About this episode
Federal Judge Blocks Trumps Order to Defund NPR and PBS, Upholding First Amendment Rights
A federal judge has struck down President Trumps executive order to cut all funding for NPR and PBS, deeming it unconstitutional under the First Amendment. The ruling came in response to lawsuits from NPR, PBS, and their stations, permanently blocking federal agencies from enforcing the order. The judge argued that the order amounted to viewpoint discrimination and retaliation against their reporting. The White House plans to appeal the decision, insisting Congress already moved to defund them. NPR and PBS continue to receive support from donations and sponsorships, as the battle heads to appeals court.

It's April 1st. Welcome to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Director Craig Gillespie just dropped some intriguing details on the Supergirl movie, focusing on what Krypton looks like in the new DC Universe. He's diving deep into Karazor L's home planet, especially her birth city Argo, and how his destruction shaped her. Millie Alcock stars as the young hero grappling with those roots. In a fresh interview, Gillespie explained that Krypton's end wasn't a quick catastrophe, like in past versions. It unfolded slowly, pulling from the Superman films of the 1970s and early 1980s for inspiration. This backstory ties directly into Karaz family history and her self-destructive tendencies when we first meet her. Fans have only seen hints of Krypton so far, like in Supergirl promos and the message from Clark Kent's parents in this year's Superman flick. Clark glimpses sparked curiosity about Kryptonian culture, and now Gillespie's take promises to fill in the gaps on daily life there.
He highlighted Karaz dad Zor, L as a top scientist in academia, surrounded by an opulent world full of high status connections, scriptwriter, Anna Nogera, crafted the story, with a cast including Matthias Schoenert as cream of the Yellow Hills, David Crumholt as Zor L. Jason, Kamoa as Lobo, and Eve Ridley as Ruthie Mary No. All this Krypton lower sets up Karaz journey in a big way, and Gillespie says viewers will feel satisfied with how it drives the plot forward. The film hits US theaters, June 26th, building serious hype for the DCU's next chapter.
