But is that what the people really want?David Imel joins Nilay Patel and Jake Kastrenakes to talk through the Pixel 11's Camera Looks.

Then it's a supersized Brendan Carr is a Dummy, with increasingly infuriating tales of how Brendan Carr is being a Dummy, culminating in the FCC's quest to make sure your internet connection remains slow.

This week, I'm joined by Robert Corn-Revere. Currently the chief counsel at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, Corn-Revere also served as the chief counsel to the Federal Communications Commission chair in 1993 and as a counsel on important First Amendment cases that have made their way all the way to the Supreme Court. (Seriously, check out his Wiki, it's crazy.) We had a pretty in-depth chat about how the FCC works and the myriad ways in which Trump's hand-picked chair, Brendan Carr, is perverting some of the long-term ideals of the commission.
President Trump has some of the worst approval ratings of any president in modern history, second only to Richard Nixon the week before he resigned. On this week's On the Media, what the polls say about Americans' perceptions of Trump and his policies. Plus, a look at the polarized propaganda being beamed into Iran. [01:00] Brooke Gladstone interviews G. Elliott Morris, journalist, statistician, and author of the data-driven news website Strength In Numbers, about public perceptions of President Trump and his policies, and what Trump's historic unpopularity could mean for the upcoming midterm elections. [19:14] Micah Loewinger speaks with Nancy Scola, a reporter covering tech, policy, and politics, about her recent profile of Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr, tracing his trajectory from “spectrum nerd,” to MAGA insider. [36:23] Micah sits down with Nahid Siamdoust, an assistant professor of media and Middle Eastern studies at the University of Texas at Austin, to discuss the state of the Iranian media landscape, and how a newer anti-regime channel, Iran International, is contributing to intense polarization among Iranians around the world.

Google underwent a big AI shakeup this week, leaving a lot of people wondering whether there are big problems on team Gemini. David and Nilay start the show by discussing what's next for Jeff Dean and Demis Hassabis, before diving into the ways in which Google and Reddit have become existentially, problematically dependent on one another. After that, we talk through Disney's plan to turn Disney Plus into an everything app, and all the reasons we think that's a terrible idea and a sign of big problems in the streaming biz. Finally, in the lightning round, Brendan Carr is still a dummy, Snapchat wants AI out of your feed, and BMW has a Spider-Man to sell you.

Donald Trump and his dutiful Federal Communications Commission chair, Brendan Carr, have been targeting a number of ABC's broadcast licenses, and ABC just challenged this hard in a new filing. In an interesting move, ABC cited Trump's own social media postings and remarks at speeches to show that he is corruptly trying to censor the network as punishment for its content and viewpoints, in violation of the First Amendment. Amusingly, in those examples, Trump blurted right out in public that he does in fact want the FCC to punish ABC precisely because of its speech. Now this has become a weapon against Trump. We talked to law professor Leah Litman, author of a good book about the Supreme Court. She explains why Trump's public bullying of ABC should undermine his case, walks us through the legal ins-and-outs here, details why ABC might prevail, and discusses how open, explicit corruption is intrinsic to his political project.

And a preview from POLITICO's podcast, The Conversation, where Dasha Burns sits down with the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr.

Pags takes a closer look at the latest Texas polling and asks whether the headlines are telling the whole story. With media outlets claiming key statewide races are tightening, Pags breaks down who is actually being surveyed, how polling samples can shape the narrative, and what a "suppression poll" is—explaining why some polls may be designed to influence voters as much as measure them. He also discusses whether Sen. John Cornyn could stand in the way of Todd Blanche's nomination. Then FCC Chairman Brendan Carr joins the program for a wide-ranging interview, responding directly to claims that he's trying to silence ABC, Disney, or Jimmy Kimmel, explaining what the FCC can and can't do. Carr also discusses cracking down on foreign robocall operations, whether more customer service jobs could return to the United States, expanding satellite connectivity to rural America, and how new technology could dramatically improve phone and internet service for millions of Americans.

Some presidents are known as uplifting orators; our present president is known for petulant putdowns.Periodically, Trump discovers a new pejorative that he considers clever, so he wears it out attacking his endless list of enemies. His current favorite is “lunatic,” hurling the slur at women reporters, most foreign leaders, all Democrats, protestors, and… well, everyone who offends him.But if he wants some real lunatics to belittle, why not that menagerie he's appointed to top government positions? Such as Brendan Carr, Trump's FCC attack dog who keeps yapping that he's gonna abolish NPR.Failing at that, Carr has now gone from silly to ridiculous, pushing a phantasmagoric scheme that truly is lunacy. It comes from some Elon Musk protégés who apparently noticed that our planet gets dark as night falls. Eureka, they exclaimed, we need to “light the night!”Why? Well, they say, to illuminate all city streets and rural roads, make crops grow faster, and stuff like that. But how to generate the light? Easy, the geniuses explain: Mirrors.They want government support to deploy a global network of orbiting space mirrors that could reflect sunlight onto Earth's rotating dark areas. Lots of mirrors – the schemers propose to put 50,000 in our skies by 2030, with each of the largest ones shining as bright as 100 full moons!Nothing could go wrong with that, right? Bedazzled, Carr didn't ask. Instead, with no public input, he just rubber-stamped an initial launch of this “novel technology,” blandly assuring us that “harms are unlikely to occur.”To oppose this lunacy, connect with the American Astronomical Society: aas.org.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

In this special episode, Brian Tyler Cohen, progressive content creator and author of The Day After, joins Peter to diagnose the Democratic Party's persistent media problem. Cohen digs into why the party's reliance on traditional press has left it flat-footed against Trump's effective use of various platforms. He also takes aim at the F.C.C. under Brendan Carr, and makes the case that broader outreach—and far less infighting—is the only way forward for his party.

ABC has enlisted the help of its audience to defend The View and Jimmy Kimmel against attacks from the Federal Communications Commission. On this week's On the Media, hear about the MAGA movement trying to shift television to the right. Plus, the legal theory that the FCC is using to put pressure on the networks. [01:00] Host Brooke Gladstone speaks with Jim Rutenberg, writer-at-large for the New York Times, about how Trump's FCC is reviving a nearly century-old rule to crack down on late-night talk shows. Rutenberg explains why MAGA's embrace of the FCC's regulatory powers to go after “liberal bias” in the media signals a shift within the Republican party. [26:47] Brooke sits down with Daniel Suhr, the president of a legal advocacy group called the Center for American Rights and the architect behind the legal theory that the FCC is using to put pressure on TV networks. They discuss his goal to make network TV look more like the AM radio band.

Nilay and David discuss how that happened, and what it means for the AI industry, and all of us, that Apple's voice assistant is finally useful. Then, we have some news about Bluesky, Threads, and YouTube that adds up to a big change in social networks, plus the Hype Desk, Brendan Carr, the Trump Phone, and a really great deal for iPad users Further reading: Apple announces Siri AI and its next generation of Apple Intelligence I tried Siri AI, and so far it actually works Apple's new Siri AI knows when to shut up I'm relieved Siri AI isn't trying to be a health coach You can just tell the Instagram algorithm what you want now YouTube is introducing DMs (again) Bluesky is getting ‘communities' Anthropic releases its first Mythos-class model Claude Fable Claude Fable won't answer basic biology questions Anthropic apologizes for invisible Claude Fable guardrails Microsoft restricts Claude Fable for employees over data retention concerns YouTube is introducing DMs (again) Bluesky is getting ‘communities' iFixit Trump phone teardown confirms it's an HTC dupe Solar has overtaken coal in the US for the first time AT&T is launching $3 ‘unlimited' day passes for iPads Subscribe to The Verge for unlimited access to theverge.com, subscriber-exclusive newsletters, and our ad-free podcast feed.We love hearing from you!

A 37-year 60 Minutes correspondent got fired in a conference room over a dinner he refused to attend. Scott Pelley lost his job and won the PR war in the same week, and the side that was supposed to be running the institution handed him the moral high ground in writing.Everyone is covering the firing. Molly is covering the two dueling statements, the word "performative" in a termination letter, and the moment CBS made it personal while Pelley kept it strictly business.Chapters:0:00 — The Cinnamon Gummy Bear and a Notification That Ended 37 Years3:30 — Bari Weiss, David Ellison and the Paramount Skydance Takeover7:00 — Tanya Simon Out, Nick Bilton In, and a 60 Minutes EP With No Broadcast Background10:30 — "She Is Murdering 60 Minutes" — The All-Staff Meeting Ambush15:00 — Reading the Bilton Termination Letter Line by Line20:00 — "It's Not Personal, It's Business" — The Godfather and You've Got Mail Move24:30 — Pelley's Statement, the 19 Minutes, and Why He Never Names Weiss or Bilton30:00 — The Trump Lawsuit, Brendan Carr and the Warner Bros Acquisition Motive34:00 — Bari Weiss's Leaked "Find a Way Back" CBS Morning Call38:00 — The Three Remaining Correspondents, Megyn Kelly's "Whiny" Callout and the Wednesday Podcast SwitchWe dissect:-The Paramount Skydance ownership change, David Ellison's fingerprints on every move, and why Bari Weiss arriving as editor-in-chief last October was the real start of the timeline-Nick Bilton's resume — British documentary filmmaker, ex-New York Times tech columnist, Elizabeth Holmes credits, zero broadcast journalism — and why that detail matters at the institution Mike Wallace built-The exact line Pelley fired across the room — "She's murdering 60 Minutes. She does not love this place. She was brought in to kill it" — and why a 37-year veteran called it a setup-Bilton's termination letter dissected aloud — the present-tense "it is a profound disappointment," the dinner invitation framing, "performative misconduct," and the leak that contradicted its own claim about not making headlines-Pelley's written reply naming nothing personal — "new management instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias," the 19-minutes-from-not-airing specificity, and the accusation that politicians are being invited to choose correspondents-Bari Weiss's leaked CBS Morning call — "trust and mutual respect," "find a way back" — and why that single phrase handed Pelley a second statement to puncture-The Trump 60 Minutes lawsuit settlement, FCC chair Brendan Carr, and the Warner Bros acquisition as the business motive sitting under every editorial move-The three remaining full-time correspondents reportedly debating mass retirement, Megyn Kelly calling the Bilton letter "whiny," a Stephen Colbert exit comparison, and a Keith Olbermann–Tony Dokoupil sidebar nobody saw coming-This is not a broadcast-news obituary for 60 Minutes. It is a side-by-side read of two statements written about the same room, and a reminder that in a crisis the choice between "new management" and a person's name is the entire ballgame.Want More Behind the Breakdown?

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin recall the weekend and envision the week on today's KITM. Donald K. Trump burned through 11 layers of makeup before doddering off the set of Hee Haw/Meet the Press on Sunday. Facts do anger Trump but will never stop him. Donald makes it about himself. If he can make America's 250th anniversary all about him, why not some basketball game? If the game can't be played, Trump can stand in the center of the court and bask… in whatever they want to bask him in. It doesn't matter as long as he's being basked. Scott Pelley was at CBS supervising the editing of videos to make ICE protesters look like rioters, when Bari Weiss came along and tried to make him cross his ethical line. Brendan Carr can tell you it is the boss who always draws the ethical lines. Often it is the boss who erases the ethical lines. Anywhere the Trump Supreme Court draws a line, at that moment it is exactly where that line should go. If there was a Purcell principle for Secretaries of State, it was just violated in Texas. Meanwhile, Ken Paxton's defense lawyer endorses James Talarico.
It's developer conference season, and one of the themes so far has been big swings at AI apps. We've seen Gemini Spark, Microsoft Scout, and so many other attempts to figure out what people, and companies, actually want their AI to do. Nilay and David discuss their experiences with the apps, before turning to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's vision for the AI-filled laptop of the future. Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for the Hype Desk, Brendan Carr is a Dummy, a deeply dumb Meta hack, and the future of a favorite VR game. Further reading: Testing Google's Gemini Spark AI agent: it's incredible, and creepy Gemini's new AI agent is about as good as Google's demo Microsoft Scout is a new AI personal assistant built on OpenClaw Microsoft's Project Solara is an OS for AI agent gadgets As AI gets better, it reveals an empty promise Let us filter AI slop, you cowards Microsoft and OpenAI broke up — now they're ready to fight These are the first Nvidia RTX Spark laptops This is the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra with Nvidia RTX Spark A first look at Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra and Surface Dev Box Nvidia is already planning N2X and N3X chips — the goal is the Star Trek computer This could be Windows' M1 moment — but expect it to cost a ton Computex 2026: All the news and announcements Meta's own AI was exploited to hijack Instagram accounts Apple's strategy for smart glasses is the same as for smart watches It sure seems like the Vision Pro isn't getting upgraded for a while — if ever.

The Ferrari Luce is here, and suffice to say it is not the electric Ferrari anyone expected. Nilay and David dig into the Jony Ive-designed car, from its marvelously appointed interior to its decidedly non-Ferrari-like exterior. (You might even call it... Nissan Leaf-like.) After that, the hosts discuss some of the latest backlash against AI, Google's ongoing AI-based changes to Search, and AI content labels. Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for Brendan Carr is a Dummy, some deeply nerdy display tech, and the incredible rising price of everything.

Then, Nilay and David get back into the weeds on all things Google I/O, and in particular the ways AI is changing the Google Search experience. When Gemini can find things for you, make things for you, even buy things for you, are you even searching anymore?

Kara is joined by FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez, Knight First Amendment Institute executive director Jameel Jaffer, and The Verge editor-in-chief Nilay Patel to discuss FCC Chairman Brendan Carr's escalating campaign against media companies, broadcasters and speech President Trump dislikes. They discuss Carr's threats against ABC/Disney, his attempts to revive old rules around “equal time” and “news distortion,” and the Trump administration's broader push to control federal agencies. They also explain how Carr's actions create a chilling effect on free speech, and why media companies must fight back. Plus: Why Nilay says Carr's actions towards broadcasters are a "test balloon" for future internet regulation. Questions? Comments?

The Musk v. OpenAI trial continues, which means so do the allegations and leaks surrounding some of the most influential people in tech. Nilay and David recount the most interesting and entertaining moments from the courtroom this week, before digging into what we've learned about when Sam Altman was fired. After that, the hosts discuss OpenAI's apparent plans to build a phone, which seem utterly necessary and utterly doomed, along with the new Fitbit Air and a truly strange new home robot. Finally, in the lightning round, it's time for the Hype Desk, Brendan Carr is a Dummy, the Chinese company that wants to make everything, and the next big rebrand for xAI.
