When it comes to sexual harassment in the workplace, Jennifer Aniston said she has been treated worse by women than men in Hollywood. Aniston was asked about the #MeToo movement and more in a new wide-ranging interview for the September issue of InStyle. "I’ve definitely had some sloppy moves made on me by other actors, and I handled it by walking away," she told interviewer Molly McNearney, who is married to Jimmy Kimmel and has known Aniston for half a dozen years.

Great interview.

Saying it how it is. Jimmy Kimmel invited presidential hopeful Donald Trump onto his show on Wednesday, December 16 — and gave the real-estate magnate a grilling on his controversial immigration and anti-Muslim views. The television appearance, which was rescheduled after Trump pulled out of a prior scheduled appearance, gave the GOP candidate a chance to explain some of his more outrageous policies.

In President Me, Adam Carolla takes the pulse of the social contract, a pulse that is slackening. Narcissism is the sapping beast. Carolla sees an insidious minority that has turned out to be “assholes.” Predictably, the trait has infiltrated what is now known anachronistically as “the fabric of society.” The death of God, absent fathers, subversive pop culture, unassimilated immigration, and infantilizing, cradle/grave government all factor as threats to destroy from within America’s exceptionalist sovereignty. Carolla’s admonition is about a stratum of quasi-pathological narcissism breeding within our culture.

On his Wednesday podcast, comedian Adam Carolla dissected the reactions to last Saturday’s “not guilty” verdict in the George Zimmerman trial. Some of the media reaction that followed suggested the justice system had failed Trayvon Martin, the black 19-year-old shot by Zimmerman in February 2012. Carolla, author of “Not Taco Bell Material,” reacted to those remarks, saying that in some ways skin color and other physical attributes are something that will have to be overcome. “I’m willing to admit there’s a certain amount of racism,” Carolla said. “It’s not nearly — it’s not nearly what the news builds it up...

The only surprise in the left's new attack on podcast king Adam Carolla is why it took so long to happen. Carolla took on Calif. Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom during a recent podcast, challenging the liberal politician on his assertion that check cashing stores directly harm Blacks and Latinos. Carolla jumped in, asking Newsom why those two groups in particular lacked access to ATMs and checking accounts. The podcaster aggressively questioned Newsom, saying those groups suffer disproportionately from broken families, a condition that leaves them vulnerable to the kind of predatory practices employed by check-cashing outlets. Newsom wouldn't engage in...

After a fourth accuser stepped forward Monday with allegations of sexual harassment against embattled Republican presidential frontrunner Herman Cain, the former Godfather’s Pizza CEO went to the former co-host of “The Man Show” to issue his denials. On the Monday broadcast of ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Cain admitted it was a rough day and that the new allegations from Sharon Bialek caught him off guard. “Well, all things considered, I’m still alive. It got off to somewhat of a rough start. We were a little surprised to show up on TV … At least it wasn’t one of the many...

What police thought to be a prank call turned out to be a woman trying to purchase drugs, reported NewsChannel5's Jonathan Costen. According to Ontario police, 27-year-old Amy Logue, of Ashland, was arrested after calling police several times looking for crack cocaine. Logue called the police station three times trying to arrange the drug deal. "It's the worst case of a misdialed phone number I've ever seen," said Rob Griefenstine, of the Ontario police. Initially, the drug buy was supposed to take place at a vacant gas station, but she called the police and asked them to meet her at...
