ll pay us 2.5 million. Well it could be that the Harris campaign didn't really care who was getting the money. They just knew it would cost 2.5 million to get Oprah.

So here's what I think. I think there was a weasel at the production company who knew that if they thought they were getting Oprah who may have said I'll do it for free, they may have just sort of left that impression that they were paying for Oprah when really the production company was just boosting their own bottom line. Some of which would go to Oprah but maybe it was more about the production company itself and their own objectives.

So here's what to look for. See if Oprah fires the head of her production company. It's probably somebody she's worked with forever so you wouldn't fire them even if they did this. But I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Oprah was not totally filled in on what the production company asked for or what they paid them or what they said. Maybe because she just wouldn't be interested. Her part was do you want to show up? Do you want to support Harris? Yes. That's all she needed to know and the production company handled the rest.

So if I'm wrong about all that and by the way what I'm describing would be sort of a normal way the world works. It wouldn't be an abnormal way. The most normal way it would work is the production company would say oh we've got a live one here. I think we can take them for 2.5 million and it'll only cost us a million to do the expenses. Otherwise Stephen A. Smith is right and Oprah has some explaining to do. But I'm still going to give her the benefit of the doubt that there's somebody else in this operation that maybe has some explaining to do.

Meanwhile the New York Times says OpenAI, who they're suing for using the New York Times content to train their AI. And the New York Times says you can't do that. That's our intellectual property. You can't train your AI on it and then suddenly it has all the learnings of the New York Times. So part of the lawsuit required some files to be turned over by OpenAI to the New York Times. And you'll never guess what happened. So the case relies on some files and OpenAI had the files. They were asked for these files through a legal process. Can you take a wild guess what happened to the files? Anybody have any of you been alive for the last five years? What do you think happened to the files? There was a glitch. Oh damn it. We sure meant to give you these files but there's some kind of glitch. They
