Grey’s Anatomy” & “Scandal” mastermind Shonda Rhimes has landed the cover of The Hollywood Reporter’s newest issue. In the cover story, Shonda called the NY Times analysis a reminder that although we’re living in the year 2014, there are still traces of "casual racial bias" and "odd misogyny”, specifically aimed at black people AND women. She said, "In this world in which we all feel we're so full of gender equality and we're a postracial [society] and Obama is president, it's a very good reminder to see the casual racial bias and odd misogyny from a woman written in a paper that we all think of as being so liberal." The ABC producer (and single mother of three) also talked about a time she was tapped to appear at an event and the draft announcement called her, "the most powerful black female showrunner in Hollywood." She crossed out "female" and "black" and sent it back. Gender and race “pisses” her off and here’s why, “They wouldn't say that someone is 'the most powerful white male showrunner in Hollywood. I find race and gender to be terribly important; they're terribly important to who I am. But there's something about the need for everybody else to spend time talking about it … that pisses me off."

President Barack Obama has landed the cover of Rolling Stone. In the issue, Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman comes to the commander-in-chief's defense, explaining why he is a historic success. As President Obama finishes off the final two years of his second term of office, there has been talk surrounding his low approval ratings amongst Americans, despite all of his accomplishments during his stay in the White House. This week, President O’s economic ratings have hit the lowest level of his tenure, reducing to only 24% of Americans who are confident with Obama’s economic record, according to a CNBC survey. In the article, Paul praises our president as “one of the most consequential and, yes, successful presidents in American history” and he broke down the bashing the president endures. he writes Obama faces trash talk left, right and center – literally – and doesn't deserve it. Despite bitter opposition, despite having come close to self-inflicted disaster, Obama has emerged as one of the most consequential and, yes, successful presidents in American history. His health reform is imperfect but still a huge step forward – and it's working better than anyone expected. Financial reform fell far short of what should have happened, but it's much more effective than you'd think. Economic management has been half-crippled by Republican obstruction, but has nonetheless been much better than in other advanced countries. And environmental policy is starting to look like it could be a major legacy. I'll go through those achievements shortly. First, however, let's take a moment to talk about the current wave of Obama-bashing. All Obama-bashing can be divided into three types. One, a constant of his time in office, is the onslaught from the right, which has never stopped portraying him as an Islamic atheist Marxist Kenyan. Nothing has changed on that front, and nothing will. There's a different story on the left, where you now find a significant number of critics decrying Obama as, to quote Cornell West, someone who ''posed as a progressive and turned out to be counterfeit.'' They're outraged that Wall Street hasn't been punished, that income inequality remains so high, that ''neoliberal'' economic policies are still in place. All of this seems to rest on the belief that if only Obama had put his eloquence behind a radical economic agenda, he could somehow have gotten that agenda past all the political barriers that have con- strained even his much more modest efforts. It's hard to take such claims seriously. Finally, there's the constant belittling of Obama from mainstream pundits and talking heads. Turn on cable news (although I wouldn't advise it) and you'll hear endless talk about a rudderless, stalled administration, maybe even about a failed presidency. Such talk is often buttressed by polls showing that Obama does, indeed, have an approval rating that is very low by historical standards. But this bashing is misguided even in its own terms – and in any case, it's focused on the wrong thing. Paul then explains how these low approval ratings don’t necessarily reflect all of the obstacles he overcame and improvements he had for the American people. Yes, Obama has a low approval rating compared with earlier presidents. But there are a number of reasons to believe that presidential approval doesn't mean the same thing that it used to: There is much more party-sorting (in which Republicans never, ever have a good word for a Democratic president, and vice versa), the public is negative on politicians in general, and so on. Obviously the midterm election hasn't happened yet, but in a year when Republicans have a huge structural advantage – Democrats are defending a disproportionate number of Senate seats in deep-red states – most analyses suggest that control of the Senate is in doubt, with Democrats doing considerably better than they were supposed to. This isn't what you'd expect to see if a failing president were dragging his party down. More important, however, polls – or even elections – are not the measure of a president. High office shouldn't be about putting points on the electoral scoreboard, it should be about changing the country for the better. Has Obama done that? Do his achievements look likely to endure? The answer to both questions is yes. Do you agree or disagree? Photo: Rolling Stone

Patrick Nnaemeka Okorie during an interview on a Ghanaian radio station, Star 103.5FM disclosed that he has once slept on the streets of Ghana just to survive. He also said he was once a student of a Ghanaian university but when he couldn’t afford to pay his school fees, he opted out. The musician, who is the first child of his family, said he had to find a way to get out of poverty just to save his family and today he is glad he made it. “I had to move from Cape Coast to Accra. I was sleeping on the streets of Osu just to make it. We must make am now…survival at all cost.

Wow! But why do people like spreading and celebrating bad news. A lot of people have been calling in to tell me that Linda Ikeji's blog has been deleted and you need to see how excited they are. I know she is somewhere now starting a new blog. You see things like this aren’t hard, when you love something and know how to do it, it’s almost like eba, E.B.A. it’s very simple to you. I am not saying Linda is right for allegedly not giving credits for some of the works on her blog, but then as young people and Nigerians we should learn to forgive ourselves. See her tweets after the cut.----ladun liadi I am praying
