News Media

Kindness is a super power and not a weakness. Practice it. Don’t be lazy.

NBC News Overnight was one of the smartest television news programs. Appealing to an eclectic audience of college students, nursing mothers, and late shift workers, the show broke the conventional "lowest common denominator" style of most news programs and injected humor into an otherwise seemingly boring medium, while providing news analysis of a kind usually unseen on other major-network newscasts. TIME named it one of the best programs, calling it "TV's wittiest, toughest, least snazzy news strip"and, one of the best programs of 1980s. The duPont Columbia Awards awards jury cited NBC News Overnight as "possibly the best written and most intelligent news program ever."

While reflecting on the complex and dynamic nature of the United States—how our strength relies on diversity and individualism, but also how this can sometimes lead to fragmentation. There's an undeniable tension in the idea that the country’s chaotic blend of perspectives, identities, and values could either be its downfall or its greatest asset. Diversity, while often challenging to manage, creates a kind of unpredictability that makes it tough to control or dominate the American spirit.

The idea that America is "uncontrollable" is powerful. It speaks to the inherent resilience and independence documented throughout the nation’s history. From the Revolution to civil rights movements and beyond, Americans have often defied authority or resisted conformity. It’s not always smooth or even peaceful, but it’s a persistent force.

The struggle for cohesion can be both a weakness and a strength. The fact that so many people, ideologies, and cultures coexist here creates a nation that's perpetually evolving, and often innovating. A fool who thinks they can control US might be in for a rude awakening.

What are your thoughts on how this mix of strengths and challenges plays out in current times?
