The Nose Refuses To Talk About Sharknado

This hour, the Nose will definitely NOT talk about Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!

But they will cover Gawker's horrible week. After lots of backlash, the online site retracted a story in which they outed a married executive who solicited a male prostitute. They've now made the pledge to be "20%  nicer." Or maybe just 10%.

Under pressure from the state NAACP, Connecticut Democrats changed the name of their annual fundraiser  - formerly the Jefferson Jackson Bailey dinner. Not everyone is happy about that. We'll hear what our panelists have to say. 

And is "ghosting" the ultimate millennial way to break up? It happens when you end a relationship with zero explanation and zero communication.  Charlize apparently did it to Sean, so maybe it's catching on.
