Top ABC News exec is fired after probe into 'racist comments about black staffers' including Good Morning America host Robin Roberts
Barbara Fedida, the head of ABC News talent who was accused of making racially inappropriate remarks at black staffers, has been let go from her job
Peter Rice, chairman of ABC News parent Walt Disney Television, said she was terminated after an internal investigation
The investigation, he said, found there were 'unacceptable racially insensitive comments attributed to her'
The investigation began in June after Fedida was accused of making sexist remarks and racist comments toward black journalists at the network
Among them, she was accused of quipping that ABC News doesn't make GMA host Robin Roberts 'pick cotton' when questioning a potential pay raise for her

EXCLUSIVE: Ghislaine Maxwell paid $25K to fake news purveyor Jacob Wohl to 'smear Epstein victims and to get NY AG Geoffrey Berman fired in attempt to stall sex trafficking investigation against her
Ghislaine Maxwell hired Jacob Wohl to smear alleged victims of Jeffrey Epstein and her, a former friend told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview
As part of a $25k deal, Wohl and his lobbyist colleague Jack Burkman also allegedly pushed to get former New York US Attorney Geoffrey Berman fired
Wohl and Burkman are far-right lobbyists who have become a laughing stock in DC after several failed attempts to smear top political figures
Maryland paralegal Kristin Spealman claims she was initially contacted by the duo to use her in a smear campaign against Nancy Pelosi and Ted Cruz
Spealman told DailyMail.com bragged to her they had been hired around early June for $25,000 to dig up dirt on Maxwell's alleged sex trafficking victims
Federal documents filed this month show a company linked to Maxwell had hired Wohl and Burkman to lobby on ‘issues relating to US DOJ, Senate Judiciary, House Judiciary,’ DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal
Berman's removal was intended to stall or stop the criminal investigation into Maxwell, Spealman said
Berman was ultimately pushed out by Barr in June, but two weeks later Maxwell was charged as part of Epstein's sex trafficking ring

New York state looks to tax stock trades with revenue in free fall
Democrats in New York state, the world's financial capital, may finally have the right moment to resurrect the state tax on stock trades.
One-fifth of the state's revenue is disappearing, leaving a projected four-year deficit of $61 billion. Progressive Democrats are on the ascent in the state Legislature. Stock trading has surged. And taxing it would raise $13 billion a year to avert painful cuts to government services during a pandemic that's exaggerating economic and racial inequality.
"If ever there was an opportune moment for New York to resurrect its stock transfer tax, it's now," said Andrew Silverman, a Bloomberg Intelligence analyst. "The state Legislature is probably more amenable now than at any time in decades."
Last month, about 100 members of the 213 members of the New York Legislature signed a letter saying the state should raise taxes on the rich before cutting spending to balance the budget. Other Democratic proposals include raising taxes on billionaires, large corporations and second-home purchases of $5 million or more.
One benefit to the stock-transfer tax is that much of it would come from wealthy out-of-state residents who execute trades in New York, said Phil Steck, a Democratic assemblyman from Schenectady. He has received more than 20 co-sponsors for his bill to repeal the 100% rebate on the tax, which remains on the books but was effectively killed off in 1981 when the New York Stock Exchange considered leaving.
In 2016, the wealthiest 10% of Americans owned 84% of stocks, according to a study by New York University Professor Edward Wolff.

DONALD Trump allegedly made racist comments about Barack Obama and Nelson Mandela, a lawsuit filed from the President's former "fixer" Michael Cohen claims.
The Trump administration is being sued by The American Civil Liberties Union and law firm Perry Guha LLP for locking up Cohen, Trump's convicted ex-lawyer.
According to the ACLU lawsuit, filed on Monday, the book will describe Trump's secretive behavior
"Mr. Cohen’s book describes Mr. Cohen’s first-hand experiences with Mr. Trump, and it provides graphic details about the President’s behavior behind closed doors," the Cohen V. Barr - Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus states.
"For example, the narrative describes pointedly certain anti-Semitic remarks against prominent Jewish people and virulently racist remarks against such Black leaders as President Barack Obama and Nelson Mandela."
The petition was filed against the Justice Department and Bureau of Prisons.
