After the announcement that runner Eliza Fletcher had been found dead, authorities in Memphis sought to quiet the social media rumors that had sprung up during the four-day search. At a Tuesday press conference, Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy took pains to say Fletcher’s family had been “fully cooperative” with law enforcement during the search, almost as soon as he’d offered them his condolences. “In contrast to whatever baseless speculation you might have seen, we have no reason to think this was anything other than an isolated attack by a stranger,...

As Covid’s shadow swept across the independent film market over the past 20 months, the banking and finance sector experienced a collective shudder: insurance was unavailable; completion bonders blocked Covid-19 cover; A-listers avoided shoots; and streamers shifted millions of eyeballs away from already shuttered cinemas. Now, as AFM prepares for an all-online offering, with many grateful for the early decision to drop a physical event, entertainment bankers, second-tier financiers and sales companies are taking stock while looking forward to 2022.
“During Covid, survival has become the new success,” says Mister Smith Entertainment’s David Garrett. “We’ve all been navigating choppy waters, and Covid has exacerbated a perfect storm, with streamer and studio productions putting pressure on the independent production sector in terms of cast and crew availability. There have been huge gaps in cash flow across the business due to production and delivery delays, but we miraculously managed to get...

Greg Quail.
Essential Media Group (Emg) CEO Greg Quail and North American president Jesse Fawcett have purchased the Essential companies from the collapsed Kew Media Group.
The deal gives Quail and Fawcett full control of the group’s Us, Australian and New Zealand operations while Dave Cole, managing director of post house Two Dogs.TV, regains a minority stake.
“It’s been a very distracting time. We’re looking forward to getting back to business and making TV shows,” Quail told If today.
Emg was formed by the merger of Australia’s Essential Media and Entertainment, Fawcett’s La- based 11 Television, Quail Entertainment Us and the North American joint venture Essential Quail Television (Eqtv).

Melbourne, Dec 7: Babies with depressed fathers are three times more likely to develop emotional and behavioural problems than their peers with happier dads, a new study has warned.
The study of more than 2600 families found that children whose fathers experienced depression when they were born are at heightened risk to have behaviour problems when they were between four and five.
The study leader, Richard Fletcher, said the research found maternal and paternal postnatal depression often occurred at the same time, creating a "worst case scenario" for their children.
The study found that the 1.3 per cent of fathers experienced symptoms of depression when their children were born, compared with 2.6 per cent of mothers.

Melbourne, Oct 21: Teenage boys with a father figure in their lives are less likely to engage in delinquent behaviour, a new study has found.
According to a data collected between 1994 and 2008 from about 11,000 Us children, it was found that delinquent behaviour was lowest among boys living with a father figure.
But the same cannot be said for girls, as researchers from the Us National Bureau of Economic Research said that the presence or absence of such father figures can be linked less among adolescent girls if they engage themselves in delinquent behaviour, reports the Age.
A senior lecturer at the University of Newcastle, Richard Fletcher expressed concerns that the researchers used crude measures to find parental.
