Jon Burlingame Three months from now, the Weeknd might just have an Emmy to place alongside his four Grammys and his Oscar nomination.

Voting began yesterday in the seven music categories.

Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer The California Legislature this week agreed to a significant change in the state’s film and TV tax credit, and one company in particular appears poised to benefit: Netflix. The state issues $330 million in tax credits every year to keep production jobs in California. The credits can be used to offset corporate income tax and sales tax. But some companies either have no California tax liability, or not enough to make full use of the credits. Gov. Gavin Newsom agreed this year to help those companies out by making the credit “refundable,” so that those companies can get cash back. The Legislature released details of a budget deal on Monday, which indicated that it had approved Newsom’s refundability proposal.

It was contentious yet cordial. Both parties were assertive but didn’t shout (well, maybe a little). Yes, there was some talking over each other as California Gov. Gavin Newsom sat down with Sean Hannity for an interview on Fox News’ Hannity, but it was almost a respite from the daily yelling heads on cable news.

Gavin Newsom didn’t back down from Sean Hannity’s fiery questioning about the homeless crisis in California – including its relative size compared with de facto rival Florida – saying “we own” the numbers and blaming the cost of housing and “localism.”“The state has not made progress in the last two decades as it relates to homeless,” the California governor said flatly at the top of an excerpt provided by Fox News, which you can watch below. The entire interview, Newsom’s first with the conservative cable news network in over a decade, was scheduled to air Monday night at 9 p.m.

California Governor Gavin Newsom will sit down for an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, on the heels of Newsom’s proposal for a 28th Amendment to the Constitution to address gun safety.

Naman Ramachandran The first trailer has been unveiled for Cannes, Emmy and Peabody-winning director Marc Levin’s documentary “It’s Basic,” which will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Festival. The film examines several pilot programs launched in the U.S. that test the effects of giving everyday people an extra $500 to $1,000 monthly, with no strings attached. It aims to present an unbiased account of the benefits, criticisms, and outcomes of providing unconditional money to people in need, and examines whether Basic Income pilot programs eradicate child poverty and level the racial playing field through community-centric solutions. The documentary features commentary by Michael Tubbs, the founder of Mayors for Guaranteed Income. At 26, Tubbs became mayor of Stockton, California. Under his stewardship, the city saw a 40% drop in homicides in 2018 and 2019, led the state in the decline of officer-involved shootings in 2019, was named the second most financially healthy city in California and was featured in Levin’s HBO documentary, “Stockton on My Mind.”
