Tennis television broadcasters failed their viewers this weekend. Wrote about the stark divide between how Zverev’s story was covered this week by journalists (pretty well) and on TV broadcasts (not whatsoever). Free to read and share at Bounces: www.benrothenberg.com/p/alexander-...

For Zverev's Full Story, Read All About It

Because as the French Open broadcasts showed, the reality will not be televised.

Tough night for Carter Hart. He must have just had some lapses in judgement, just made some bad decisions. He'll grow from this and be better I'm sure.

I've been saying we need a progressive DOGE that actually focuses on making government work well rather than undermining it. But we need a better name. So how about DOPE: the Department of Public Excellence.

There is good reason to believe that the Iranian regime is unpopular. If you wanted to have a revolutionary uprising, you wouldn't start by mass murdering a bunch of schoolchildren and then carpet bombing the middle class, educated northern suburbs of Tehran (e.g., the heart of the opposition)

If she wants to be president, she would be dumb not to jump into this cycle. The 2028 election will be the best political environment you can expect in the foreseeable future and she probably will have no real competition on the left.

I need "Stats are down but he played great" to make it into the lexicon.

screenshot of a post from X by the Mirriam-Webster account. Their tweet says Words step up when numbers fail. They are retweeting a post from @david_arid that reads: There was a computer flitch at the end of tonight's Nuggets game that erased all the players' stats, which led to this fantastic screengrab from the post-game show. Then there is a blurry picture from a men's basketball game and the chyron says: Time Hardaway Jr. Stats are down but he played great."

we talk too much about the male loneliness crisis and not enough about the male suckerfication crisis maxread.substack.com/p/prediction...

One way of thinking about Twitter, especially in the Elon Musk era, is as the latest and most sophisticated version of the mailing lists that have powered the conservative movement, and the various scams and cons and schemes that constitute it, since the 1960s--in other words, as a huge and immediately accessible collection of suckers, waiting to have their avidity and paranoia exploited for cash. The predictions markets here are happy to play the same role with heavy X.com users as crypto scams and meme-stock hustlers did on the same site a few years ago, or as cash-for-gold ads did with Fox News viewers a decade before that, or as direct-mail get-rich-quick schemes did with Goldwater voters deep in prehistory.1

But the demand for dumb money created by the increasing annexation of our everyday social and cultural lives into casino-market hybrids like predictions markets (or, arguably, social media itself2) isn’t going to be satisfied solely by a pre-existing population of Birchite suckers. We talk a lot about the “male loneliness crisis” but in my estimation we don’t talk enough about the “male suckerfication crisis”: The process by which young men are continuously cultivated--by politicians, influencers, podcasters, sportscasters, and the very structure of social networks--as dupes and suckers, both for the enrichment and empowerment of Trumpist politicians and movements but also in service of the profits an ever-expanding roster of gambling and gambling-adjacent industries, among them app-enabled retail day-trading, crypto speculation, predictions markets, and of course, actual sports betting.
