Judge Dismisses Donald Trump's Lawsuit Against Bob Woodward, Simon & Schuster And Paramount Global
A federal judge tossed out Donald Trump's lawsuit against Bob Woodward, Simon & Schuster and Paramount Global over the legendary investigative journalist's use of his recordings of interviews with the president for an audiobook. In his 2023 lawsuit, Trump had claimed that he had a copyright and contract interest in the audio recordings, interviews which were initially used in Woodward's book Rage, a bombshell that was published in 2020. The audiobook, The Trump Tapes, was released in 2022.

Trump had claimed that even though he played no role in coming up with the questions, he had a copyright interest in the responses, the judge noted. The judge wrote that 'The Supreme Court has instructed, under the Copyright Act, 'the author is the party who actually creates the work, that is, the person who translates an idea into a fixed, tangible expression entitled to copyright protection.'' Trump had cited a Feb. 28, 2023 copyright registration he obtained, where he was designated as the joint author with Woodward. But the judge wrote that 'while copyright registration may constitute prema facie evidence of ownership, where there are conflicting and adverse copyright registrations, the Copyright Office does not resolve the competing claims, and courts are called upon to make 'an independent determination of copyright ownership.' Woodward and Simon & Schuster had a copyright registration from Feb. 23, 2023. The judge will allow Trump to amend his complaint, with a deadline of Aug. 18. But he wrote that he found it 'unlikely' that Trump would be able to plead a 'plausible' copyright interest in The Trump Tapes. Paramount Global sold Simon & Schuster to KKR in 2023, but the company remained a defendant in the case. Trump went on to sue Paramount Global shortly before the 2024 election, over the way that CBS News' 60 Minutes edited an interview with Kamala Harris. Paramount Global reached a $16 million settlement with Trump earlier this month, even though its attorneys had previously called the president's lawsuit without merit. The company is seeking Trump administration approval of its merger with Skydance.

Wyndham Clark wanted Oakmont ban to stay private, happy to have path forward after U.S. Open locker room incident
Wyndham Clark opened up again about the U.S. Open locker room incident on Sunday, something that's dragged along throughout the golf world even now as the British Open wrapped up a month later. Clark was suspended from Oakmont Country Club outside of Pittsburgh last week after he smashed a locker during the major championship there last month. He missed the cut at the U.S. Open after climbing to 8-over at the midway point, and that led to an outburst in the locker room. Clark apologized for the incident the next week, and called it a 'mistake in a moment of rage.' But this week, Oakmont suspended Clark from the course until he meets certain requirements, like paying for damage, making a charitable contribution and attending 'counseling and/or anger management sessions.' That was laid out to Clark and course members in a letter from club president John Lynch. 'Obviously I feel terrible with what happened. I'm doing anything I can to try to remedy the situation,' Clark said after his final round at the British Open on Sunday. 'We're trying to keep it private between Oakmont, myself and the USGA. I'm just happy we have a pathway moving forward, and like you said, I'm hoping we can get past this and move on and hope there's no ill-will towards me and Oakmont.' As for why that letter was made public, though, Clark didn't seem too pleased. 'We were hoping it was going to be private,' he said. 'I'll just leave it at that.' The locker room incident was the second such outburst Clark has made this summer. He launched his driver into a sponsor wall behind a tee box at Quail Hollow Club during the PGA Championship after a bad shot. That left a big hole in the sign and actually broke his driver. Thankfully, nobody was behind him at the time. He apologized for that incident, too. Clark said he's had temper issues in the past, but he's trying to learn from the latest two outbursts. He also said it was a 'no-brainer' to pay for the damages he caused at Oakmont. 'I've been pretty open about my mental shift and change to get better, and I did that in '23 and '24, and then having a tough year and all the expectations and just frustration all coming together, and I did two stupid things,' he said. 'But one thing that it did do is wake me up and get me back into the person I know I am and the person I want to be. 'I hope those things don't reflect because I don't think they reflect on who I am, and going forward that stuff is not going to happen again.' Clark finished T4 at the British Open on Sunday with his final-round 65. That was his best finish at a major championship since he won the U.S. Open in Los Angeles in 2023. Clark now has two top-10 finishes on Tour this season. He entered Royal Portrush at No. 28 in the Official World Golf Rankings. Though Clark is currently banned from Oakmont, it won't be much of an issue for him for a while. The course isn't set to host the U.S. Open again until 2033, which is the final year that Clark can play in the tournament under his 10-year exemption he received for his win. 'That's up to them,' he said when asked if he'll get to play there again. 'I really don't know. I would hope so … I did something awful, and I'm really sorry for it. Hopefully they have it in their heart to forgive me, and maybe in the future I'll be able to play there.'

Ole Miss football player Corey Adams is killed in Tennessee shooting
Ole Miss freshman football player Corey Adams was killed in a shooting in Tennessee, the Shelby County Sheriff's Office announced Sunday. Law enforcement officials found Adams with a gunshot wound inside a vehicle at an intersection in Cordova on the outskirts of Memphis late Saturday, the sheriff's office said in a statement. 'They provided life-saving measures until Shelby County Fire arrived,' the sheriff's office said. 'Shelby County Fire personnel later pronounced the victim deceased on the scene.' Four other men who suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds in the incident arrived at nearby hospitals in personal vehicles, authorities said. Law enforcement officials have not named any suspects but said they are investigating the shooting as a homicide. Adams, an 18-year-old New Orleans native, had been one of the top defensive linemen recruits in the country. The football program at the University of Mississippi said in a social media post it was 'devastated' to learn of Adams' death. 'While our program is trying to cope with this tragic loss, our thoughts are with his loved ones during this incredibly difficult time,' the team said. 'We ask the Ole Miss community to keep Corey in their thoughts and respect the privacy of everyone involved.' Adams' former New Orleans high school football team, the Edna Karr Cougars, said in a Facebook post that 'words can't describe this type of pain.' 'Corey Adams was more than a football player! He was a friend, brother, son, student, and all around great young man,' the team stated. 'We never question God but this is one we just don't understand.'
