The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort PageEp. 6: "And the Oscar Goes To..."This week on The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort Page 1. The Democratic Party Primaries in Iowa and New Hampshire I've written a couple of pieces outlining my thoughts on the results post-Iowa and post-New Hampshire. It's still anyone's game (amongst the top 5 or so): https://medium.com/@elisac/democratic-primary-hot-take-everybody-chill-3487898dbced https://medium.com/@elisac/electoral-politics-are-like-wall-street-expectations-matter-5890c9ad5c50 2.

The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort PageEp. 5: Don't Dream It's OverThis week on The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort Page 1. The Iowa Caucuses Yes, kind of a debacle, but no, noting to freak out about too much AND perhaps this will finally get people to seriously talk about ending the current way the primary season kicks off. 2. The Good Place finale and Parasite I watched two VERY different pieces of work this week. Both worthy, but it leads me to my question of the week: Do you need a character that you really like and root for in order to enjoy a movie or TV show? 3. Quick Takes: This week...

The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort PageEp.4: This Woman's WorkThis week on The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort Page 1. #Boycott NFL Boycotting means not partaking even when your lifelong team finally makes it back to the Super Bowl. #sigh. Question of the week: What's the ethical stand you stick to even though it's hard? 2. Jojo Rabbit My thoughts on this Oscar-nominated film and the conflict between entertainment and impact it brings up for me. 3. Women are not the status quo. Guy Kawasaki interviews presidential candidate Andrew Yang this wee on his podcast, and it brings up some feelings about the #patriarchy for me. (What are the chances, right?) https...

The New York Times couldn't choose between two worthy Democratic Party candidates, apparently.

The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort PageEp. 1: Nothing But Star WarsThis week on The Op-Ed Page with Elisa Camahort Page 1. #NotResolutionsJustHabits My approach (or non-approach) to "New Years Resolutions." 2. 🎶Star Warrrrs, Nothing But Star Warrrrs. 🎶 I spent much of my holiday break in the Star Wars Universe, seeing both Rise of Skywalker and the full first season of The Mandalorian on Disney+. Pretty spoiler-free :) 3. Politics Iran is top of mind this week, and the most recent presidential press conference had me ruminating on how we can't even agree on the meaning of words anymore. 4.
