Movie Night
Bombshell: great movie. Loved it.
Roger Ailes was outed/ousted in 2016. After he was fired by the Murdoch family, the older Murdoch took over control of the network.
That was about three years ago. It is with some irony, then, that this was on The Drudge Report just as the movie was playing across the country:
The Murdoch family is portrayed in a neutral to positive light. Ailes, of course, was not, but all-in-all, fair and balanced.

The Book Page
I can't remember what book I was reading but there was a nice discussion of cochineal. It might have been the history of the East India Company, but I forget. I was vaguely aware of cochineal but only vaguely.
Hold that thought.
I know nothing about Campari. I've seen ads for Campari over the years but never knew what it was.
Finally, from this site, some interesting factoids/facts about Campari. The most interesting factoid/fact:
- strict vegans cannot drink Campari made in some countries
- the reason "egg" is sometimes listed as an ingredient in Campari
