New York Eater's Chief Critic Isn't Ready To Eat Out. Here's Why

Copyright 2020 NPR. To see more, visit LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST: Ryan Sutton is chief food critic for New York Eater, and he says he's not going to dine out - inside at tables while apart from each other, outside in the open air, anywhere under any circumstance at all. And he says you shouldn't either. Ryan Sutton joins us now from Long Island, N.Y. Welcome to the program. RYAN SUTTON: Thanks for having me, Lulu. GARCIA-NAVARRO: So tell us why you're taking this position to stick with takeout exclusively. You know, servers, bussers, overnight cleaning services - isn't it good to give the restaurants that employ them the business they need to stay afloat so that these people have jobs and income for their households? SUTTON: There's no denying that we're all in a very difficult situation right now. However, given that we have over, you know, 50,000 new cases, often every day, throughout the country, just from an individual moral standpoint, I simply can't bring myself to eat at a

Why Reopening Isn't Enough To Save The Economy

Editor's note: This is an excerpt of Planet Money 's newsletter. You can sign up here . Geoff Caddick / AFP via Getty Images Brooklyn Heights sits across the East River from Lower Manhattan. It's filled with multimillion-dollar brownstones and — usually — Range Rovers, Teslas and BMWs. These days it's easy to find parking. The brownstones are mostly dark at night. The place is a ghost town. And the neighborhood's sushi restaurants, Pilates studios, bistros and wine bars are either closed or mostly empty. It's a microcosm for what has been the driver of the pandemic recession: Rich people have stopped going out, destroying millions of jobs. That's one of the key insights of a blockbuster study that was dropped late last week by a gang of economists led by Harvard University's Raj Chetty. If you don't know who Chetty is, he's sort of like the Michael Jordan of policy wonks. He's a star economist. He and his colleagues assemble and crunch massive data sets and deliver insights that

Why are comments not allowed on certain news stories?

In some situations, we disable commenting on stories. We do so by following certain criteria, such as if the comments may cause harm, or if there is a risk that they may break the law.

For example, we don't enable comments on stories about kidnapping, as we wouldn't want to inadvertently publish something that would assist the abductors.

We disable comments on stories concerning court cases that involve a publication ban, and on stories related to sexual assault, in order to protect the identity of the victim.

And often we don't allow comments on stories related to the death of individuals as we don't want to publish anything that may be hurtful for the family.

The decision to disable comments on a story is made after discussion among the news editorial team at CBC.ca.

BIDEN V. TRUMP II: WHO IS GENERAL JOHN KELLY & WHY DOES HE CONDEMN TRUMP?


Donald Trump's longest serving and hand-picked Chief of Staff, Four Star Marine General John Kelley, recently confirmed that Trump called those serving in the military "suckers" and those making the ultimate sacrifice for our nation and our freedom "losers." These comments now confirmed through numerous sources prove Trump's unfitness for office. Some background:

During the June 27 debate Joe Biden stated directly to Trump's face:

I was recently . . . in France for D-Day, and I spoke . . .  about those heroes that died. I went to the . . . World War I cemetery he refused to go to. He was standing with his four-star general, and he told him – he said, I don’t want to go in there because they’re a bunch of losers and suckers. My son was not a loser. He was not a sucker. You’re the sucker. You’re the loser.

Donald Trump offered only lies in response--lies so brazen that his story borders on incoherent. First, Trump claimed it was a "made-up" quote and demanded that Biden apologize. But then he claimed he fired the general who confirmed the quote. In fact, Kelly stepped down amidst praise from Trump that he was a great guy and "very special." Apparently, Trump knows the quote was not made up.

In fact, Trump's own hand-picked Chief of Staff and four star Marine General John Kelly now confirms that the quote is accurate and that Donald Trump called our combat veterans "suckers" and our war dead "losers." (See above video). These quotes originally surfaced in an Atlantic. article in 2020. Trump promptly denied the statements. Kelly offers clear proof of more Trump lies.

We know Trump ran away from military service in Viet Nam claiming he suffered from bone spurs, proving his cowardice and his true attitude about military service--its for "suckers" and "losers."  Trump thinks he deserves immunity from serving his nation.

Trump's debate lies and disrespect for those willing to fight for our freedom makes him unfit for office and the GOP needs to find a new nominee for President.
