Earlier this year, President Barack Obama announced the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which is designed for a certain group of immigrants - those aged 30 or younger who came to the U.S. before the age of 16. Anyone who applies must also have lived here for five years and be free of any criminal history. And the immigrants need to have either a high school diploma or prior service in the military. Critics say the law gives a free pass to people who are here illegally, but those who moved here as young children say they had no choice. Now, many local groups are pushing for eligible people to apply, and it only takes a few pages of paperwork to get started. Luis Escoto graduated from Glenn Cliff High School last year, but he wasn't quite 3 years old when his parents moved to this country from Guadalajara, Mexico. The 19-year-old is an undocumented illegal immigrant, and he said he feels like he is in a kind of limbo. At any time, immigration could deport him. "I'm in fear of one day I could be deported and my parents would be left here, and there would be no one to really take care of them," Escoto said. The Tennessee Immigration and Refugee Rights Coalition, or TIRRC, is urging undocumented immigrants who are From the Associated Press under the age of 31 to fill out the paperwork and take workshops that will allow them to stay here a few years without fear of deportation. Aniston, Theroux engaged The Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals program is not a pathway to citizenship like the Obama administration's Apartment prison for woman Dream Act, but it does buy time and allows young people like Escoto some latitude in temporary citizenship. New trend: Obstacle courses "It allows them relief from deportation, and it also allows them to apply for a work permit that has to be renewed every Fiance killed on wedding day two years," said Eben Cathey, with TIRRC. Today's Top News Nearly 6,000 people are eligible for deferred action in Middle Tennessee. For more information, visit: http://tnimmigrant.org.

  • Billy Bush Says There Were 8 Witnesses to Trump's 'Access Hollywood'
    The Washington Post Morning Mix Billy Bush says there were 8 witnesses to Trump’s ‘Access Hollywood’ comments By Derek Hawkins December 4 Billy Bush, the former “Access Hollywood” host, has responded to recent reports that President Trump has questioned the authenticity of video in which he can be heard bragging about grabbing women by their genitalia, saying the president was “indulging in some revisionist history.” Bush said that seven people, in addition to him, heard Trump. In a commentary Sunday for the New York Times, Bush said he was disturbed by reports from the past week that Trump has told allies and at least one senator that he may not be the voice on the 2005 “Access Hollywood” tape. “He said it,” Bush wrote, referring to Trump’s now infamous “grab them by the p‑‑‑y” remark made on an “Access Hollywood” bus. “Of course he said it,” Bush added. “And we laughed along, without a single doubt that this was hypothetical hot air from America’s highest-rated bloviator. Along with Donald Trump and me, there were seven other guys present on the bus at the time, and every single one of us assumed we were listening to a crass standup act. He was performing. Surely we thought, none of this was real.” “We now know better,” he added, referring to the women who came forward to accuse Trump of improper sexual advances. The Washington Post first reported the leaked recording in October 2016. It captured audio of then-candidate Trump boasting to Bush about forcibly kissing, groping and trying to have sex with women as the two rode to a soap opera set to shoot a segment.

    BBC Children’s news and first-run UK originations Statement on the BBC’s request to change its Operating Licence [] Redacted for publication BBC Children’s news and first-run UK originations – Welsh overview STATEMENT: Publication Date: 28 July 2020 Contents Section 1. Overview 1 2. Background 4 3. Our decisions on changes to the Operating Licence 7 Annex A1. Comparison of current and revised Operating Licence conditions 50 A2. Notice of Variation 56 A3. Equality impact assessment 59 1. Overview This document explains Ofcom’s final decisions following a request by the BBC to change its Operating Licence to allow it to meet its news and new content commitments for children by increasing its online provision. This follows a consultation setting out our provisional views, which we published in November 2019. Our research shows that children are increasingly consuming content online, while the reach of linear television on the TV set among children is continuing to decline.1 In April-May 2020, during lockdown, linear viewing saw a resurgence among children, but it is already falling again.2 Given these changes, the BBC must innovate and adapt its approach in order to stay relevant to its youngest audiences. In Ofcom’s most recent Annual Report on the BBC3, we said that the BBC needs to work harder to reach young people by making content that appeals to them and ensuring that it is readily available where they want it. If younger audiences don’t engage with the BBC, then public support for the licence fee could be eroded, which is a significant risk to the future sustainability of the BBC.

It also aims to express how many forms of national mediation, professional negotiation and audience reception deeply modify, and re-shape the TV product. To tackle the manifold facets of this case, four aspects will be analyzed: (trans)national distribution; adaptation and dubbing; global/local stardom; reception and cultural impact. Over a decade, the Italian edition and distribution of the show have changed, together with the national media landscape and its audiences. Keywords: Italian television, media industries, reception studies, dubbing, stardom, celebrity 1 Introduction RuPaul’s Drag Race is a TV show, a reality competition with drag queen contestants performing and being evaluated by expert judges, which has reached the eleventh season and given birth to several extensions and spinoffs. In the US, the program has long been broadcast on linear channel Logo (2009-2016), and has then moved to VH1 (2017-), which is part of the same company, Viacom.

    How Russian Hackers and Trolls Exploited U.S. Media in 20161 KATHLEEN HALL JAMIESON Director, Annenberg Public Policy Center Elizabeth Ware Packard Professor, Annenberg School for Communication University of Pennsylvania s Election Day approached in 2016, up to one in eight prospec- tive voters had not yet decided for whom to ballot for presi- Adent.2 The factors accounting for that atypical state of affairs included dissatisfaction with the candidacies of Republican nominee Donald J. Trump and his Democratic counterpart Hillary Rodham Clinton and large scale defection from the two major political parties.3 Indeed, nearly four in ten respondents told pollsters they considered themselves Independents.4 These phenomena made the electoral outcome especially hospitable to cues in the communication environment in the campaign’s final month. Among those signals were some originating with Russian oper- atives bent on sowing discord in the body politic and undercutting the candidacy of the first female presidential nominee of a major U.S. polit- ical party. Explaining how those Kremlin-tied operatives exploited susceptibilities within the social media platforms and mainstream U.S. press is my goal here. The notion that the public sphere can be a locale in which rational individuals calmly engage each other in elevating argument is utopian.5 Even in the best of times, neither Jeffersonian nor Habermasian ideals 1 Read 27 April 2018 as part of the Democracy Today: Ancient Lessons, Modern Chal- lenges symposium. 2 Aaron Blake, “How America Decided, at the Last Moment, to Elect Donald Trump,” Washington Post, November 17, 2016, https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/ wp/2016/11/17/how-america-decided-at-the-very-last-moment-to-elect-donald-trump/.

Rob Kim/Getty Images By Billy Bush Dec. 3, 2017 He said it. “Grab ’em by the pussy.” Of course he said it. And we laughed along, without a single doubt that this was hypothetical hot air from America’s highest‑rated bloviator.

Surely, we thought, none of this was real. We now know better. Recently I sat down and read an article dating from October of 2016; it was published days after my departure from NBC, a time when I wasn’t processing anything productively.
