...nation "has been subordinated to a political party." Tutu noted, however, that "even the most powerful parties bite the dust at some point." The ANC will always claim an honored place in the history of South Africa, and of its people's fight for freedom.

It's one thing to convey your erudition by dissecting a dark plot in The Sopranos, but what does it reveal to cop to a fascination with Donald Trump's boardroom or worse, Ryan and Tristan's love affair on The Bachelorette? For closet reality TV fans, it may finally be safe to come out of the closet. On Sunday, Sept. 21, for the first time the Emmys will award a statue to the best host of a reality TV show. To top that off, the event itself will be hosted...
