Shiny Happy People: A Teenage Holy War is a three-part documentary that makes us privy to a movement that spread like wildfire in the entire United States of America. A Christian ministry named Teen Mania targeted the young minds of the nation and tried to brainwash them in the worst possible manner. A man named Ron Luce was at the helm of affairs and, with time, acquired the status of a legendary personality. He had the capability to move the masses, and he used it to push his own agendas and completely change the perception of the youth of the nation and transform them into fanatics.

What was Teen Mania?

Teen Mania was considered to be the biggest Christian youth organization ever to have existed in the United States of America, but after watching the Prime Video documentary, I can safely conclude that it was just an attempt to mobilize troops,...

How’s this for a news break?

Disney’s ad-sales team has offered potential sponsors of “What You Need to Know,” a new ABC News streaming news program made for Disney+, the chance to embed their logos between headlines that would scroll at the bottom of the screen. The idea is just one that Disney has discussed with media buyers and advertisers, according to a person familiar with the matter, part of a bid to highlight new concepts and innovations it’s willing to embrace in streaming venues.

Disney declined to make executives available for comment. But the person with knowledge of the ad outreach says the idea would allow for a sponsor’s logo to show up in a bottom-of-the-screen scroll, potentially after every three or four headlines.

“What You Need to Know” isn’t the typical TV-news program. It’s aimed at streaming audiences, and is anchored by James Longman and Rachel Scott.

When Disney+ launched in 2019, the streaming service featured segments from existing ABC News programming like “Good Morning America” and “Nightline.”

As consumers increasingly cut the cord from linear TV, the 24/7 streaming channel ABC News Live was integrated into Disney+ in September as part of its “Streams” offering. Now, Disney+ is doubling down on its ABC News streaming bet with “What You Need to Know,” a short-form, daily news show exclusively made for the service.

Hosted by Rachel Scott and James Longman from New York, London, Washington D.C. and beyond, the program will cover everything from breaking news to entertainment buzz and viral videos. Episodes will range from six to 10 minutes long and will be available on-demand for 24 hours before refreshing with the next day’s news and headlines, with plans to reduce the time between refreshes over time.

Following today’s announcement that Eva Pilgrim would be exiting as co-anchor of “GMA3” to join the CBS Media Ventures distributed “Inside Edition” as the newsmagazine’s new anchor in the fall, ABC News president Almin Karamehmedovic announced in an internal memo that co-anchor DeMarco Morgan would also be departing the news program and the network altogether.

“He has decided to begin a new journey and will be departing ABC News,” said Karamehmedovic in a memo to staffers.

The departure of Morgan and Pilgrim confirms earlier reports that the network was seeking a change in front of the camera for the struggling third hour of “Good Morning America,” with sources telling the New York Post, “‘GMA3’ won’t be there at the end of the summer,” though it’s likely they meant the anchors of the program rather than the program itself.

Another Good Morning America anchor has left the show!

GMA3 co-host DeMarco Morgan joins Eva Pilgrim in leaving the afternoon broadcast, and he’s also leaving ABC News altogether, Variety reports.

The news of DeMarco‘s exit comes at the same time as his co-host leaving for another show, and was revealed in a memo to staffers.

“He has decided to begin a new journey and will be departing ABC News,” ABC News President Almin Karamehmedovic shared with staffers, via Variety.

DeMarco and Eva took over GMA3 in 2023 after Amy Robach and Tj Holmes departed amid allegations of their time at the network.

With DeMarco and Eva‘s exits, another overhaul is coming to GMA3.

Variety reports that various Good Morning America anchors and correspondents will be getting more air time in the afternoon broadcast, including Gio Benitez and Ginger Zee.

ABC News is gearing up to reboot its Good Morning America offshoot GMA3 once again.

ABC News president Almin Karamehmedovic told staff Monday that DeMarco Morgan, the co-host of the show, “has decided to begin a new journey and will be departing ABC News,” according to a memo obtained by The Hollywood Reporter.

“His devotion to journalism and sharing with others is evident in everything he touches,” Karamehmedovic added. “We thank him for his kindness and many contributions, wish him well, and look forward to celebrating his next chapter soon.”

Morgan had been the co-host of GMA3 alongside Eva Pilgrim.

Earlier on Monday, Pilgrim was announced as the new anchor of Inside Edition, the syndicated CBS newsmagazine. And last year Dr. Jen Ashton, who had been a co-host of the show since 2020, exited ABC to launch a health and wellness brand.

With Morgan and Pilgrim out, ABC will need to reboot the program once more,...

It’s time for a fourth grouping of anchors at ABC News’ “GMA3.”

The Disney-backed news outlet is overhauling — yet again — the anchor lineup for the afternoon hour, this time likely giving more air time to various anchors and correspondents from “Good Morning America,” including weekend hosts such as Gio Benitez orthe weekday broadcast’s Ginger Zee. On Monday, current co-anchor Eva Pilgrim announced a move to CBS’ “Inside Edition,” while ABC News President Almin Karamehmedovic told staffers in a memo that her on-screen colleague, DeMarco Morgan, was leaving the show and the company.

“He has decided to begin a new journey and will be departing ABC News,” the executive said in his memo. The exits of Morgan and Pilgrim were previously reported by the media newsletter Status.

“GMA3” was in recent months placed under the aegis of “Good Morning America” senior executive producer Simone Swink, and its production staff was trimmed.

War can seem like an overwhelming topic. The victors rewrite conflicts, human lives are reduced to statistics, and conclusions are taken at face value.

So what happens when we zoom in? We start to see the inner workings of the military, a system comprising a group of individual humans doing their best to work as a unified front. We start to understand the way a soldier thinks. We start to understand why a nation's government might want to battle another nation's government. And we start to reckon with the moral grays of war, the blurring of boundaries leading to the blurring of ethics in ways both micro and macro, especially in our post-9/11 conflicts.

On television, these ideas have become prevalent in the 21st century through different sub-genres, attitudes, and levels of self-reflection. If all of this interests you as a viewer, then look no further as we discover the...

While accepting a Gracie award for her work on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” Molly McNearney took the opportunity to directly address the pressure women often face to look perfect.

“I’m not saying this for sympathy. Jesus, do not give me sympathy,” McNearney said Tuesday night at the 50th annual Gracie Awards held at The Four Seasons Beverly Wilshire Hotel. “You might be feeling the same [insecurity] right now, and I need us to realize together — close your ears — it doesn’t fucking matter! It doesn’t matter. We’re all too hard on ourselves. We’re gonna take all this off in a couple hours, unless you’re married to Jimmy Kimmel.”

A chorus line of past presidents from past years showed up via old video to give an edited mash-up speech, but there was no current Potus, no VP, no roast by a comedian and few Hollywood power players at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner tonight in Washington DC.

Yet, with Donald Trump still yet to make his Whcd debut as president, White House Correspondents’ Association president Eugene Daniels had no intention of burying the lede Saturday of the barricades up between the current White House and institutional media in America. “We journalists are a lot of things,“ Daniels exclaimed to a standing ovation in his First Amendment celebrating closing remarks on this 96th day of Trump 2.0. “What we are not is the opposition. What we are not is the enemy of the people, and what we are not is the enemy of the state.”

Cristin Milioti, Megan Thee Stallion and Kathy Bates are among the recipients of this year’s Gracie Awards by the Alliance for Women in Media Foundation.

This year’s celebration marks the 50th anniversary of the awards and will highlight the impact of women’s voices across television, audio, streaming, and digital platforms. Previous honorees of the Gracies have include Ava DuVernay, Carol Burnett, Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, Marlo Thomas, Michelle Obama, Nicole Kidman, Oprah Winfrey, and Sandra Oh.

“For 50 years, the Gracie Awards have honored the storytellers who push boundaries and redefine what’s possible,” said Becky Brooks, President of Awmf, in a statement. “This is more than an awards show—it is a movement that has championed inclusion, representation, and truth in the media. The women we celebrate today are shaping the next 50 years, ensuring that our narratives are not just seen or heard, but felt and remembered.

There’s only one Tree Hill, but luckily for fans, Sophia Bush and pals are giving the show a second life.

The Drama Queens podcast co-host told Deadline she’s “pumped” about the upcoming revival of her WB/CW drama One Tree Hill, which originally ran for nine seasons from 2003 to 2012, after we reported in August that a sequel series was in the works at Netflix with Bush and Hilarie Burton-Morgan attached to reprise their roles.

“We’ve been asked about bringing the show back for so long, and I think for so many years, all of us said that would be a hard no,” she said at the iHeartPodcasts Awards during SXSW at Acl Live on Monday. “And really, the podcast has given all of us this sort of opportunity to have a homecoming. And to get to analyze what was so special about it in the first place...

60 Minutes correspondent Lesley Stahl, among those accepting press freedom awards from the Radio Television Digital News Association tonight, told attendees that it was especially significant “because it comes now, when our precious First Amendment feels vulnerable and when my precious 60 Minutes is fighting, quite frankly, for our life.”

“I am so proud at 60 Minutes that we are standing and fighting for what is right,” Stahl said.

Either directly or indirectly, Stahl and a number of the honorees at the D.C. event talked of the Trump administration’s attacks on the news media, including efforts to dictate who is a member of the White House press pool and by the president’s references to the press as the “enemy of the people.”

Stahl did not get into the details of what is happening at 60 Minutes: Trump sued the network for $20 billion, claiming that they deceptively edited an...

Exclusive: Rhona Mitra has landed the female lead opposite Joel Kinnaman in Debriefing the President (wt), the four-hour miniseries recently greenlighted at TNT, which comes as part of the network’s renewed focus on premium event programming.

Mitra plays Polly Stevens, a colleague of Kinnaman’s real-life CIA analyst John Nixon (Kinnaman), whose book of the same name inspired the series. The show marks a return to TNT for the actress following two seasons as Dr. Rachel Scott in its action drama The Last Ship.

Delving into the 2003 interrogation of deposed Iraqi president Saddam Hussein, Debriefing the President explores a CIA analyst’s relentless search for truth, the complexities of justice on the global stage, and the deeply personal father-son connections woven into a turbulent period of history. Kinnaman’s Nixon is the first American official to positively identify and interrogate Saddam Hussein following his capture. The miniseries follows his...

ABC News is the latest network to announce its lineup of correspondents who will cover the White House during the next Trump administration.

Mary Bruce will remain chief White House correspondent, marking the fifth presidential administration she will cover for the network. She was named chief White House correspondent in 2023, succeeding Cecilia Vega after she departed for CBS News and 60 Minutes.

Rachel Scott, Mary Bruce and Selina Wang

Rachel Scott will join the team in a new role as senior political correspondent, covering the administration and continuing to lead reporting from Capitol Hill.

Bruce and Scott will work with senior White House correspondent Selina Wang, White House correspondent Karen Travers and White House correspondent MaryAlice Parks. Elizabeth Schulze will continue as correspondent covering the intersection of business, economics and politics. Also on the team are Steven Portnoy, ABC News Radio national correspondent, and correspondent Alex Presha.

The White House...

In a big promotion for one of its rising stars, ABC News has named Rachel Scott senior political correspondent, covering both President Trump’s White House and Congress.

The promotion for Scott comes as ABC News sets its D.C. coverage, joining other networks in shifting some on-air talent around in connection with the new administration.

Scott previously served as ABC’s senior congressional correspondent (she was on Capitol Hill on Jan. 6, 2021), and was ABC’s lead correspondent covering the Trump campaign over the past year. She led coverage of the assassination attempt on Trump’s life in Pennsylvania, and also had the newsmaking interview with Trump at last year’s National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago.

“ABC News’ Washington D.C. team is the best in the industry, reporting on the issues which have real impact on our audience,” said ABC News President Almin Karamehmedovic. “Rachel Scott...

On Monday, January 20, ABC News will air special coverage of the second inauguration of President-elect Donald J. Trump, led by “World News Tonight” anchor and managing editor David Muir from Washington, D.C. As a result, the alphabet network will be preempting its daytime lineup consisting of “The View,” “GMA3: What You Need to Know” and “General Hospital,” an ABC News representative confirmed to Soap Opera Network.

On Wednesday, ABC News announced it will feature comprehensive coverage of Inauguration Day (January 20), starting with a special edition of “Good Morning America” at 7:00 a.m. Et, followed by a day-long special report beginning at 9:00 a.m. Et. Coverage will also be available via ABC News Live, the network’s 24/7 streaming news channel.

The network notes its coverage will include reporting on Trump’s visit to Capitol Hill, the swearing-in ceremony and inaugural address, the signing ceremony in the Oval Office,...

With a new showrunner at the helm, Hilarie Burton-Morgan is looking forward to a potential return to One Tree Hill.

After she and Sophia Bush confirmed they’re working on a reboot of their hit WB/CW teen soap, the actress praised their writer and executive producer Becky Hartman Edwards as they develop the followup together.

“Our showrunner, Becky Hartman Edwards, is so good at female friendships and multi-generational shows, and that’s why we were so excited to team up with her,” Burton-Morgan told People. “So I feel very confident in what’s being presented.”

One Tree Hill creator Mark Schwahn, who served as executive producer and showrunner on the original series, has no involvement in the sequel. In 2017, a number of Oth female cast and crew members, including Bush and Burton, spoke out, accusing him of sexual harassment. The new series...

With One Tree Hill making its long-awaited return, Sophia Bush is in the process of reconnecting with Brooke Davis.

After Deadline reported in August that a sequel to the WB/CW series is in the works at Netflix, led by Bush and co-star Hilarie Burton Morgan, the actress explained that they’re still in the process of redeveloping their characters after the 2012 series finale.

“It’s unfortunate when development news leaks early. That was a bit of a bummer for us, because we wanted to get it across the finish line and then have a party,” Bush told Access.

Returning as an executive producer with Burton Morgan, Bush raved that the process of developing the series has been “really incredible.”

“The fans have kept that show alive, and they’ve asked for it for so long, and the studio came to us about,” she continued. “I think 10 years ago, I...

Chad Michael Murray fully supports a One Tree Hill sequel series. The actor, who starred on the popular CW series until its sixth season, recently shared that he hopes a follow-up series transpires for the sake of the show's dedicated fans. Plans for a One Tree Hill continuation were announced in August, with Hilarie Burton and Sophia Bush confirmed to return.

But during a conversation with Deadline, Murray shared how happy he is about the series in whatever form and combination of characters old and new comes to be:

"I really want some iteration of this show to come back for the fans. I'll tell you, whatever iteration of the show comes forward, I want that for the fans. There's such a brotherhood and a bond between so many people all around the world with us. I'm grateful for that."

In August, Bush and Burton discussed their participation in the reboot,...

Rhona Mitra was the star of TNT action drama The Last Ship from 2014-2015 before dropping out of the spotlight for several years, but now the British actress is poised to make a comeback with four upcoming movies. In the early and mid-'00s, Mitra bounced between television and film, appearing opposite Kevin Bacon in Hollow Man before joining the ensemble cast led by James Spader and William Shatner in the early seasons of Boston Legal, and playing the ancestor of Selene in the Underworld franchise.

She starred in the action-heavy sci-fi thriller Doomsday, about zombie hordes taking over the Earth, and joined Mark Wahlberg for The Shooter. Known for her commanding screen presence, in the post-apocalyptic series The Last Ship, Mitra played Dr. Rachel Scott, a beloved character who abruptly left the series after being formative in trying to find a cure for the mainland virus in its first two seasons.

CNN, ABC and National Geographic are among the top winners at night one of the 2024 News & Documentary Emmy Awards on Wednesday.

CNN also scored 10 additional wins, while ABC collected four additional wins (ABC News had eight total wins, including three credited to Hulu) and National Geo landed five wins.

Aj+ Report’s It’s Bisan From Gaza and I’m Still Alive, also won outstanding hard news feature story: shortform, despite calls for the Emmy nomination to be revoked.

Streaming service Netflix is working on a new television series that serves as a sequel to the popular teen drama “One Tree Hill.” The planned show will bring back beloved characters Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer nearly two decades after the original series concluded its run in 2012.

Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton will reprise their roles as Brooke and Peyton respectively and executive produce the project. The sequel is set in the fictional town of Tree Hill, North Carolina in the present day. According to sources, it will follow Brooke and Peyton as parents and focus on the challenges faced by their teenage children as they come of age.

Danneel Ackles, who played Rachel Scott in the original series, may return and join Bush and Burton as an executive producer. She will work alongside her brother Jensen Ackles under their production company Chaos Machine. Becky Hartman Edwards, known for shows...

Cue Gavin DeGraw's "I Don't Want to Be," One Tree Hill is set to return for a sequel series. According to a report from Deadline, a follow-up to the popular original series is being developed for Netflix. One Tree Hill stars and Drama Queens podcast co-hosts Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton will star and executive produce the series. Danneel Ackles is in talks to reprise the role of Rachel Scott and will also executive produce with her brother Jensen Ackles under their Chaos Machine banner. Firefly Lane's Becky Hartman Edwards will be at the helm. As Deadline reports:

The sequel is said to take place 20 years later following best friends Brooke and Peyton who are now parents to teens and facing challenges not unfamiliar to what they tackled in the original series like love, insecurities and grief.

One Tree Hill premiered in 2003 on the CW, and later the WB network.

There’s only one Tree Hill, and it’s Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton‘s onscreen home again.

As Deadline revealed today, a One Tree Hill sequel series is in development at Netflix with Bush and Burton reprising the roles of Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer, in addition to serving as executive producers.

The pair celebrated the return to their TV roots, posting a recent cast reunion photo with Danneel Ackles and Bevin Prince.

“What if you really can go back home? If there’s an opportunity to team with brilliant creatives and build a space where all our friends can show off their talents? Own our history? Reclaim our turf? Honor our fans? Sign us up,” the pair wrote in a joint statement posted individually to their respective Instagram accounts.

“There’s only one Tree Hill, after all,” they continued. “And you — the #OTHfam — have shown us that it’s not just an idea.

Can you believe it’s been 12 years since One Tree Hill came to an end? This series had us feel all the emotions, and it’s still one that we want to rewatch.

The series itself has become clouded with darkness as secrets about the series have come out. Sophia Bush, Hilarie Burton, and Bethany Joy Lenz have all talked about some of the treatment they faced while on the series thanks to showrunner Mark Schwahn.

Admittedly, with the darker past, it made us wonder whether a One Tree Hill revival could ever happen. Well, put it in the right hands, and it can.

A sequel show to One Tree Hill is in the works at Netflix, with two original stars set to return and one actor reportedly not reprising his role. Even though a possible revival of One Tree Hill has garnered occasional headlines, it hasn't quite come to fruition until now.

Deadline reports that a revival of One Tree Hill is in development on Netflix. Original cast members Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton are set to executive produce and reprise their roles of Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer, respectively. The sequel show hails from writer and producer Becky Hartman Edwards and Warner Bros. TV.

After a brief fakeout for Independence Day last month, the ladies of “The View” are now officially on summer break. And yes, it’ll be a bit longer until you can return to the table with them again.

Friday marked the Season 27 finale, and it came with a bit of news from host Sunny Hostin. To wrap up the show, she announced that “after 10 years and 2,143 episodes, this is also the last episode we’ll do from this studio.” Indeed, when the show returns for Season 28, it’ll be at a brand new table in a brand new studio.

The episode also welcomed Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg to the show, where he picked apart Donald Trump’s racist comments about Vice President Kamala Harris.

Former President Donald Trump said he would no longer take part in a planned debate between presidential candidates that had been slated for Sept. 10 on ABC, and instead pitched the concept of a new stand-off hosted by Fox News Channel on Sept. 4.

The ABC debate had been agreed to by both the Trump campaign and the campaign for President Joe Biden. Biden exited the 2024 presidential race in July, and Vice President Kamala Harris is now the Democratic nominee. She had committed to keep the ABC debate in place. The event was to have been moderated by David Muir and Linsey Davis.

In comments posted to Truth Social late Friday, Trump said the September 10 debate had been “terminated,” noting it had been agreed to when Biden was still the nominee. He also raised the issues of legal conflicts he had with ABC; Trump has filed a defamation suit against the network...

Former Ohio University journalism professor Justice B. Hill has proudly been a card-carrying member of the National Association of Black Journalists (Nabj) for nearly five decades. But this week, Hill echoed similar thoughts of many journalists who converged on the first day of the 2024 Nabj Convention and Career Fair in Chicago. As they heard the organization would be interviewing former President Donald Trump, Hill felt a sense of bewilderment and betrayal by his organization.

“It’s a mess,” Hill told The Hollywood Reporter. “The whole thing came together in the past couple of days. And I hate things being not transparent. There’s controversy among members — one of the co-chairs of the Chicago convention [Karen Attiah, a columnist for The Washington Post] resigned. You don’t surprise members this way. He has never spoken at our convention before. He was invited in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, and he refused to come. So, why is he coming now?...

Omarosa has blasted former president Donald Trump for comments he made about Vice President Kamala Harris at the National Association of Black Journalists conference on Wednesday (July 31). During a tense question-and-answer session with the moderator, ABC News correspondent Rachel Scott, Trump suggested that Harris, who has Indian and Jamaican-born parents, only decided to “turn Black” in recent years for political gain. “I’ve known her a long time, indirectly. And she was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” Trump said. “I did not know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black.” He continued, “I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she became Black. Somebody should look into that,...

Houston — Addressing a cavernous auditorium filled with thousands of Black women decked out in royal blue and gold — the colors of Sigma Gamma Rho, a historically Black sorority holding its biennial celebration in Houston on Wednesday — Vice President Kamala Harris acknowledged the ugly, unhinged rant that former President Donald Trump delivered hours earlier at the National Association of Black Journalists’ convention in Chicago.

During a panel discussion moderated by a trio of female reporters, Trump had questioned Harris’ race, suggesting she “turned” Black as a matter of political convenience.

Kamala Harris said that Donald Trump’s remarks before the National Association of Black Journalists on Wednesday were the “same old show,” calling him out for being divisive and disrespectful as he answered questions from three moderators.

But Harris, in remarks to an international gathering of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority in Houston, did not specifically call out Trump’s questioning of her racial identity, as he falsely claimed that only recently did she become “a Black person.”

“It was the same old show, the divisiveness and the disrespect,” Harris said of Trump’s appearance at the Nabj convention. “And let me just say: The American people deserve better…The American people deserve a leader who tells the truth, a leader who does not respond with hostility and anger when confronted with the facts. We deserve a leader who understands that our differences do not divide us. They are an essential source of our strength.

Updated: Donald Trump lit a firestorm from comments he made at a combative appearance before the National Association of Black Journalists, as he questioned whether his Democratic rival Kamala Harris was really Black.

“I’ve known her for a long time indirectly, directly, very much,” Trump said. “And she was always of Indian heritage and she was promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian, or is she Black?”

His comments quickly drew condemnation, including from White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who called them “repulsive.” But he doubled down on them in a later posting on Truth Social, writing that “Crazy Kamala is saying she’s Indian, not Black. This is a big deal. Stone cold phony. She uses everybody,...

President Donald Trump went on the attack while appearing onstage at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago in a contentious appearance that quickly went off the rails and saw the candidate repeating lies about his past policy toward Black communities and questioning Vice President Kamala Harris’ identity as a Black woman.

“She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” Trump said from the stage at the Chicago Hilton. “I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?

“I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she went — she became a Black person,...

Former President Donald Trump’s appearance before the National Association of Black Journalists generated controversy as soon as it was announced — and went off the rails just as quickly once it started.

Trump was more than an hour late to the Q&a alongside ABC News congressional correspondent Rachel Scott, Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner, and Semafor political reporter Kadia Goba. According to HuffPost, the delay was caused — at least in part — by a backstage “standoff” between Trump and Nabj organizers over the use of live fact-checking during the panel.
