JFK Jr.’s Plane Crash Romanticized, Kennedy Family Dark Truths, & Hoda Kotb's Dateline Backlash
About this episode
Maureen Callahan critiques the romanticized portrayal of the Kennedy family in Ryan Murphy's series finale while discussing the true details of JFK Jr.'s plane crash and celebrity news.
Maureen Callahan takes apart Ryan Murphy’s “Love Story” series finale, calling out the inconsistencies in the storylines and the dishonest portrayal of the Kennedy family, including the treatment of Carolyn Bessette’s mother in the aftermath of the plane crash, the show’s attempt to soften the image of Caroline Kennedy, the depiction of the fatal flight itself, and romanticizing the moments leading up to the high-speed plummet into the Atlantic. She also breaks down the true details of the crash, including a firsthand account from the Chief Navy diver who led the recovery mission, which contradicts "Love Story" and reveals information that was withheld from the public. Then Maureen reacts to Angelina Jolie’s bizarre demeanor on the red carpet at Shanghai Fashion Week before reading Troublemaker feedback on Hoda Kotb's interview with Savannah Guthrie, calling out what they perceived as Hoda trying to force an emotional response to Savannah's agony, plus Craig Melvin's reported anger about Hoda getting assigned the exclusive over him.
