Colbert Slams FBI’s Kavanaugh Investigation: ‘I’ve Had More Thorough Investigations to Find My AirPods’ (Video)
The Brett Kavanaugh news cycle is so powerful at this point that it’s even completely overshadowed a New York Times report that said Donald Trump committed massive tax fraud for years and years, so of course Stephen Colbert began “The Late Show” on Thursday with more discussion about the latest developments in the Kavanaugh situation. He started by trying to figure out whether Kavanaugh would be confirmed, and after an extended sequence of pretending to punch numbers into a calculator concluded that, of course, every single Republican will vote to confirm. And then he went in on the FBI’s less-than-a-week-long…

‘A Star Is Born’ Film Review: Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga Reinvigorate a Classic
For all the reasons that a fourth iteration of “A Star Is Born” — fifth, if you count the 1932 drama “What Price Hollywood?” whose DNA is in every “Star” — shouldn’t and wouldn’t work in 2018, it’s an extraordinary surprise that this new version packs such a wallop. This is “A Star Is Born” for people who never saw a previous version, for people who love any of the previous versions, and even for those who think the property is moth-eaten and old-fashioned. This is “A Star Is Born” that takes the characters seriously, in their passions and pathologies,…

‘Venom’ Forms Symbiotic Relationship With (Mostly) Bad Reviews: ‘Loud and Stupid’
The first reviews and reactions to Sony’s “Venom” are in, but unfortunately for fans of the symbiotic alien at the center of Sony’s “Spider-Man” sorta-spinoff, they’re mostly not great. In his review, TheWrap’s Alonso Duralde calls “Venom” “the kind of comic-book movie that people who hate comic-book movies think that all comic-book movies are like.” Variety’s Owen Gleiberman meanwhile calls it “a textbook case of a comic-book film that’s unexciting in its ho-hum competence, and even its visual-effects bravura.” And writing for The Hollywood Reporter, Todd McCarthy deems “Venom” to be “thoroughly irredeemable.” Also Read: 'Venom' Film Review: Tom Hardy Gets…

Why Group Nine’s Content Strategy Doesn’t Involve Driving Viewers Back to Its Websites
It was just nine months ago when Facebook decided to change its algorithm to favor content shared and created by friends instead of publishers. The decision led to the downfall of a handful of content creators such as Little Things, which experienced a 75% drop in its organic traffic, essentially killing profit margins and forcing it to close its doors. Since that time, content creators have been careful not to rely too heavily on social media platforms for their traffic. Many, including Refinery29 and Condé Nast, have developed apps as a means to drive consumers back into their owned and…
