Google and Youtube Speak to a Town Hall On Politics, Media and Technology
Join the Live Stream Discussion with Recode and MSNBC Google CEO Sundar Pichai and YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki speak with Recode’s Kara Swisher and MSNBC’s Ari Melber along with a town hall discussion. The conversation so far has focused on internal decision making, artificial intelligence, and the future of technology. It would be more progressive if the interviewers pushed for reform within Google and YouTube. A lot of these questions feel like they were screened. I would put far more pressure on transparency regarding their decision making process. "We actually recently committed, Google committed a billion dollar for job retraining

GRAMMYs Live Results and Winners Featuring Kraftwerk, LCD Soundsystem and Additional Acts
Kendrick Lamar, Chuck Loeb, The Defiant Ones and More Pick Up GRAMMYs The GRAMMY Awards are already announcing winners for the ceremony today. We recently did a prediction article going through the acts we find to be the best overall. Overall, I am extremely disappointed in the voting for the electronic music categories. The Best Dance Recording went to 'Tonite' by LCD Soundsystem. No offense to this group, but they haven't been relevant in a decade. In my view, this win could be tied to their connection to Colombia Records. The GRAMMYs and other major award ceremonies have limited independent artists over

Netflix and Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee Defies Political Correctness
How to Balance Entertainment and Respect Jerry Seinfeld is returning to Netflix with his latest season of Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. As we age, our verbal and psychological filter becomes less and less. We tend to lose apathy and empathy for those that have been through emotional and psychological issues. With the rise of the #MeToo movement, I find a lot of the guests highlighted in this trailer for the latest season to be distasteful. As a male that can see the pain that sexual abuse can cause, I question Seinfeld's use of guests on his show. I also
