    (NewsNation) - The Department of Homeland Security is warning of rising threats in the coming months.

The agency also warned of possible attacks against the media, critical infrastructure and perceived ideological opponents. **SNIP** DHS pointed to an uptick in extremist content online as well as recent attacks...

    After Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman’s campaign tried to blame its candidate’s humiliating debate performance on a closed captioning system “filled with errors,” Nexstar Media Groups, who hosted the debate, said that was a lie.Here’s the statement from the Fetterman campaign [emphasis mine throughout]:We are thrilled with John’s performance. He did remarkably well tonight — especially when you consider that he’s still recovering from a stroke and was working off of delayed captions filled with errors. John won countless exchanges, counter-punched aggressively, and pushed back on Oz’s cruelty and attacks. Gary Weitman, Nexstar’s Chief Communications Officer, responded with this statement:Both...

    Georgia Senate hopeful Herschel Walker (R) downplayed himself ahead of his debate with Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) next month, saying “I’m not that smart” — comments that his campaign argued were sarcasm. After some haggling between the two campaigns, the candidates announced last week that Warnock and Walker would be participating in a televised debate on Oct. 14 with Savannah, Ga., Nexstar affiliate WSAV. The Hill is owned by Nexstar.

    "You’ve got this great idea to cater to the left wing market for news and you’ve conveniently never heard of FakeNewsCNN (which firing Brian ‘POE-TAE-TOE’ Stelter won’t fix if you don’t fire the rest too, Discovery) or PMSDNC (AKA MSNBC) but you just can’t figure out how to get started. Well we in the shed have your back. Well not literally as we can’t stand you, but we do have a plan you can follow and it isn’t even mostly ours. Imagine you are Rockstar.

    LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Two NBC affiliates in Arkansas and Indiana are turning the page on upcoming series "The Book of Daniel," which has been drawing criticism for its portrayal of Christianity. The series depicts an Episcopalian minister, played by Aidan Quinn, struggling with an addiction to Vicodin, among other problems in his diocese. Jesus is actually a character on the series, depicted in imagined conversations with the minister. Last month, the conservative American Family Assn. began calling on affiliates and advertisers to bail out of "Daniel." Many stations have been flooded with e-mails and calls from viewers objecting...
