Social media users on X thrashed ABC News Friday after the outlet presented a campaign ad from former President Barack Obama in favor of a Virginia redistricting measure as an “exclusive.”

“Why the hell does a major news network consider an extremely partisan campaign ad an ‘exclusive’?” RealClearInvestigations senior writer Mark Hemingway asked.

The criticism followed ABC News labeling a campaign ad featuring Obama urging Virginians to vote “yes” on a redistricting measure as an exclusively obtained clip.

The measure could boost Democrats in the 2026 midterms if approved.

“By voting yes, you can push back against the Republicans trying to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterms,” Obama said in the video.

“By voting yes, you can take a temporary step to level the playing field. And we’re counting on you.”

Other criticism abounded in the comments of Hemingway’s post, with some accusing ABC of being a “propaganda machine” while others blasted the legacy media as a whole.

“It’s so exclusive I saw it on YouTube before my video started about 20 times in the past week,” one user wrote.

Retired U.S. diplomat Alberto Miguel Fernandez chimed in similarly: “Every time I turn on the television here in Virginia, I see Obama saying this nonsense. For weeks now. How in the world is this “exclusive” or even new, @ABCPolitics?”

Some criticized the outlet for what they described as a partisan slant.

“It’s a Democrat and it’s the corporate media. Same thing, really,” one wrote.

“Sounds like they might need to provide equal time [to the other side],” said another, while another accused them of “amplify[ing] the message for free.”

Others defended the network, responding to Hemingway’s question with, “Because it’s an exclusive I guess?” and by asking, “What does partisanship have to do with it?”

ABC News did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

For those of you who may be unaware, college baseball season is in full swing.

It may not be my favorite sport, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the ping of a metal bat ringing through my television speakers in the late spring months.

It’s all just a distraction, a pit stop, if you will, on the road back to college football, but it’s entertaining nonetheless.

On Friday afternoon, the 19th-ranked Oregon Ducks baseball team traveled to Champaign to take on the Fighting Illini, and a certain highlight from a rather innocuous conference series is making the rounds on social media.

A true freshman (who looks like he’s about 35 years old, but I digress) hit an absolute nuke that is probably still flying through restricted airspace as we speak.

Nearly 500 feet! What a bomb!

But, of course, with anything in life, there are people who will question the validity and awesomeness of something like this.

Let’s start with the positives.

Hitting a ball 496 feet is impressive no matter who does it or where it’s done.

This kid is also (allegedly) a freshman, and the only other time I remember hearing about a youngin hitting a ball this far was when Bryce Harper was launching Paul Bunyon-esque tank jobs in high school home run contests.

That guy turned out alright.

Also, why is this kid not playing football?

He looks like an NFL defensive end. I’m sure the Ducks could use an extra pass rusher this season.

Now, let’s see if we can predict what the negative Nellies on the internet are going to do to disparage this amateur space program of a home run.

“He’s using a metal bat.”

“It wasn’t actually 496, it just looks longer because there aren’t any outfield bleachers or obstructions.”

“Oh, the flags are really blowing, his ball must have caught a good breeze that carried it.”

“Balls are juiced, he never would have done that back in *insert random timeframe*.”

How’d I do? Did I nail it?

Yeah, when you’re as tragically online as I am, you can almost predict the narratives before they even pop up.

Do you remember about a decade ago when Giancarlo Stanton or Yasiel Puig would hit a 500ft home run and you’d hear all about it on Twitter?

Then you would check the highlight, see it was at Coors Field, and then immediately know 75 percent of the comments were going to be something to the effect of “do that at sea level, then we’ll talk.”

Time is a flat circle.

Enjoy college baseball season, everyone. Or at least try to before all these Debbie Downers kill the mood.

Jean Harlow’s iconic Los Angeles home is on the market.

The Hollywood darling’s former home in Los Angeles is up for sale for $16.8 million, in partnership with David Kramer of Compass.

Dubbed the “Jean Harlow Estate” by MGM, and often called the “Whitest House in the World,” per Architectural Digest, the home was originally built in 1932 and has 7,367-square-feet of living space, including four bedrooms and seven bathrooms.

The home features many additional rooms along with the usual common spaces, including a billiards room, temperature-controlled wine cellar, conservatory and library.

Located on a 1.32 acre property, the outside of the home boasts many desirable features, such as a large pool which still boasts the original diving board, Koi ponds, greenhouses, a full-size tennis court and many winding paths to walk down.

In addition to the main house, a 1,320-square-foot two-story guest house can be found on the grounds.

Known as Hollywood’s original blonde bombshell, Harlow made a name for herself playing provocative, confident women, breaking into the industry with her performance in the 1930 film, “Hell’s Angels,” after director and producer, Howard Hughes, cast her in the movie.

Harlow went on to star in many films throughout the 1930s, including six with legendary co-star, Clark Gable. Their on-screen connection was considered effortless, and their pairing has gone down as one of the most iconic in Hollywood history.

During an interview with Hollywood Magazine in 1935, Gable reflected on his first experience working with Harlow, saying, “she was one step ahead of me on the way to success” as she had already had a hit under her belt with “Hell’s Angels,” but said “she never made me feel that it was her picture any more than mine.”

“Neither of us knew much about the business, and we tried to figure things out together so the rest wouldn’t realize how awfully green we really were,” he said. “I remember Jean would ask me at the end of every scene—’How’m I doing?’ And I asked her the same.”

Their films together included “Red Dust,” “China Seas,” “Suzy” and “Saratoga” in 1937, which was also their final time on-screen together.

Harlow got sick during the filming of “Saratoga,” and ultimately died in June 1937 at the age of 26. The cause of death was later listed as kidney failure.

The film was later completed using stand-ins and was a huge box office success when it was released.

Since her death, Harlow became known as one of the original Hollywood movie stars, who is credited as paving the way for other bombshells to come, including another iconic blonde actress, Marilyn Monroe.

Gable was said to be distraught after learning of her death and even acted as a pallbearer at her funeral.

Throughout her life, Harlow was married three times. She was first married to Charles McGrew, briefly in 1927, and then later briefly married MGM executive Paul Bern in 1932, with the marriage ending after his mysterious death, which was ruled a suicide.

She married her third husband, Harold Rosson from 1933 to 1934, and was reportedly engaged to William Powell towards the end of her life.
