Netflix Sees Spike In Subscription Cancellations: Here's Why

Netflix is experiencing a surge in subscription cancellations over its animated series Dead End: Paranormal Park and controversial remarks by the show's creator, Hamish Steele. Last month, Steele sparked outrage when he commented on the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, calling him a "Nazi." The remarks did not sit well with many viewers, prompting some to cancel their subscriptions to the OTT giant as a mark of protest. When UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer paid tribute to Kirk in his social media post, Steele wrote, "Why the f**k are you even commenting on this, d***k***d? You sympathy for any of the families being slaughtered by your weapons but a random Nazi gets shot and its public statement. You're such a ducking shit evil."

"What Happened Between Gambhir And Kohli...": Kapil On 'Painful' IPL Spat

The on-field verbal spat behind Royal Challengers Bangalore star Virat Kohli and Lucknow Super Giants mentor Gautam Gambhir during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 resulted in a massive controversy. Both of them were handed hefty fines for their conduct and the entire incident attracted criticism from several ex-cricketers. Legendary Indian cricket team skipper Kapil Dev opened up about his feelings regarding the spat and said that the Board for Cricket Control in India (BCCI) needs to “groom players to be good citizens” off the field. 

“They (BCCI) have to groom players to be good citizens also. What happened between Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli in the IPL, it was painful for me," Kapil said in an interview with The Week.

“My two most important people―Virat Kohli, one of the top batters in the world; Gambhir is now member of Parliament―how can they behave in such a manner? But sportsmen do lose their mind, from Pele to Don Bradman to all people," the former India skipper added.

Meanwhile, former India fast bowler Venkatesh Prasad launched a scathing criticism of Team India after they were beaten by West Indies in the second ODI encounter in Barbados. India went into the match without Rohit Sharma and Kohli but the other batters were unable to make up for their absence.

“Despite the money and power, we have become used to celebrating mediocrity and are far from how champion sides are. Every team plays to win and so does India but their approach and attitude is also a factor for underperformance over a period of time,” he tweeted.

It's been long since the IPL 2023 season concluded but the incident still remains fresh in the minds of fans. Though there have been a few incidents of altercations between two players in the league, nothing of that magnitude arguably ever took place.

US Reopens Lake Michigan Airspace After Closure Over "National Defense"

US officials restricted the airspace over Lake Michigan on Sunday citing a potential new threat to national security but soon reopened the skies, as the United States and Canada respond to multiple air intrusions. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced "temporary flight restrictions" over one of the Great Lakes along the US-Canada border, designating it as "national defense airspace," one day after a similar closure over Montana led to the scrambling of US fighter jets. The Montana closure was ordered over a "radar anomaly," but no object was discovered. Similarly, the Lake Michigan restrictions were lifted shortly after they were announced, apparently with no threat detected. "The FAA briefly closed some airspace over Lake Michigan to support Department of Defense activities. The airspace has been reopened," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Sunday's action over Lake Michigan marked the latest move to address a series ...
