    There`s a huge difference between hiring someone who offers an alternate point of view, and someone who believes in conspiracy theories, Michael Steel once had the same job as she did, and no one is calling for him to be fired, and does anyone think that Fox would hire Rachael Maddow, or Lawerence O`Donnell??

    3:10 She attempted to strike a balance, acknowledging valid concerns while cautiously navigating the conversation. Understood! But then... you see the realization that she, too, might face backlash if she does not return to more familiar rhetoric in reassuring the choir of her faithfulness with saying: drawing the line in "upholding our democracy." Fascinating to muse on the subtle adjustment woven into her remark--wouldn't you say? Is there a whisper of more significant issues in need of our attention? Just maybe? Are you starting to see the cracks? Aren't you even a bit intrigued about where she really wanted to take that statement before the sudden reversal?

    The stars and planets aligned when Angelina Jordan was born.
    The journey of an artist can indeed be profoundly affected by their socioeconomic background. Angelina Jordan's financial stability has arguably given her the freedom to explore and express her creativity without the immediate pressure of financial survival. The most profound individual in AJ’s life, according to her, is her grandmother, Mery Zamani, artist/poet extraordinaire who’s knowledge, wealth and genius have tutored AJ, and cultivated her unbelievable talent. This is a luxury not afforded to all artists, and the music industry is replete with stories of immensely talented individuals who have faced immense pressure to succeed financially. This pressure can sometimes lead to a tragic struggle with substance abuse, as seen in the cases of Whitney Houston and Amy Winehouse. Their legacies serve as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of the immense pressures of fame and success in the music industry. It's a complex tapestry where talent, personal circumstances, and external pressures interweave to shape an artist's career and personal life. ©
