April 7, 2017 Hour 2

Ana, Cenk, Jimmy, and Amberia are hosting. Cenk reads tweets. The O’Reilly Factor ended 15 minutes early on Thursday. Ana supposes that it could be because of so many advertisers backing out. They cut to a “breaking news” story that was already announced, but they didn’t play the O’Reilly Factor re-run later in the night like they usually do. Ana says it’s ridiculous that they are speculating over whether O’Reilly’s career is over. He’s sexually assaulted so many women, and the network doesn’t seem to care. Cenk talks about how in the old days, boss’s got away with sexually assaulting their employees and threatening to fire them if they refuse their advances. Alabama governor not only had an affair, but he used public funds to continue on with that affair. Now, the state is calling to impeach him, but he’s fighting tooth and nail to remain in office. Ana says she doesn’t care that he’s having the affair. The problem is that he was using public funds to aid his affair. Cenk said the problem is that he’s been lying. Cenk doesn’t buy Bentley saying he “found Jesus” and has sought forgiveness. Twitter is suing the Trump administration, who is trying to reveal the identity of a Twitter account of someone who is supposedly in the government relating to immigration policy. The panel hopes Trump’s supporters will be against Trump in this because if there’s what the the alt-right loves, it’s freedom of speech. Ana says what Trump is doing is similar to what Putin does in Russia, like having the Russian government ban a picture of Putin in makeup/drag. Facebook has developed a system to prevent revenge porn from being posted. The system will prevent porn from being reposted by assessing videos like YouTube does with Content ID. The panel is concerned about how this database will be handled.
