watched outside of their animated ones and they didn’t even give it a chance omllll i’m so angry

SpaceTime -- A brief history

SpaceTime is Australia’s most popular and respected astronomy and space science news program – averaging over two million downloads every year. We’re also number five in the United States.  The show reports on the latest stories and discoveries making news in astronomy, space flight, and science.  SpaceTime features weekly interviews with leading Australian scientists about their research.  The show began life in 1995 as ‘StarStuff’ on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s (ABC) NewsRadio network.  Award winning investigative reporter Stuart Gary created the program during more than fifteen years as NewsRadio’s evening anchor and Science Editor.  Gary’s always loved science. He studied astronomy at university and was invited to undertake a PHD in astrophysics, but instead focused on his career in journalism and radio broadcasting. He worked as an announcer and music DJ in commercial radio, before becoming a journalist and eventually joining ABC News and Current Affairs. Later, Gary became part of the team that set up ABC NewsRadio and was one of its first presenters. When asked to put his science background to use, Gary developed StarStuff which he wrote, produced and hosted, consistently achieving 9 per cent of the national Australian radio audience based on the ABC’s Nielsen ratings survey figures for the five major Australian metro markets: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth.  The StarStuff podcast was published on line by ABC Science -- achieving over 1.3 million downloads annually.  However, after some 20 years, the show finally wrapped up in December 2015 following ABC funding cuts, and a redirection of available finances to increase sports and horse racing coverage.  Rather than continue with the ABC, Gary resigned so that he could keep the show going independently.  StarStuff was rebranded as “SpaceTime”, with the first episode being broadcast in February 2016.  Over the years, SpaceTime has grown, more than doubling its former ABC audience numbers and expanding to include new segments such as the Science Report -- which provides a wrap of general science news, weekly skeptical science features, special reports looking at the latest computer and technology news, and Skywatch – which provides a monthly guide to the night skies. The show is published three times weekly (every Monday, Wednesday and Friday) and available from the United States National Science Foundation on Science Zone Radio, and through both i-heart Radio and Tune-In Radio.

I’m so annoyed, Alaska Daily about Missing and Murdered indigenous women was cancelled by ABC. It was really good and they just cancelled it for no good reasons. Also all the shows that have been cancelled lately like Roswell New Mexico, Kung Fu, The Winchesters, Big Sky all get cancelled when shows that are worse or about cops or hospitals are all that are left. I’m just frustrated when good shows with people of color, women or lgbtq characters are cancelled for stupid reasons. Just so mad.

[dotthings]

ABC cancelled Alaska Daily. I'm saddened but glad it existed and I got to meet these characters and see this story and the attention was drawn to the MMIW issue and to the work local journalists do. I appreciate that ABC greenlit this. I think they didn't promote it enough, though. Who knows what makes a show catch on or not, but Alaska Daily deserved more viewership than it got.

The whole cast was a delight, and Hillary Swank and Grace Dove were both outstandingly brilliant in this.

Well-known political expert, author, journalist, and CEO David Rothkopf is blasting conservatives on the U.S. Supreme Court after their disastrous rulings last week, warning the Court is now a “threat to democracy” and suggesting some justices should be “considered” for impeachment.

Rothkopf, also a national security and foreign policy commentator, is a columnist for The Daily Beast and the author at least seven books, including American Resistance.

“Watching debates about Supreme Court here and elsewhere is the latest study in GOP efforts to normalize the unconscionable, the corrupt, and the contra-constitutional. This is a court in which a majority of those on the right took their seats under questionable circumstances,” Rothkopf said at the start of a lengthy thread on Twitter.

“Of them, a cloud of corruption hangs over Thomas & Alito. Kavanaugh took [his] seat despite allegations against him that were not properly investigated. Questions surround his payoff of personal debts. Gorsuch’s ascension is also clouded by questions surrounding Kennedy’s departure,” he says.

Justice Clarence Thomas has been under fire for months over his relationship with billionaire GOP donor and businessman Harlan Crow, who reportedly has had business before the high court. The far-right wing justice and his wife, Ginni Thomas, (who has been accused of working to undermine the 2020 presidential election results,) may have received gifts totaling over $1 million in luxury vacations, travel, food, lodging, and clothing. Experts say Thomas was required to disclose portions of those gifts and that he did not.

Justice Samuel Alito is also the beneficiary of luxury travel, including a fishing trip to Alaska courtesy of another billionaire, and a trip to Rome during which he delivered a highly-criticized speech just days after delivering his opinion striking down Roe v. Wade. That trip was reportedly paid for by a religious liberty organization whose leader reportedly bought Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s Indiana home.

Indeed, Rothkopf also skewers Justice Barrett, or at least her confirmation.

“Barrett received her seat in a rush to judgment that was unlike any we have ever seen and completely contrary to the way the GOP Senate treated prior Dem nominees (Garland). In the time since the majority took over, they have cast aside one core principle after another,” he observes.

“Stare decisis went out the window. (Precedents were ignored without any sound justification.) Promises to honor past decisions as established law (like Roe) proved worthless. Past claims that the right valued originalism and condemned judicial activism were wholly ignored,” Rothkopf charges.

“When precedent went against them, absurd arguments drawing on ancient and irrelevant legal decisions were used to supersede the clear intent of the framers and decades, sometimes centuries of legal precedent.”

Last week, he says, we saw “a decision on affirmative action that ignored precedent, reality, and justice and contained, in its carve-out for military academies, a sub-decision that refuted the logic of the main opinion. In the case of reversing the Biden student loan decision,” Rothkopf writes, “a brand new doctrine was presented out of whole cloth. The decision regarding the ‘right’ of a website designer to refuse to do work for a ‘gay’ couple was based on both a lie and a hypothetical, should never have been taken on as a case and was grossly wrong on the law,” he adds.

Rothkopf appears to believe the conservative justices will not stop.

“These judges are acting with impunity because they believe a GOP controlled Senate will never challenge them and that a fundamental flaw in the way the Constitution grants power to underpopulated states assures that the document that was created to evolve never will,” he writes.

And he suggests some of the Supreme Court’s justices might need to be impeached.

“They also know that Senate rules essentially mean they can act with impunity despite their wholesale corruption and the fact that several of them should, in all likelihood, be seriously considered for impeachment.”

Pointing to Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin, he adds: “This is, as [she] has said a constitutional crisis. This is an illegitimate, rogue institution that is seeking to reverse decades of progress and impose the will of a white, wealthy, Christian, male, straight minority on the majority of Americans.”

“This is a moment that calls for action on the part of Democrats in power to use their ability to call Senate hearings and to challenge this extremist cluster of judicial terrorists wherever possible. But more than that, it demands absolutely clarity from the voting public,” he says.

Rothkopf warns conservatives in the Court are poised to do even more damage to democracy and the American people.

“Unless Democrats win the presidency, hold and increase their majority in the Senate and retake the House, this tiny band of malevolent and dangerous actors will gut many of the most important provisions of the past century and a half of American law.”

“They will destroy lives and put millions of others at risk. Next year’s election must be in part, about this threat to democracy even as it is also about the threat posed by GOP presidential candidates. Stop. Consider the consequences.”

He warns minority Americans will continue to see their civil rights “stripped” away.

“Consider the basic rights that will be stripped away from women, people of color, our LGBTQ brothers and sisters, voters, and all who believe in the ideals that have guided American leaders as we have struggled to perfect our nation,” he says. “The only people who can save us are you and your fellow voters. The only way to do so is to mobilize, be active, donate to candidates and remain committed to defending our country against the threat posed by the MAGA GOP in our legislature and our judiciary. Starting right now.”

The sad and very scary reality that Native communities face is the growing numbers of Missing Murdered Indigenous Women (#MMIW). Great to see a major broadcast network like ABC highlight this in their new show 'AlaskaDaily'. The first episode has promise for a good season.

I'm glad MMIW is the highlight of this show - a big shout out to ABC for providing resources at the end of the episode. As an Indigenous woman, when I visit cities or towns that have a high rate of MMIW, I am constantly looking over my shoulder. Imagine having to be on alert ALL the time, something simple like putting in gas in your car, you have to notify someone to let them know where you are going to ensure you are returning safely. This is a scary reality that ALL Indigenous women have to do in their everyday life especially for those living in those cities or towns.

My hope is 'Alaska Daily' will do justice to the Indigenous women who have been murdered, who are still missing and not to use them as a prop in the storytelling. Also, not to play the white savior card.

I am glad to see a diverse cast and the inclusion of Indigenous actors and writers.

gonna fight abc for cancelling big sky and alaska daily

[karihighman]

Bye bye Big Sky ☹️ thanks for a great 3 seasons! These are only some of the insane, epic moments that happened. 📸🎥🥲

Just watched Hilary Swank get interviewed on “Kelly and Ryan” and the did bring up “Cobra Kai” and she said she’d love to be on the show though so far she hasn’t heard anything from the writers/Netflix yet. That makes sense though as the show still hasn’t been formally renewed for season 6 yet and the writers already revealed that when/if that happens they can’t write and film it till next year too. That delay will actually help Hilary though as she also just announced she’s pregnant with twins!!! :D It’s her first children too and so happy for her. She’s also currently filming a TV show “Alaska Daily” for ABC too so with that and the babies coming she wouldn’t be able to film next year anyway, but I’m taking it as a likely sign she’ll show up in season 6.
