Hong Kong's Richest Man Lectures Protesters to 'Love China'
Hong Kong’s wealthiest man, Li Ka-shing, bought multiple front-page newspaper ads Friday encouraging protesters to “love China” and “love [the] rule of law.” The 91-year-old also apparently paid a man known as the “French Spider-Man” to unfurl a large red banner showing a unified Chinese communist and Hong Kong flag and two hands shaking. Li’s front-page ads used cryptic language to discourage Hong Kong residents from protesting against the repressive communist state, as they have been doing by the millions since early June. The ad featured the Chinese character for the word “violence” crossed out by a red circle and the message, “the best intentions can bring the worst results,…

Inside Facebook’s fight against European regulation
We don’t need no regulation. That was the message from Facebook to the European Commission over a period of four years, according to dozens of emails and written accounts of arguments made by the social media company in private meetings with Commission officials. The documents show that the company’s representatives pushed back against almost any form of regulation of its businesses in the EU. “The industry does not need a regulatory push to improve,” the company told the Commission in March 2016, according to the Commission’s written summary of the meeting. The internal Commission documents, dated from 2015 to early 2018, were obtained through a freedom of information request by…

Brussels warns Italy, Greece over high debt and bad loans
Brussels has a — slightly repetitive — message for the bloc’s most fragile economies: They need to get serious about fiscal discipline or remain vulnerable to an economic shock. Italy, Cyprus and Greece are all experiencing “excessive” imbalances in their economies because of high debt and the number of soured loans on their bank balance sheets, the European Commission said Wednesday. The Commission issued the warning as part of its European Semester Winter Package, which scrutinizes the economies of EU countries. The package serves as a basis for further talks between Brussels and the bloc’s capitals about their reform targets and whether their spending plans respect EU rules. Bulgaria, France, Croatia, Germany,…

Tua Tagovailoa's seven best fits in 2020 NFL Draft, from favorite Dolphins to long-shot Patriots | Sporting News
Tua Tagovailoa received the highest level of praise from Alabama coach Nick Saban. In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Saban compared Tagovailoa with two of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. “I think he’s a lot like Drew Brees. I always thought Aaron Rodgers was a lot like that as a player, too,” Saban told SI. “Not overly big, accurate with the ball, really good judgment, decision-making. Those guys are the style of player. I would never say the expectation should be he would accomplish what those guys have. I’d never want to put that on a guy. But that’s the style of player he is.” No pressure, Tua. Of course, Tagovailoa is coming off a gruesome season-ending injury…
