Reporter @cmonstah spent time on Parler, a social media platform for right-wing and extremist commentators. Apparently, it has a lot of issues. latimes.com/entertainment-…
The platform—which launched in 2018 and is funded in part by conservative donor Rebekah Mercer—has roughly 11M account holders (fyi Twitter has around 330M). latimes.com/entertainment-…
"Profiles get stuck loading, links often don’t show previews and the search function is primitive," Miranda says.

News also breaks slowly: "Trying to stay informed on Parler is like trying to divine the news by reading your grandparents’ junk mail" latimes.com/entertainment-…

Netflix has pulled “Chappelle’s Show," Dave Chappelle's successful sketch-comedy series, from the streaming service.

@TheCDZ explains why (thread) latimes.com/entertainment-…
The comedian told his version of events in a profanity-peppered video titled “Unforgiven.”

Basically, he signed a contract granting Comedy Central the rights to “Chappelle’s Show” in perpetuity.
latimes.com/entertainment-…
"I signed the contract the way that a 28-year-old expectant father that was broke signs a contract. I was desperate. I needed a way out," he said. “I called [Netflix] and I told them that this makes me feel bad"

“The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” have recently had opportunities to redeem their reputations, launching new seasons in the wake of protests over systemic racism.

But increased representation of Black people hasn't led to thoughtful dialogue on race latimes.com/entertainment-…
For much of its 18-year run, “The Bachelor” stood firm against repeated calls to feature a Black lead. (“Big Brother” has also regularly featured predominantly white casts).

And Black houseguests had long complained of being targeted and bullied latimes.com/entertainment-… Image
And these two weren’t the only reality TV shows with histories of houseguests experiencing racism.

(Back in 2019, we wrote about “Big Brother” and repeated allegations of misconduct from fellow contestants) latimes.com/entertainment-…
