http://youtu.be/q3NreT98_8I Brian Szasz, the stepson of billionaire Hamish Harding who is aboard the missing Titanic-bound submersible, spoke out about his family’s “nightmare” ordeal and deleted his Twitter account after facing backlash for his tone-deaf posts amid the frantic search for the missing vessel. Szasz revealed in a video posted to Instagram Wednesday he hasn’t slept in days since Harding’s vehicle, which carried four other crew members, vanished in the North Atlantic Ocean. “This whole situation is a f–king nightmare,” Szasz said. “Especially what Hamish is going through down there. It is just f—king god awful. Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/06/22/hamish-hardings-stepson-brian-szasz-speaks-out-on-nightmare-situation/ #hamishharding #titanic #submarine The New Yo...

http://youtu.be/Ep5Qo9eu8CI Debris was discovered by a remotely-operated vehicle searching the site of the Titanic’s wreckage for the missing OceanGate submersible, the US Coast Guard said Thursday. The update was shared in a tweet from the First Coast Guard District, which wrote, “A debris field was discovered within the search area by an ROV near the Titanic.” “Experts within the unified command are evaluating the information,” the Coast Guard added.

http://youtu.be/CGXuC0MM9mI NewsNation aired an “oxygen remaining” countdown clock alongside its coverage of the missing Titan submersible — and viewers weren’t happy about the “grim” choice. The grave graphic appeared throughout the ratings-challenged news channel’s Wednesday coverage, including during the 10 p.m. show hosted by Ashleigh Banfield. As the anchor discussed a theory that a sea creature could’ve attacked the sub during its descent to the shipwrecked Titanic, the countdown clock showed oxygen reserves ticked backwards from six hours.

http://youtu.be/kMFXbNZ9c2Y The host of Discovery Channel adventure show “Expedition Unknown” took a diving trip in the same Titanic-bound sub that vanished over the weekend — but refused a second voyage because of safety issues that haven’t yet “been made public.” Veteran explorer Josh Gates, 45, said Wednesday the missing OceanGate submersible, the Titan, “did not perform well” while he was aboard, so he turned down a chance to film the legendary shipwreck site. “I had the unique opportunity to dive in the @Oceangate #Titan sub with Stockton at the helm in preparation for its maiden mission to Titanic,” Gates tweeted, referencing OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush.

http://youtu.be/1SamOp-FT5I Speculation is growing that Warner Bros. Discovery will sell CNN in the coming year — and the struggling cable network’s former CEO Jeff Zucker has emerged as a possible suitor, sources told The Post. The 58-year-old Zucker is among the contenders to buy the ratings-challenged network, insiders say — despite the fact that he was ousted from the company more than a year and a half ago over his undisclosed relationship with former CNN flack Allison Gollust. Sources say Zucker sees a big opportunity at CNN ahead of the 2024 presidential election after ex-CEO Chris Licht’s strategy to revamp the network’s programming to appeal to a more centrist audience flopped, sending ratings and ad revenue tumbling.

http://youtu.be/ty2djSHZX5w The five people trapped inside the Titanic-bound tourist sub could find their bodies turned into “mummies” due to frigid underwater temperatures and the lack of oxygen in the pressurized vessel, experts said. Nicholas Passalacqua, a director of forensic anthropology at Western Carolina University, surmised that if the five passengers died aboard the Titan, their bodies would be oddly preserved inside the submersible. “Generally in an environment without oxygen, remains will not decompose much because the micro and macro organisms that would work to consume and decompose the tissues will be unable to survive,” Passalacqua told Insider.

http://youtu.be/rEgSkRxqEPk The debris discovered by a remotely operated vehicle searching the site of the Titanic’s wreckage for the lost OceanGate submersible was confirmed to be that of the missing vessel. US Coast Guard officials said five major pieces of debris were found 1,600 feet from the shipwreck, with the debris being “consistent with the catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber” belonging to the Titan sub. Authorities said Titan imploded under the pressure of the Atlantic, killing all five passengers aboard.

http://youtu.be/DqUcMs3n9g8 “Titanic” director and submersible pioneer James Cameron has ripped the makers of the doomed Titan sub for not getting it certified — fearing the death of its CEO and four tourists could now halt further deep-sea exploration. Cameron — who has made 33 trips of his own to the Titanic wreckage — accused OceanGate of destroying 63 years of similar pioneering by eschewing obvious safety protocols and warnings from experts. “One of the saddest aspects of this is how preventable it really was,” Cameron, 68, told the BBC, saying he was “struck by the similarity of the Titanic disaster itself.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/06/23/james-cameron-blames-titan-sub-for-not-getting-certified/ #jamescameron #titanic #oceangate The New York Post is your source fo...

http://youtu.be/oy-cwo434fk Could Andy Cohen have another hosting gig under his belt soon? The 55-year-old “What What Happens Live” emcee is gunning to host “Wheel of Fortune” following longtime star Pat Sajak’s recent retirement announcement. “Dream, dream job. I would love to,” Cohen told Us Weekly about tossing his hat in the ring to replace Sajak, 76. “That would be incredible,” the Bravo celebrity gushed. He went on: “Not only is a game show the thing that I haven’t done yet, but that is the premiere game show. It’s really fun.” Read more at https://nypost.com/2023/06/23/andy-cohen-it-would-be-my-dream-job-to-host-wheel-of-fortune/ #andycohen #wheeloffortune #patsajak The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, op...

http://youtu.be/XLZaBh46eLI Dermot Mulroney made an appearance on “The View” to promote his new Disney+ Marvel series — but he made a dramatic exit and walked off the set during the live taping. During Friday’s episode of the daytime talk show, Mulroney, 59, staged a walk-off to support the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike. “Since I have such respect for ‘The View,’ a news program with a heart, it was there that I felt comfortable enough to draw attention to the ongoing WGA strike for fair wages and working hours, as I find it incredibly important to continue to support the union,” Mulroney said in a statement to Variety.

http://youtu.be/9_4e-eEuF1I Spotify executives were likely “horrified” by comments Prince Harry made to Oprah Winfrey after he signed a multimillion dollar deal with the company, one royal expert has asserted. Harry, 39, and his wife Meghan Markle, 41, inked an agreement with the audio giant back in December 2020, estimated to be worth a whopping $20 million. But just four months later, the royal raised eyebrows with flip remarks about the deal during his sensational sit-down with Winfrey.

http://youtu.be/O4dGmJobf8Q The Titanic-bound tourist submarine that disappeared in the waters of Newfoundland on Sunday morning has only 96 hours of life support left, US Coast Guard officials said as the search continued past its first day. The Coast Guard said on Monday that the submarine’s operator, OceanGate Expeditions, informed them that the missing vessel can sustain its five occupants for about four days before it runs out of oxygen. “We’re doing everything we can do to locate the submersible and rescue those on board,” Rear Admiral John Mauger told reporters.

http://youtu.be/Yr2lmDOSdx8 The man busted for the hit-and-run crash that killed five young women getting ready for a wedding in Minnesota is the son of a fiery Black Lives Matter protest leader-turned-politician — who was ultimately booted by the Democrats over his shocking history of domestic violence arrests. Derrick Thompson, 27 — the son of ex-state rep. John Thompson — was busted on suspicion of murder Monday over the horrifying caught-on-camera crash that killed Sabiriin Ali, 17, Sahra Gesaade, 20, Salma Abdikadir, 20, Sagal Hersi, 19, and Siham Adam, 19. He already has a long history of convictions — including a felony from an earlier hit-and-run crash in California in 2018 that left a woman in a coma for several weeks, according to reports from the time.

http://youtu.be/K7RwftWrAeo The CEO on the missing Titan sub once bragged that his invention “shouldn’t take a lot of skill” to reach Titanic depths, using just an elevator-style button — and a videogame controller — but insisted that even if something goes haywire, “you’re still going to be safe.” OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush — one of the five people onboard the still-missing submersible — had invited CBS News on an earlier doomed mission on Titan late last year. “This is not your grandfather’s submersible,” Rush, 61, quipped to at-times terrified correspondent David Pogue in a clip that has since gone viral.

http://youtu.be/kTgH8FSFRkE The Mexican government released video of customized “Franken-tanks” seized from drug cartels being destroyed. The narco tank vehicles have been modified with battering rams and steel plates welded onto regular pick up and semi trucks to make them extra-tough for the deadly drug runners’ nefarious activities. They could be seen getting torn up by a crane in government footage which went as far as blurring the identity of the crane operator to protect him from any repercussions.

http://youtu.be/D0Gs6JgSo8k An adviser for OceanGate Expeditions blamed government bureaucracy for allegedly slowing down the rescue effort for the missing Titanic tourist submarine — but authorities claimed the company waited eight hours before reporting the disappearance. Attorney David Concannon, who pulled out of Sunday’s dive at the last minute, told NewsNation that the equipment and crew needed to rescue the five missing passengers cannot be deployed until the Coast Guard authorizes the mission. “They are mobilized. They’re sitting on the tarmac, ready to go,” Concannon said of the crew who surveyed the Titanic last year. “This equipment has been on the tarmac for hours.

http://youtu.be/VSSSzKPz5_o Tourist submarine exploring Titanic wreckage disappears in Atlantic Ocean: Coast Guard A submarine on a pricey tourist expedition to the Titanic shipwreck in the Atlantic Ocean has vanished — and authorities are now searching for the missing passengers, which includes a famed explorer, authorities and family said. The Boston Coast Guard said a search began on Monday for the small sub, which takes tourists to view the famous shipwreck that sits about 12,500 feet at the bottom of the ocean off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada, the BBC reported. OceanGate Expeditions, a private company that provides tours for the site, confirmed that the missing submarine belonged to them, adding that crew members were on board the vessel.

Lunden Roberts, 32, the mother of Hunter’s long-unacknowledged 4-year-old daughter, agreed to her monthly child support payments being slashed by more than 75% — from $20,000 to less than $5,000. She also is understood to have dropped her legal bid to change the little girl’s surname to Biden, a request rejected by Hunter’s attorneys.

As crews race against the clock to locate and rescue the passengers of the submersible that vanished while visiting the Titanic wreck, the stepson of one of the missing didn’t let the unfolding ordeal keep him from one of his passions: rocking out with Blink 182. Brian Szasz — whose billionaire stepfather Hamish Harding is one of the five people who could be trapped in total darkness 12,000 feet down beneath the Atlantic Ocean with about 40 hours of oxygen left — shared Monday that he was attending a Blink 182 concert in California despite the ongoing situation.

McDonald’s says it’s “not in accordance” with its policies for employees to retaliate, but says there is more to the story. An employee at the franchise’s Wynyard store in Sydney’s Central Business District was caught on camera throwing a drink at an aggravated customer who then begins launching food back at workers in the early hours last Thursday morning.

Kathy Hochul’s administration is ramping up funding to healthcare facilities to boost medical staffing and care for New York’s transgender patients in a two-year pilot program — but critics slammed the gender-bending policy as “morally irresponsible.” The state Health Department recently awarded new contracts for “The Transgender Clinical Scholars Training Pilot Program” worth $500K to Mount Sinai Hospital.

http://youtu.be/wU0zKrbpLZ4 The last living survivor of the deepest successful sea rescue in history fears the worst for the five passengers aboard the small submersible that vanished while visiting the Titanic wreck over the weekend. Roger Mallinson, who in 1973 was rescued alongside his diving partner after spending 84 hours trapped 1,575 feet underwater off the coast of Ireland in a 6-foot-wide sub, said the fact that there has been zero communication from the missing vessel was an ominous sign. “That is horrendous. I can’t understand why they haven’t transmitted some signal of some sort,” Mallinson, 85, told Sky News.

http://youtu.be/yqBZNpD5K6Y A multimillionaire thrill-seeker who was supposed to be on the missing Titanic sub said he pulled out over fears it was “cutting too many corners” — and was run with a $40 videogame controller. Digital marketing tycoon Chris Brown, 61, told the Sun that he paid a $10,000 deposit for the trip along with his friend Hamish Harding, the 58-year-old British billionaire who is among the five still missing. But he grew alarmed when he saw how OceanGate’s 21-foot Titan submersible was made up of off-the-shelf components.

http://youtu.be/QA__7i99KU4 The OceanGate CEO who is trapped on a 22-foot submersible on an ill-fated voyage to see the Titanic wreck once explained how he didn’t hire “50-year-old white guys” with military experience to captain his vessels because they weren’t “inspirational.” Stockton Rush, 61, added that such expertise was unnecessary because “anybody can drive the sub” with a $30 video game controller. “When I started the business, one of the things you’ll find, there are other sub-operators out there, but they typically have, uh, gentlemen who are ex-military submariners, and they — you’ll see a whole bunch of 50-year-old white guys,” Rush told Teledyne Marine in a newly resurfaced undated Zoom interview.

http://youtu.be/AJQ9lVgT-5k Banging detected underwater in the hunt for the missing Titanic submersible is reminiscent of the failed search for MH370, the Malaysia Airlines flight that vanished from radar in 2014 and prompted a massive — but unsuccessful — effort, according to a leading oceanographer. Expert David Gallo said the “banging” noises being heard now as officials scour the vicinity of where the vessel lost radio contact Sunday are eerily similar to what oceanographers experienced when searching for the missing flight. “When I first heard about the [submersible-search] banging, I said, ‘Oh, no, here we go again,’ ” said Gallo, a senior adviser for strategic initiatives for RMS Titanitc Inc., to CNN.
