preempt regularly scheduled programming to air the first hearing tonight, Schiff promises that new details about the Capitol incident will be made public.“You will certainly learn a great many things that are not in the public arena already,” the Congressman told Colbert. The challenge, as Schiff sees it, is that the public already knows a great deal about the Jan. 6 attacks.
Compounding matters is how accustomed he feels the American public has become to incidents, comments, and strategies that seemingly run counter to standard governmental practice. “What is so challenging, and has been since the beginning of this Trumpist era, is that the public is exposed to one shock after another,” he said. “One incredible and tragic breakdown of our democratic system after another.
And you get numb with it. I think the challenge for our committee is to break through that. To grab people by the lapels and say, ‘We came close to losing our democracy.’”Thursday’s prime-time hearing will be followed by several subsequent hearings across daytime and prime-time throughout June.
In addition to the three broadcast networks, Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN are also planning special coverage, though it is unclear if live prime-time focus will be given for the duration of the hearings. In an unprecedented move, former ABC News president James Goldston is advising the House committee on how to best dramatize the prime-time hearings as an opportunity to maximize its public impact. The former head of “Good Morning America” and “Nightline” will utilize previously unseen footage of the attack, pre-produced packages, live interviews, and more to lay out the findings of the committee’s 11-month investigation.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorThe BET Awards are officially a celebration of “Black excellence,” and Sunday night’s show featured blockbuster performances from Lizzo, Mariah Carey, Latto, Jack Harlow (who was joined by Brandy and Lil Wayne) and an elaborate tribute to Lifetime Achievement honoree Sean “Diddy” Combs that included an unannounced in-person speech from Kanye West.But for the second time in three years, the show coincided with galvanizing events in the United States: In 2020, it was George Floyd’s murder at the hands of Minneapolis police and the ensuing the Black Lives Matter protests, and this year it was the Supreme Court’s polarizing overturn of Roe v. Wade and the impending loss of a woman’s right to choose in many states in the country.
John Hopewell Chief International CorrespondentNetflix and ‘Spencer’ director Pablo Larraín have gone into production on “El Conde,” a black comedy picturing bloody Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet as a 250-year-old vampire.Larraín will share screenwriting credits with Guillermo Calderón, Chile’s foremost playwright and Larraín’s writing partner on “Neruda” and Berlin Grand Jury Prize winner “The Club,” the movie which persuaded Natalie Portman to play the lead in the Larraín-directed “Jackie.”“El Conde” is produced by Juan de Dios Larraín at Fabula, the Larraín brothers’ Chile-based film-TV production house whose credits include “Spencer” and “Jackie,” all Larrain’s Chilean movies, and Sebastian Lelio’s 2018 Academy Award winning “A Fantastic Woman.” Moving from fest-winning straight-arrow arthouse fare such as “Tony Manero” to movies with a wider audience appeal from 2012 Cannes Directors Fortnight winner “No,” starring Gael García Bernal and then into English-language titles from “Jackie,” Pablo Larrain has established himself in the vanguard of Latin American cinema.Whatever the setting, his movies combine an acute sense of character and big ideas, on power dyanamics, the fate of women in traditional worlds, the lure and hell of fame and also the multiple hostages left to fortune by Augusto Pinochet’s far right and bloody dictatorship.In a review of “Jackie” Variety’s Guy Lodge hailed Larraín as “the most daring and prodigious political filmmaker of his generation,”“El Conde” looks to drive deeper into some of the themes, mixing character analysis, drama and comedy and a trenchant analysis of the makings of the modern world – not only in Chile but in global terms.The historical black comedy revolves around Augusto
