POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE. NBC News reporter Katy Tur pens piece on her “crazy year” covering Donald Trump: “… in about three months, America will go to the polls and I can’t tell you if Trump is going to win or lose.

BIG GAY PROBLEM. 8 years after failing to mention anything about the historic nature of Matthew Mitchum’s gold medal in diving, NBC Sports continues to be squeamish about mentioning anything have to do with the personal lives of openly gay Olympians: “The network failed to identify Dustin Lance Black in the audience of the men’s synchro diving finals as bronze-medalist Tom Daley’s fiancé. Not boyfriend, not long-time friend… fiancé. And an Oscar-winning fiancé at that (read: public interest). They are, arguably, the “it” couple of the gay community, yet NBC didn’t mention a word.”
LYING CHRIS. Former aide to New Jersey Governor Chris Christie says Christie “flat out lied” about the Bridge-gate scandal: “Yes. But he lied. And if emails are found with the subpoena or … emails are uncovered in discovery if it comes to that it could be bad.”
