Australian Reporter Lauren Tomasi Hit By Rubber Bullet In Dramatic Footage From L.A. Protests
An Australian journalist, Lauren Tomasi, was struck by a rubber bullet while covering immigration protests in Los Angeles. Dramatic footage from her network, 9News, shows the moment she was hit, with the outlet alleging she was intentionally targeted by police. The incident occurred during escalating clashes over Trump-era immigration policies, adding fuel to debates about press freedom and police conduct.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about one reporter getting hurt—it raises bigger questions about how journalists are treated during protests, especially when tensions run high. If the press can’t safely document unrest, it becomes harder to hold power accountable. Plus, with footage going viral, it’s another flashpoint in the global conversation about policing and dissent.

Meanwhile, the strong debut of 28 Years Later suggests that nostalgia or genre appeal might be pulling viewers in a different direction. For Hollywood, it’s another sign that even trusted brands can stumble if they don’t connect.

neutralEntertainment
Olympic legend Allyson Felix, the most decorated track and field athlete in history, opened up about her decision to challenge Nike’s maternity policies—a move she describes as "terrifying and uncomfortable."

Most U.S. Exhibition Execs Think Traditional Moviegoing Has Less Than 20 Years as ‘Viable Business Model,’ According to New Survey
negativeEntertainment
A new survey of 246 U.S. film exhibition executives reveals that over half think the classic movie theater experience—big screens, sticky floors, and all—has fewer than 20 years left as a sustainable way to do business. The study, led by industry analyst Stephen Follows, suggests that streaming, shifting audience habits, or other disruptions could push theaters toward obsolescence sooner than we might expect.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about nostalgia for popcorn and dimming lights—it’s a warning sign for an entire ecosystem. If execs who run theaters are this pessimistic, it could mean fewer screens, job losses, or even faster pivots to streaming-first releases. For movie lovers, it might also signal the end of an era where seeing a film in a crowd felt like an event, not just an option.
