John Slattery, 63, moved to an apartment on Bank Street in the West Village after marrying the actress Talia Balsam in 1998. At the time, he had established himself as a character actor.

I can remember when I was tapped to go to 60 minutes I thought this was fantastic and I expected a lot of people would just come up and say, that's really great, I'm really happy for you, whatever the thing right is and then you realize after a while that not everybody was happy that I got this job. There were other people that wanted it. And so then you've all of a sudden made a bunch of enemies. And that's, it's just, you know, it's a snake pit.

Heimir Hallgrimsson's approach to the friendly match against North Macedonia could be indicative of his overall coaching strategy. The players seemed disinterested, reflecting a lack of engagement that is concerning for future performances.

There's a lot of hate online. There's a lot of abuse of how I look, and it's kind of past the point of - you know, everyone goes through that... but it's made me shy away.

This was a very small plot of land. He was a tenant farmer, so it wasn't his. He didn't have money, and he needed to move on because it wasn't working; probably not enough to eat, couldn't sustain. So, he left and went to America, and here I am a couple of generations later.

Dolan lamented, 'There's nothing in the studio to throw around,' before grabbing a stack of tabloid newspapers and tossing them at the camera, saying, 'It's the Boris way.'

his community-oriented multimedia brand Do Good Crew launched last month with his new podcast, The Person Who Believed In Me, which features thought-leaders reflecting on the people who took a chance on them when no one else would. And his first guest? None other than Oprah Winfrey.

There are lots of big and interesting football games on live television this weekend. We're getting to the point in the year where the good teams are starting to hit their straps, when results have consequences. Why then, do I get the feeling we'll all feel underwhelmed by Sunday night?

These days, American politics is a highly charged and dramatic landscape - and nowhere more so than in the White House press room, which can, on occasion, feel like part reality show, part bear pit. Rarely a day goes by where a press room moment doesn't go viral, for any number of reasons. And, as RTÉ's new Washington correspondent, Galwegian Jackie Fox cannot wait to immerse herself in the belly of the beast.

As part of the politics and public affairs team, he covered the assassinations of George Moscone and Harvey Milk, the kidnapping of Patty Hearst and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.

"It's so evocative. I'm surprised they got rid of it," Duffy said. "It's written by Stockton's Wing, Mike Hanrahan and the boys. I used to meet Mike in the old radio centre when he was in, doing bits of work." "And he'd always say to me, at least once a year: 'Thanks, we got the Lanzarote this year off it'. I just think it's evocative. And the programme is in a very hard time, a quarter to two. So you need something, a call to listen," he told The Pat Kenny Show on Newstalk.

"But on the other hand, he used to also say: 'If you want to be a somebody, you've got to bang, bang, bang on the drum'. Bit confusing for a young lad. "I will read, and I have been reading the texts that are coming in, and to be quite honest, I'm a bit overwhelmed. But the time has come to thank a few people."

For years, Irish radio was defined by stability. The voices were familiar, the schedules were predictable, the territory was clearly marked. But, as February 2026 gets underway, the war for Ireland's airwaves is very much on, with RTÉ and Newstalk ready to face off across the chessboard.

Bari Weiss, Tony Dokoupil, and the pieces of CBS News they speak for are somewhat obsessed with telling you that they don't expect your trust, but they intend to earn it.
