Not all heroes wear capes: They wear fantasy bras

Share: Due to the decline in viewership and the company’s bankruptcy, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show’s budget has been sadly cut, and production has scaled down to a smaller size. These past few years, they tried to bring back a new, refreshed look to the show, but did not make the comeback they wished for. So, to save face this year, they brought back the legendary Fantasy Bra and gave the honor to the one and only Kylie Jenner. The Fantasy Bra is a bejeweled …

Katie Zacharia is proof of how vain Trump is

Share: It is completely understandable that the Trump administration did not fact-check Katie Zacharia’s resume or credentials, as they are the most incompetent administration in history. It was an embarrassing series of events for Zacharia in just the span of 5 days, but the ones who should actually feel embarrassed is the White House who let her take the job as press secretary of the United States. Trump is so vain and ignorant that he most likely didn’t care if she did well or not, …

The real fraud is in the White House, not Ilhan Omar’s house

Share: U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar is just the newest victim of President Donald Trump’s relentless attack against citizens who don’t fit his ideas of what a ‘real American’ looks like. Homeland Security raiding Omar’s home, accusing her of committing immigration fraud and threatening to deport her not only reeks of this administration’s bias against immigrants but also of the Islamophobia that has plagued this nation for far too long. It is rare to see a Muslim, much less a Muslim woman, be put into any …

Columbus Day should ‘discover’ a new name

Share: Imagine you’re at home with your family enjoying dinner. Then, all of a sudden, you look out the window and see 3 blacked-out, tinted Cadillac Escalades pull up on your lawn, and people piling out like a clown car. They break into your house, eat your dinner, then decide that your house is their house now, and you have to either leave, die, or be a slave to them. You try to call the police, local news, anyone, but they all say it’s fine …

Whose pockets are Trump’s $5,000 checks coming out of?

Share: At Donald Trump’s rally in Tennessee, he reiterated his relentless $5,000 promise to Americans. This plan, involving giving money to American adults, depends on citizens voting to keep Congress Republican in the upcoming midterm election. Besides the moral qualms this proposal provokes, questions about the process and his ability to initiate this check have risen as well. Overall, Trump’s assurances have lost all value as he explicitly ignores the American people’s wishes and continues to prioritize his own political interests with corrupt guarantees. Today, …

Editorial: PCC needs to be transparent about alleged sexual harassment

Share: As a student newsroom, we love PCC. We’re more in the know about PCC’s upcoming events, news and successes than any other student on campus. We try to keep PCC student interests in mind with every story we write, and we love hearing and experiencing everything that the campus has to offer, then telling everybody else about it. So why does hearing, “PCC is committed to providing a safe, respectful, and supportive environment for its students, faculty, staff and the broader campus community” from …

LeBron’s the latest example of athletes compromising the game

Share: LeBron James recently endorsed Polymarket, an online prediction market that focuses primarily on sports, and is now rightfully under a plethora of scrutiny for supporting such an unethical business. Prediction markets such as Polymarket and Kalshi have been on the rise in popularity and use a loophole that classifies their service as “trading,” allowing them to avoid state gambling laws, unlike typical sportsbooks. Avoiding state gambling laws provides many benefits to these prediction markets, such as lower legal and licensing expenses, broader accessibility, and …

Cornell’s student newspaper should be the standard, not the exception

Share: Everything about the Cornell gang rape story is so hideous that it becomes easy to lose faith in humanity. We have been told about seven disgusting men—Matthew Ingalls, Jonathan Newell, Winston Lee, Gillio Lopes, Diego Sarabia, Scott Norris, and Scott Kretzschmar—who are worthy of the same compassion, care, and love with which they behaved that night —in other words, none. The one bright spot, though, is that there are brave individuals throughout this case. The bravest person involved is Jane Doe, who has suffered …

Trump’s propaganda-filled White House app is fake news

Share: In the midst of President Donald Trump’s White House press ban, the president’s ego managed to reach new levels of arrogance that Americans shouldn’t be surprised he’s capable of reaching. The White House App and Trump TV have both been created to spew 24/7 news filled with all the possible propaganda filth one can imagine. These two platforms, combined with the ongoing press ban, reassure us that the current administration isn’t shying away from silencing First Amendment rights while trying to push out what …

‘What was once the peak is now just the beginning’… of massive layoffs

Share: Mergers are slaughtering all the media you have ever loved, and every movie, every show, and every franchise is lined up on the chopping block, and David Ellison is holding the axe. Since the dawn of time, humans have loved telling stories. Since the dawn of capitalism, companies have loved to make money. The relationships between storytellers and studios have always been a rocky one, a power struggle between financial funding and the freedom to tell the stories filmmakers want to share. These struggles …
