Warner Music Group (WMG) Q4 2024 Earnings Call TranscriptConor Bradley destroyed Kylian Mbappe in every way and Alexis Mac Allister was a prime Luka Modric against the actual Luka Modric. Liverpool are good. Real Madrid are bad. Whether you love, hate or are indifferent towards Liverpool, we were all Conor Bradley. An academy lad who’s the most second of second fiddles in his position at the club, playing his first ever Champions League game against the reigning champions and champion of all champions, and he clears out the best footballer in the world – albeit The Artist Formerly Known As Kylian Mbappe on this showing and others this season – with a glorious man and ball challenge to produce the sort of roar from a crowd typically reserved for game-winning goals. Spine tingles and ‘ooofffss’ all round. It’s a sure red card if he gets it wrong but not having the time or headspace in an already fervent atmosphere to make a risk assessment worked in his and Liverpool’s favour, with his and his team’s level rising a couple of notches on the back of a tackle every fat dad bellowing from the stands or watching at home would loved to have made on a footballer we can all agree could do with a good (fair) kicking once in a while. Bradley very nearly opened the scoring himself before playing a key role as the Reds deservedly took the lead. Alexis Mac Allister had played two similarly brilliant lofted passes in the first half to cause chaos in the Real Madrid defence and the best of the lot found Bradley’s perfectly-timed run in the 51st-minute, with Thibaut Courtois producing another excellent save to palm the full-back’s header away, having denied Darwin Nunez twice in the first half. Mac Allister was playing like a prime Luka Modric against a less-than prime Luka Modric. In a fraught, end-to-end, exhausting game in which neither team seemed able or even willing to try to string more than three or four passes together, the Argentinian had time and space on the ball, consistently made the right decisions and always looked the best bet to make the difference. He picked the ball up in the pocket in front of the Madrid defence, played a neat pass into Bradley, who acted as a wall on the right side of the box to pop the ball straight back into the midfielder, who took a touch and fired his shot into the far corner. Ally McCoist got a tad carried away with what we would suggest was a relatively simple first-time pass from Bradley to assist that goal, nicely weighted though it was, but the 21-year-old’s other contributions allow the frankly unbelievable thought to creep in that Liverpool might just be alright without the most talented right-back English football has ever seen . And it was hard to watch Mbappe consistently failing to release himself from the pocket of a full-back working as hard as Bradley without the ball and so effectively with it and think anything other than Liverpool would actually have been worse off with Trent Alexander-Arnold on the pitch in his place. Cue midfield transition chat... MORE LIVERPOOL FEATURES ON F365 👉 Trent Alexander-Arnold ‘tarnished’ by Real Madrid move? Only by idiots... 👉 Five next moves for Salah ranked on likelihood include leaving Liverpool for Barcelona 👉 Culture wars, ref justice and how the league might look if Mo Salah didn’t exist We were utterly convinced we were going to go two for two in our penalty predictions. It was really poor from Andy Robertson to concede Madrid’s penalty, turning his back as Lucas Vasquez faked a cross, but after the game Mbappe had had, after the season he’s had, Coimhin Kelleher was always going to make what was a good (because penalty saves must always be called such) but comfortable save. As Mohamed Salah stepped up to take the penalty he won by turning Ferland Mendy inside out we were bracing ourselves for a Never In Doubt-like cliche from Darren Fletcher, before the Egyptian failed to even hit the target to remind us of an average penalty record that sees him miss one of every five (44 scored; 11 missed). For once this game wasn’t about him. There was next to no danger of a Madrid comeback anyway but Cody Gakpo put the game beyond doubt with quite the leap and header from a Robertson corner as defenders stood and watched. And while this is undoubtedly a Big Win for Liverpool, which maintains their 100 per cent record in the Champions League and all but secures their automatic qualification, this was a Madrid side well short of its best, both in terms of performance and personnel. No Vinicius Junior, no Rodrygo, no Eder Militao, no David Alaba, no Aurelien Tchouameni, no Dani Carvajal. That’s an injury list to rival that of Manchester City, who look set to feel the full force of Liverpool on Sunday. If winning is a hard habit to break, Arne Slot’s side are in 20-a-day territory right now. After the final whistle, Rio Ferdinand claimed – entirely reasonably for once – that “Liverpool are the team to beat in Europe right now”. There was also effectively no Mbappe, who likely had no idea who Conor Bradley was when he rocked up at Anfield. But having enjoyed nothing other than a faceful of turf courtesy of the full-back, he now knows exactly who Conor Bradley is.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Rarely in my nearly 40-year career as a journalist have I felt the target on my back as continuously and intensely as I have in the last 15 months. Frankly, those are words that I hesitated to type. After all, we live in a time when some of the subjects of my investigations want me to feel that pressure. They want me to be intimidated. They want me to be afraid. But you — as people who trust me to be a truth-teller in an age when truth can be elusive, as people I call my neighbors and friends — deserve to know what it is like to be in my shoes. To be clear, this is not a plea for sympathy – far from it. I made a conscious decision to confront white supremacists, QAnon conspiracy theorists and other forms of political extremism. That was my choice — no one ordered me to do it — and I would make the same choice again because, in my view, it is important work for our democracy. Instead, I write in hopes that you may understand what is at stake for all of us — as Nashvillians, as Tennesseans, as Americans. I write so that you will see me and other journalists as fellow human beings who strive every day to tell you about who’s pulling the levers of power in your government. Just like you, we are not perfect. But we do our best. Local journalists like myself do this work because we care about our communities. We want the best for those cities and towns because they are the places where we have chosen to settle, where we go to church and synagogue, where we raise our own families. Being a local journalist also brings its own unique vulnerabilities. After all, we do not parachute into your communities to do stories, then catch the next flight out of town. In the end, for people with evil intentions, we are probably not that difficult to find — after all, we live our lives among the people we serve. Yet, there are sinister forces at work in our society who want you to hate me. They want you to despise all journalists — because they would prefer to live in a world where there are no watchdogs to hold them accountable. Late last year, when I exposed the role of white supremacists in the campaign for mayor in Franklin, Tennessee, the hate groups responded with a series of veiled threats against me. One account lashed out on the Telegram messaging app, calling me “a lying sack of sh*t for the international jew media” and warning that the “Day of the Rope is real.” That is a reference to the day predicted in the racist novel The Turner Diaries when journalists and other “race traitors” will be hanged. “You better run... run... run,” the post added. Their posts also mocked my late wife, who died in 2016 after losing a yearslong, sometimes-public battle with alcoholism. Before the mayoral campaign was over, neo-Nazis plastered posters with my image around Franklin, under the headline: “Stop Corruption in Tennessee.” Another white supremacist account also posted demands about what I would be required to include in my reporting about the hate groups. "This is our only Warning," the anonymous account declared, adding the tagline: "Always Watching, Always Listening, Always Near." Still, that did not deter me from my reporting. The people of Franklin turned out at the polls in record numbers, and the mayoral candidate with white supremacist ties was resoundingly defeated. Last December, as I walked Franklin’s Christmas parade with my NewsChannel 5 colleagues, residents repeatedly called out: “Thanks for saving our city.” And local civil leaders delivered "a very big thank you" card to my office. What a nice gesture! An incredible card signed by a group of Franklin residents!!! ❤️❤️❤️ https://t.co/ecOb8bHM9w pic.twitter.com/8RLRssw5DH That is why I do this work. Then, this past spring and summer, there was a new round of attacks when my investigation exposed the QAnon-aligned assistant police chief in Millersville, Tennessee – and how his bizarre conspiracy theories had affected how Millersville police performed their duties. In that case, fellow conspiracy theorists took to InfoWars, as well as far-right podcasts and social media, to falsely label me as either a pedophile or a “pedophile protector.” They falsely suggested that I was part of an organized crime network. They falsely claimed I might be involved in a homosexual affair with a former Nashville TV personality and may have covered up what they imagined might be the murder of his son. WATCH: I never dreamed that all of this would happen as a result of my investigation of Millersville, Tennessee's #ConspiracyCop . Attempts to smear me or intimidate me only make me more determined to get to the truth. #StayTuned pic.twitter.com/eYrDvOCAxp One national QAnon-aligned figure, Craig (Sawman) Sawyer, even falsely hinted in a social-media video that I may have murdered my late wife — completely disregarding the truth of her unsuccessful battle against addiction. Again, the story of Millersville’s “conspiracy cop” was a story that needed to be told – and so my investigation continued despite the malicious efforts to discredit me. Recently, as I attended the first meeting of a newly elected Millersville City Commission, local residents wanted to shake my hand to thank me for what I had done for their town. Now, people associated with the white Christian nationalists moving into Jackson County, Tennessee, have pulled out the playbook used by my critics in Franklin and Millersville. None of the subjects of that reporting would agree to sit down and answer my questions directly. Instead, on social media, they have accused me of lying about their beliefs – even though every single statement attributed to them was backed up by a supporting hyperlink – and questioned whether my reporting has been motivated by an anti-religious world view. On the Sunday night before Christmas, critics of my reporting took to X to engage in what appears to have been an organized social-media attack by national far-right figures. “Do you disclose your hatred for God and for conservative Americans – and your financial association with media organs that shares these hatred (sic) in all your articles?” asked one of the developers, Nate Fischer, in a post on X. Do you disclose your hatred for God and for conservative Americans—and your financial association with media organs that shares these hatred—in all of your articles? Important to be up front about your motives. Sean Davis, co-founder and CEO of the Federalist, told his 528,000 followers that I was a “deranged and washed-up left-wing activist with a byline” and mockingly suggested it “sure would be a shame” if my TV station lost its FCC license. Because we had flown a helicopter over the undeveloped land purchased in Jackson County, he falsely accused me of “stalking Christians and trespassing on their property.” Peeping Phil Williams claims he never “stepped foot” on someone’s private property, because what he did was charter a helicopter to hover over a person’s property so he could take pictures and spy and stalk. I’ll let you decide what’s creepier. If you are a Christian... https://t.co/UJ8V92PVfx “If you are a Christian conservative with children, you should probably get a restraining order on Peeping Phil to protect your family,” Davis added, drawing responses like: “He looks and behaves like what I could imagine a pedo would.” Soon, far-right provocateur Jack Posobiec – who, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, “has collaborated with white supremacists, neo-fascists and antisemites for years” – directed the ire of his three million X followers at me. “Hard to say what @NC5PhilWilliams loves more... Spreading lies... Or hating Christians... Christmastime is very hard for him! (Much like telling the truth),” Posobiec posted. Hard to say what @NC5PhilWilliams loves more Spreading lies Or hating Christians Christmastime is very hard for him! (Much like telling the truth) Soon, the right-wing mob manipulated X’s Community Notes to make a false claim about my reporting – forcing me to shut down comments on X to stem the endless stream of hate. (The Community Note was later removed after I challenged it.) . @CommunityNotes has been weaponized by the right wing to LIE about my post. Here is the note pushed by the trolls, then my original post. This is really, really bad! @oliverdarcy @brianstelter (Plz RT) pic.twitter.com/lq1Q0b1f7J One of Posobiec’s followers celebrated the social media mob with a crude reference to me being on the receiving end of a gang rape. Christian nationalist William Wolfe — who has warned that “we are getting close” to a moment when Christians will need to “heed the call to arms” – joined the victory laps. “The bold community journalist @NC5PhilWilliams has had himself quite a night,” Wolfe posted on X. And another one of the developers on the Jackson County project, Josh Abbotoy – who had previously responded to my original request for comment with just five words, “lol you’re such a hack” – texted me just before 11 p.m. seemingly to gloat over the attack. “Merry Christmas,” Abbotoy wrote. Since he had tweeted just an hour before that my station "needs to put Peeping Phil out to pasture," the season's greetings seemed less than sincere. Now, in response to my reporting about the influential hate conference that calls Tennessee its "home away from home," people affiliated with the neo-Nazis in Franklin, Tennessee, have invoked my image, along with the message: "Stay tuned Tennessee." In such moments, I often think of one of my mentors, legendary Tennessean editor and publisher John Seigenthaler. Taking a break from journalism as a young man, John worked for Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy. In 1961, John was assigned to accompany the Freedom Riders as they traveled the Deep South to protest segregation of the region's bus terminals. In Montgomery, Alabama, an angry mob attacked the protesters. Rushing to the aid of one woman, John was himself beaten and knocked unconscious. John's commitment to confronting hate inspired me as a young journalist, and it continues to be a guiding force for me today. These days, the faces and tactics have changed, but the hate remains the same. Journalists like myself have a choice: surrender to the fascist mob that wants to intimidate the truth-tellers – or rededicate ourselves to doing what’s right no matter the cost. For me, while the attacks are personal, so is the cause. I choose not to bow to the pressure. I choose not to be intimidated. I choose not to be afraid. Recently, I had a chance to chat with my friend, veteran journalist and journalism educator Al Tompkins, about these sorts of attacks. Al brings years of incredible experience to the conversation, along with the more objective insight of not being the one in the crosshairs. “It is not unusual in 2024 for radicals to attack journalists by name,” Al said. “It is unnerving and because you are a journalist, not a random person, you cannot counterattack in the same personal way. "You are handcuffed by your profession’s ethical code and by your corporate lawyers from delving into the attacker’s personal and family life as they do yours.” People like Craig Sawyer, Al noted, “communicate largely through social media and never sit down for an on-the-record conversation except for like-minded radicals.” “These characters also have learned that when they can stir the public’s emotions, the public focuses on the anger/fear and suspend disbelief or rational inquiry,” he added. “In my experience, when the messenger can raise emotions and fear, and repeat the messaging time and time again, the normal human reaction is to overreact.” Another friend, veteran Denver investigative reporter Jeremy Jojola, has faced his own threats when reporting on hate groups and conspiracy theorists. “Getting attacked by conspiracy theorists, especially public officials, can be an opportunity for journalists to share how journalism works. It can also be an opportunity to share how those in power react to being held accountable,” Jeremy noted. “Journalists do not like to be part of the story, but sometimes we must speak out when our integrity is being questioned by people in power.” As Al and I discussed, it can be confusing for you, the consumers of news, to know what to believe. After all, you are bombarded with voices — from both the right and left — that tell you to disregard reporting that attempts to hold their people accountable for their actions. ”The public rightfully and increasingly demands to know how journalists know what they know,” Al added. “It is increasingly important to ‘show your work’ and give the public as much access to unedited, unredacted evidence that the reporter relied on to produce the report.” For me, that has been a key part of how I have pursued these investigations. When my work has been questioned, I have prepared detailed responses so that you can see the evidence for yourself and make up your own mind.

You can see the evidence yourself. All of that brings me to the following request. If you value the importance of a free press, please do not forget that I and my colleagues are fellow human beings, doing our best under extraordinarily difficult conditions to expose those forces who want to compromise our democracy and want to spread hate. If you appreciate my work — or the work of other journalists — please show your gratitude by publicly defending those of us who are engaged in this effort. Every now and then, make sure that the journalists in your communities know that they are appreciated. And if you have legitimate questions about our reporting, if you think I got something wrong, just ask. (Asking in kindness goes a long way.) In return, I will continue to try to be transparent with you about what I am doing and why— as we travel down this sometimes-rocky road together. –––––––––––––––––––––– Do you have information that would help me with my investigation?

As science continues its evolution, discoveries and technologies can act like a master key that open doors leading to novel advancements. Artificial intelligence is one such key, making innovations possible by solving complex problems, automating tasks and enabling research that would have been impossible, or very time-consuming, without it. But do we want to do research on all topics, and shall we try the AI master key on every door? To explore this question, let’s consider the use of AI by genomics experts as an example. In recent years, genomics experts have added unbelievable depth to what we know about the world and ourselves. For example, genetics researchers have revealed facts about when certain animals and plants were domesticated. In another example, researchers used DNA from 30,000-year-old permafrost to create fertile samples of a plant called narrow-leafed campion. Importantly, genetic engineering has facilitated extraordinary advances in the treatment of complicated conditions, such as sickle-cell anemia. Thanks to AI, we are witnessing a dramatic increase in the pace and scalability of genomic exploration. But given the risks and possible consequences of AI use in science, should we rush headlong into using AI in all kinds of projects? One relevant example is research on Neanderthals, our closest relatives, who lived about 40,000 years ago. Neanderthals have been studied for several years now through genetic investigation of their fossils and their DNA. Genetic engineering can potentially use ancient DNA and genome editing methods to re-create a Neanderthal or aspects of a Neanderthal’s genetics and physiology. To do this, scientists could start by figuring out the DNA sequence of a Neanderthal by comparing it with the DNA of modern humans, because they are closely related. Then, scientists could use the gene-editing tool known as CRISPR to swap out parts of human DNA with Neanderthal DNA. This process would require a lot of trial and error and might not succeed soon. But based on what we know about genetics, if something is possible, AI can help make it happen faster, cheaper and with less effort. Scientists are excited about these developments because they could facilitate new discoveries and open up many research opportunities in genetic research. With or without AI, research on Neanderthals will proceed. But the extraordinary power of AI could give the final push to these discoveries and facilitate this kind of resurrection. At that point, the scientific community must develop norms and guidelines about how to treat these resurrected beings with dispositions very similar to humans. We would need to carefully consider their rights and well-being almost in the same way as when humans are involved and not as research subjects or artifacts of scientific curiosity. These ethical issues are discussed in more detail in a new paper published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. A more holistic question to consider is: Should we prioritize the use of resource-intensive AI, researchers’ time and public funds to resurrect extinct beings? Or should we invest these resources into conserving species that are critically endangered today to prevent biodiversity from more degradation?NoneWith the year coming to an end, Google has revealed the search trends for every country.
