Lock him up!


You've got to hand it to whoever at the BBC selected the photo of Prince Charles here. They couldn't have chosen a better one to make him look shifty. From that photo, he's clearly got a guilty conscience.

The Most Contentious Story

Sadly, Honest Reporting has lowered its expectations enough to claim Christiane Amanpour’s ‘apology’ as a victory.  SUCCESS: Following our campaign for a public apology, @CNN ’s @amanpour says live on air: “I have written to Rabbi Leo Dee to apologize and make sure that he knows that we apologize for any further pain that may have caused him.” See the full story here: https://t.co/ppmGQL5927 pic.twitter.com/PxWeyB0id0 — HonestReporting (@HonestReporting) May 22, 2023 “I misspoke and said that they were killed in a shootout instead of “a shooting” Sorry, but apologising for accidentally uttering the word “Shoot out ” rather than “Shoot ing ” isn’t fooling anyone.

National Gallery of Art,  November 20, 2022–February 12, 2023 Palazzo Ducale, Venice,  March 18, 2023–June 18, 2023   A leading figure in the art of Renaissance Venice, Vittore Carpaccio (c. 1460/1466–1525/1526) is best known for his large, spectacular narrative paintings that brought sacred history to life. Celebrated in his native city of Venice for centuries, beloved for his observant eye, fertile imagination, and storytelling prowess, Carpaccio remains little known in the U.S.—except as a namesake culinary dish, "Steak Carpaccio.” Vittore Carpaccio: Master Storyteller of Renaissance Venice  is set to establish the artist’s reputation among American visitors with this, his first retrospective ever held outside Italy. The exhibition will be on view at the National Gallery of Art from November 20, 2022, through February 12, 2023.   Some 45 paintings and 30 drawings will include large-scale canvases painted for Venice’s charitable societies and churches ...
