Even though we live in a world where FOX "News" pretty much takes a sledgehammer to the basic foundations of news, journalism, and telling the truth, Disney CEO Bob Iger's ABC News has made the decision to suspend senior national correspondent Terry Moran over some opinions he shared on social media about Trump lackey Stephen[...]

One of the most revolutionary was ABC's My So-Called Life, a bold coming-of-age prime-time teen drama from Winnie Holzman. Unfortunately, the series only lasted 19 episodes, canceled after one season in its run from 1994-1995, but it earned a cult following, not to mention elevated its young stars Claire Danes, Wilson Cruz, A.J[...]
