“Coyote vs. Acme” had a treacherous path to the big screen but it’s finally coming out.

The live-action/animated hybrid film à la “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” was shelved by Warner Bros. years ago despite being completely finished. CEO David Zaslav deemed the film would be better as a tax write-off than a theatrical release. Luckily, Ketchup Entertainment saved the courtroom comedy from disappearing into the vault, and the film is finally coming out.

Here’s where you can watch “Coyote vs. Acme” and when the film is expected to land on a streaming service.

Donald Trump took aim at New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman after she published a story claiming the president planned to skip a 9/11 memorial service at Ground Zero because he would be unable to give a speech.

“Maggot Hagerman, the Fake Reporter from The Failing New York Times, an unattractive person both inside and out, and who knows less about me than most reporters on the beat,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Friday afternoon, “(She’s a SCAMMER!), made up a story that on September 11th, I’m not going to the World Trade Center, in New York City, because they won’t let me make a speech, and I’m going to the Pentagon in D.C., because I’m a featured speaker.”

As the president continued, he blasted the report, which was also written by the Times’ Zolan Kanno-Youngs, Dana Rubinstein and Sally Goldenberg, as “more corrupt news” from the outlet.

“I’ve been to New York many times over the years, and no one ever speaks, it’s a ‘solemn ceremony,’” he said. “I never even thought of what Maggot made up, and besides, I would love not to speak, because I’m speaking all the time, and this is a day to remember the victims, and their beautiful family members.”

Trump then further attacked Haberman, who made headlines earlier this year for the book she co-authored with Jonathan Swan, “Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump,” which took a closer look at his unrestrained use of executive power in his second term. While Haberman’s reporting work has previously received widespread critical acclaim, including a Pulitzer Prize in 2018, Trump declared the journalist “a phony,” adding that “The New York Times knows it!”

“It will all be revealed in the lawsuit against them, and another lawsuit against the organization which gives out the now discredited Pulitzer Prize, because Maggie got one for her ‘reporting’ on THE RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA HOAX, which turned out to be a total CON JOB,” he added. “If she were ever forced to reveal her ‘sources,’ you will find out they either don’t exist, or didn’t say what she reported. She’s been falsely writing about me for years — She’s a stalker, and should be forced to turn over any and all money that she’s made through her fake reporting on me.”

In response to Trump’s criticism, a spokesperson told TheWrap, “The Times’s reporting is based on information from multiple people with knowledge of the discussions and planning around New York’s Sept. 11 ceremony. Our journalists sought comment from the White House communications team, who provided a statement that didn’t contradict what we had learned. The president chose to attack the story 24 hours later, singling out one of the four reporters who wrote it. We are confident in the accuracy of the reporting.”

CNN’s Jake Tapper, who appears with Haberman on his show “The Lead,” came to her defense saying she was “a great person, beautiful inside and out, an incredible mom and wife and colleague, and an amazing journalist.” He also added that the president’s comments were “disgusting and beneath the office.”

I’m not going to repost the filth the president wrote about Maggie Haberman, but suffice it to say she’s a great person, beautiful inside and out, an incredible mom and wife and colleague, and an amazing journalist. The president’s comments are disgusting and beneath the office.

This is not the first time the New York Times has been caught in Trump’s crosshairs, as the president sued the publication in September for $15 billion over unfavorable coverage of him ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

At the time, a Times spokesperson defended that the suit had “no merit,” noting, “It lacks any legitimate legal claims and instead is an attempt to stifle and discourage independent reporting.”

“The New York Times will not be deterred by intimidation tactics,” the statement continued. “We will continue to pursue the facts without fear or favor and stand up for journalists’ First Amendment right to ask questions on behalf of the American people.”

Not long after, Judge Steven Merryday, a George H.W. Bush appointee, struck down the lawsuit and said the nearly 90-page lawsuit was “not a protected platform to rage against an adversary.”

“A complaint is not a megaphone for public relations or a podium for a
passionate oration at a political rally or the functional equivalent of the Hyde Park
Speakers’ Corner,” the judge wrote at the time. The judge gave Trump’s attorneys 28 days to file an amended lawsuit, which was refiled in October of 2025.

In July, a federal judge deferred the New York Times’ motion to dismiss the defamation lawsuit and ruled Trump could file an amended complaint before the court considers the motion.

In addition to the Times, Trump has sued the Wall Street Journal, BBC, CBS News, ABC News and The Des Moines Register in the last two years. He’s also called out a number of female reporters since his second term began in January 2025, including Kristen Holmes, Kaitlan Collins, Kristen Welker, Catherine Lucey, Jessica Tarlov and Shannon Bream.

To hear Jerry Seinfeld tell it, he had a major hand in American Express’ creation of its Centurion Card (widely known as the Black Card) in 1999.

As the story goes, when Seinfeld was a spokesperson for American Express in the 1990s, a member of a commercial’s crew asked him if he owned an AmEx Black Card. Not knowing what it was but thinking it was about time he did, he called up the company’s president at the time, Harvey Golub, and said that he wanted one — but it turned out the coveted card for the ultra-rich and famous was just a rumor at that time.

When it was made a reality, Seinfeld said he was the first person to be gifted one.

The iconic comedian first broke out the story on his Netflix’s talk series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” with guest John Mulaney in 2018. But in a recent live audience interview with comic and actor Sebastian Maniscalco to launch his “We Got Company!” podcast, Seinfeld added another layer to the tale.

“I was on the set, we’re shooting a commercial, and one of the guys on the crew slides up next to me and whispers, ‘Do you have the Black Card?’ I go, ‘Well, what’s that?’ He goes, ‘There’s supposed to be a secret Black Card, and only the Sultan of Brunei and the president of American Express has it. And I thought maybe you had it too.’

“I go, ‘No, I don’t have it. But I’m gonna get it,’” Seinfeld continued. “And, the next morning, I called the president of American Express, Harvey Golub at the time, a nice Jewish guy from Brooklyn, and I said, ‘What about the Black Card?’ He says, ‘It’s just a rumor, it’s never existed.’ I go, ‘Let’s do it, let’s make the Black Card.’ He goes, ‘Let me look into it.’ And that’s how it happened.”

When Maniscalco asked Seinfeld to confirm that he was indeed the first person to be presented the American Express Black Card, the comic shared a coda:

“I had the first one, and I threw it out,” Seinfeld said, laughing. “I don’t know what happened to it. But he gave it to me in this nice padded thing, and it was the first one, and I don’t have it anymore.”

For those hoping to follow in Seinfeld’s footsteps and also become an AmEx Black Card holder, CNBC previously detailed in its own account that the main thing needed for such access is a “well-padded bank account.” Kim Kardashian and Oprah Winfrey, the outlet reported, are also said to be among the card’s elite holders.
