Readers,
Tonight marks the official end of awards season. Hoorah!
Although I'm thinking that in a presidential election year it feels like we're counting down to another big awards ceremony in November. The Democratic cast of characters is battling it out for Best Candidate as we speak. I wonder if the final field will be as heavily favored towards white and male as tonight's major categories? Methinks so.
A couple of weeks ago I reminded subscribers of a looming governmental task - the accursed RealID. Many wrote in to either thank me for the tip and/or share their own story of DMV purgatory. More transpo ID news this week…
Alert: New Yorkers, we are caught in a political/governmental pissing match due to the front-frunner-for-Lead-Actor-in-a-Farce's decision to rescind "Global Entry" privileges. That's right: our God-given right to TSA-Pre status is being threatened. Fight back!
In the meantime, good luck with your Oscar pool. I am entering a particularly heavy travel zone, straight through April. I wish myself good luck with TSA-pre, Global Entry, Coronavirus, shitty cabernet, and other hazards of travel. Good news is that I will have plenty of flight time to cull for the most important, thought-provoking news about women in politics, news, business, media, health, the arts, and pop culture. Hand-picked by me, for you, each week.

The LZ Sunday Paperâ„¢ launched at the dawn of 2014. We expose and recirculate interesting content that is about, and frequently by, women in business, with a dose of ultra-relevant culture. We think that culture comes high and low, not much in between. Our audience is vast and not gender-driven. Every week we expect to deliver at least one good laugh. Send suggestions, clips, or names of people you think might enjoy this to LZSundayPaper@gmail.com.
