Earlier this week, Donald Trump Jr. shared an image on Twitter equating the Syrian refugee crisis with a bowl of Skittles. According to the image, “our Syrian refugee problem” is like being handed a bowl of Skittles and being told that only three of them would kill you. “Would you take a handful?” it boldly …
On Wednesday morning, Apple took the stage in San Francisco to unveil the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Although countless leaks had spoiled virtually every feature coming to the new model, thousands and thousands of smartphone users still tuned in to see if Apple was really going to remove the headphone jack. As it …
Although the incredible athletic performances and moving human stories should have taken center stage at the Olympics, we were unfortunately too distracted by the saga of Ryan Lochte to pay much attention to the actual competitions.
Something incredible happened last week during the Republican National Convention. No, it wasn’t when Ben Carson tried to convince America that Hillary Clinton was in league with Lucifer.

Yes, we have Trevor Noah in his place at The Daily Show, John Oliver tearing it up every Sunday on Last Week Tonight and Samantha Bee proving she deserves her own show with Full Frontal, but …
This is one of the strangest things I’ve seen on late night TV in quite a while. On Friday’s episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Colbert participated in a race against Mitch Fowler, the current world record holder for speedrunning Super Mario Bros. 3 on the Nintendo Entertainment System.

If there’s one thing that Stephen Colbert is proud of — more so than his shows, his books and possibly even his family — it’s his love of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
