Publisher VALERIA ROBERTS Another View Stop messing with the market n American politics, it is axiomatic that presidents get (and take) the credit for economic prosperity and the blame for Idownturns. The reality is that the state of the U.S. economy at any given time results from factors that the president can control, such as his own policies and leadership style; factors that he can’t control, such as conditions in China, Europe and other distant markets; and factors that he might influence but prob- ably shouldn’t, such as the decisions of the independent Federal Reserve. The current turbulence in the fi nancial markets, limited to paper losses so far but worryingly capable of spreading to the “real” economy, illustrates the point. You think things are bad now? Look back 40 years.

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — For so long, movies around the holidays have been merry and bright. Lately, more and more seem murderous and designed to fright. Take this winter, where, of course, sugary options abound- ed, such as “Mary Poppins Re- turns” on the big screen and “A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding” on TV. Then there’s the post-apocalyptic survival story “Bird Box.” Released just days before Christmas on Netflix, the San- dra Bullock-led thriller is about monstrous entities that compel any human who sees them to quickly try to kill themselves. Not exactly the stuff of sugar plum fairies. But even though Netflix de- clines to release viewership numbers, “Bird Box” seems to have struck a nerve, trig- gering the creation of memes and online chatter for a very dark fi lm dropped into the fes- tive period. “I have never ever had as much attention or as many page likes, post likes/ shares and comments on any of my THE ASSOCIATED PRESS other pages as I have had on this This image released by Netflix shows Sandra Bullock in a scene from the fi lm “Bird Box.” one,” says Heather Drake, who started a Facebook page for fans of the story and is not affiliated In some ways, it shouldn’t Red-Nosed Reindeer.” That supernatural cop drama Bullock and two young children with the fi lm or distributors. “It’s come as a surprise that a fi lm “I don’t honestly think it would also wasn’t received well by crit- are blindfolded while navigating been insane.
