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."

'KCR Is God, Surrounded By Some Devils': K Kavitha On Letter Leak

The internal differences within the Bharat Rashtra Samithi came to the fore on Friday with party MLC K Kavitha taking exception to the letter she wrote to her father and party president K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR) getting leaked.

She also said some conspiracies are being hatched in the party. KCR is like a god, but is surrounded by some devils, she claimed.

Speaking to reporters at the RGI airport here on Friday evening, after returning from the US, she wondered how an internal letter became public.

"Two weeks ago, I had written a letter to KCR ji. I had expressed my opinions to him earlier through letters. I had recently said that conspiracies are being hatched. The letter written by me internally to KCR ji became public. All of us in the party and the people of Telangana have to think about what is happening," she said.

She further said she had only expressed in her letter, after touring half of Telangana, what people are thinking and that she does not have any personal agenda.

Asked who is behind the conspiracy that she talked about, Ms Kavitha said: "KCR ji is a god. But, there are some devils around him. A lot of damage is being caused because of them. I am KCR's daughter. If the letter written by me internally became public, there should be a debate about the fate of others in the party," she said.

She regularly gives such feedback to the party supremo, Ms Kavitha added.

Referring to Congress and BJP leaders' comments on the BRS after the letter was leaked, Ms Kavitha asserted that Mr Rao is her leader and the party would flourish for long if the "small defects" are corrected and the leaders who covertly help other parties are removed, she said.

Alleging that both Congress and BJP have failed Telangana, she said KCR's leadership is the alternative.

The handwritten "feedback" letter written by Kavitha to her father KCR, highlighting both the negative and positive aspects of the party's recent public meeting at Warangal, has sparked discussions in Telangana's political circles.

"As you ( KCR) spoke for just two minutes, some people began speculating that there will be a tie-up with the BJP in future. I even felt that you should have spoken strongly (against the BJP). It might be because I suffered (because of the BJP). But you should have targeted the BJP some more, daddy," Kavitha said in the letter, written in Telugu and English.

The BRS celebrated its silver jubilee in Warangal on April 27.

Ms Kavitha cited Mr Rao's silence in the meeting on key issues such as 42 per cent reservation for backward classes, Scheduled Caste categorisation, Waqf Amendment Act, and omission of Urdu from his address as reasons for the negative feedback.

She said the Congress government has lost its support at the grassroots level, and some BRS cadres now view the BJP as a viable alternative.

She added that a strong signal was sent to party workers when the BRS chose not to contest the recent MLC elections, suggesting it might align with the BJP.

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 ...
