His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

As research comes out, we’ll be happy to make changes indicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The research to date has already compelled the league to make some changes.

Researchers have subsequently confirmed CTE in more than 100 deceased NFL players. Will Smith played Omalu in the 2015 film “Concussion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s very basic common sense,” said Omalu. “There is no safe blow to the human head.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite efforts to improve the safety of football helmets, he argues that the danger cannot be prevented with any helmet currently in existence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A child, after one game, could suffer permanent brain damage,” said Omalu. “After just one season of football, your child could suffer permanent brain damage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why Omalu believes only people over 18 should play contact sports. Adults could still suffer serious damage, but they’re old enough to consent to the risk, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Football is a good sport, an exciting sport for adults who want to play,” Omalu said, while adding, “we need to protect our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11648127\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11648127\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/PeterBoehm-800x600.jpg\" alt='Peter Boehm, 14-year-old quarterback of the Pop Warner L.A.

Adults could still suffer serious damage, but they’re old enough to consent to the risk, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Football is a good sport, an exciting sport for adults who want to play,” Omalu said, while adding, “we need to protect our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11648127\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11648127\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/PeterBoehm-800x600.jpg\" alt='Peter Boehm, 14-year-old quarterback of the Pop Warner L.A.

I watch their position,” she said. She has had a lot of practice watching defensive linebackers and said her boys play a lot alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Watching them on the field, you would kind of forget which one of them you were there watching because everything about them, their stance when they're lined up, everything’s the same,” Thagon said. “Or when they’re squatted down, they’re squatting the same way with the same knee up. It’s crazy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She knows only one team can win, which means one of her sons will be disappointed. But they don’t talk about the losses. They move on.

Mychal’s already in his sixth NFL season, and Marvin would like to see him get a Super Bowl win.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’d like to see Mychal go this time,\" he said later in our interview. “Philly hasn’t gone and he’s been in the league six years now. He’s got less time left than Eric. Eric, their team is young enough I think they’ll be back again real soon.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marvin says that while the brothers are close, they aren’t talking to each other this week. He’s just glad they both play defense and won’t actually have a chance to hit one another on the field. He has already heard some trash talk from each of them.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/DeJss9pQBxs'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/DeJss9pQBxs'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The boys' mother, Yvonne Thagon, who separated from Marvin early in the boys' lives and raised them, plans to be at the game Sunday in person. She said she had a premonition it might come to this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had known that it was going to come down to this, to this weekend where they would probably be playing each other,” Thagon said. She wouldn’t dream of taking sides, but says other fans sometimes look at her funny when she cheers for both teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they’re playing like that against each other, I just watch them. I watch their position,” she said. She has had a lot of practice watching defensive linebackers and said her boys play a lot alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Watching them on the field, you would kind of forget which one of them you were there watching because everything about them, their stance when they're lined up, everything’s the same,” Thagon said. “Or when they’re squatted down, they’re squatting the same way with the same knee up. It’s crazy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She knows only one team can win, which means one of her sons will be disappointed. But they don’t talk about the losses. They move on. She’s looking forward to grabbing dinner with the two of them after the Super Bowl, when they can just be a family again.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I mean that. Very grateful. My childhood team, but it's a results business. I understand that,\" Del Rio said. \"I appreciate the players and coaches and all the hard work, all the effort and energy. I do believe we have established a solid nucleus. Whoever comes in here has a chance to take that nucleus and go to special places, and I'll be pulling for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders followed the successful 2016 season by becoming one of the league's most disappointing teams. Oakland went 6-10 for the second-biggest one-season drop in wins in franchise history, leading to Del Rio's firing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis said in a statement that he appreciated Del Rio's effort in building the foundation for the future and thanked his family for contributing to the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis said he will not have any other statement until after a new coach has been hired, but speculation is already rampant that Jon Gruden will be back for a second stint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gruden was traded by the Raiders to Tampa Bay following the 2001 season and beat Oakland for the Super Bowl title the following season. He was fired by the Buccaneers following the 2008 season and has been in the broadcast booth since then. ESPN reported Saturday that the Raiders were interested in bringing Gruden back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis has always been intrigued about a second stint with Gruden, but it seemed unlikely the franchise would be in for another change heading into this season. Del Rio had been the ninth coach in Oakland since Gruden left and the only one to get the team to the playoffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That wasn't enough to save his job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I honor the owner's decision,\" Del Rio said. \"It was a great honor for me to lead this organization and get this opportunity, and I understand it's a results business. We had a great first two years, and this year was a big disappointment, and I can't disagree with that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Del Rio, who grew up in Hayward cheering for the Raiders, took over a three-win team in 2015 and immediately changed the culture and helped Oakland win seven games that season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders had a breakthrough season in 2016 with 12 wins, but it ended in disappointment when a broken leg for quarterback Derek Carr in Week 16 cost the Raiders a chance at a division title and led to a first-round playoff loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Expectations were high coming into this season with Carr and most of the key offensive pieces back, along with the addition of running back Marshawn Lynch and tight end Jared Cook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Del Rio's decision to fire offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave after last season despite a dynamic offense and replace him with quarterbacks coach Todd Downing backfired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The offense regressed significantly this season as Carr struggled under Downing's tutelage, and the defense showed no signs of improvement before defensive coordinator Ken Norton Jr. was fired after 10 games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders had major drops in points per game (26 to 18.8) and yards per game (373.3 to 324.1), and committed twice as many turnovers (14 to 28) this season as Carr took a major step back in his development after signing a $125 million, five-year extension in the offseason.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have to take our ownership as players,\" Carr said. \"That's where we're at right now. We're kind of angry we let it get to that. We're upset at ourselves. We understand the business part of it. As players our job is to come back better and hungry.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense became the first in NFL history to fail to record an interception in the first 10 games of the season and generated only 14 takeaways all season compared to 30 in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That all led to the decision to fire Del Rio, whose 187 games as a head coach are the most for anyone without a division title in his career.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Del Rio finished his stint in Oakland with a 25-23 regular-season record. The Raiders won just 13 games in the three seasons before he arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's tough,\" cornerback Sean Smith said. \"He was a coach that played the game, and he was a player's coach, you know what I mean, so you always like those kind of coaches because they relate to you easily. Came to work with a smile every day, and definitely enjoyed playing for him, but it just sucks because he's the coach. As a player, we didn't play up to our expectations, and he had to pay the price.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Oakland went 6-10 for the second-biggest one-season drop in wins in franchise history, leading to Del Rio's firing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis said in a statement that he appreciated Del Rio's effort in building the foundation for the future and thanked his family for contributing to the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis said he will not have any other statement until after a new coach has been hired, but speculation is already rampant that Jon Gruden will be back for a second stint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gruden was traded by the Raiders to Tampa Bay following the 2001 season and beat Oakland for the Super Bowl title the following season. He was fired by the Buccaneers following the 2008 season and has been in the broadcast booth since then. ESPN reported Saturday that the Raiders were interested in bringing Gruden back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis has always been intrigued about a second stint with Gruden, but it seemed unlikely the franchise would be in for another change heading into this season. Del Rio had been the ninth coach in Oakland since Gruden left and the only one to get the team to the playoffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That wasn't enough to save his job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I honor the owner's decision,\" Del Rio said. \"It was a great honor for me to lead this organization and get this opportunity, and I understand it's a results business. We had a great first two years, and this year was a big disappointment, and I can't disagree with that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Del Rio, who grew up in Hayward cheering for the Raiders, took over a three-win team in 2015 and immediately changed the culture and helped Oakland win seven games that season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders had a breakthrough season in 2016 with 12 wins, but it ended in disappointment when a broken leg for quarterback Derek Carr in Week 16 cost the Raiders a chance at a division title and led to a first-round playoff loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Expectations were high coming into this season with Carr and most of the key offensive pieces back, along with the addition of running back Marshawn Lynch and tight end Jared Cook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Del Rio's decision to fire offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave after last season despite a dynamic offense and replace him with quarterbacks coach Todd Downing backfired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The offense regressed significantly this season as Carr struggled under Downing's tutelage, and the defense showed no signs of improvement before defensive coordinator Ken Norton Jr. was fired after 10 games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders had major drops in points per game (26 to 18.8) and yards per game (373.3 to 324.1), and committed twice as many turnovers (14 to 28) this season as Carr took a major step back in his development after signing a $125 million, five-year extension in the offseason.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have to take our ownership as players,\" Carr said. \"That's where we're at right now. We're kind of angry we let it get to that. We're upset at ourselves. We understand the business part of it. As players our job is to come back better and hungry.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense became the first in NFL history to fail to record an interception in the first 10 games of the season and generated only 14 takeaways all season compared to 30 in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That all led to the decision to fire Del Rio, whose 187 games as a head coach are the most for anyone without a division title in his career.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Del Rio finished his stint in Oakland with a 25-23 regular-season record. The Raiders won just 13 games in the three seasons before he arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's tough,\" cornerback Sean Smith said. \"He was a coach that played the game, and he was a player's coach, you know what I mean, so you always like those kind of coaches because they relate to you easily. Came to work with a smile every day, and definitely enjoyed playing for him, but it just sucks because he's the coach. As a player, we didn't play up to our expectations, and he had to pay the price.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>Writing on June 16, 1966, just one day after the film \u003cem>The Endless Summer \u003c/em>finally got a wide release, \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9C0CE0D7153CE53BBC4E52DFB066838D679EDE&pagewanted=print\">The New York Times remarked\u003c/a> on its creator’s “courage — some might say foolhardiness.” For years, he struggled to convince film distributors that even people who had never seen a beach before would want to see his surfing film.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Bruce Brown was right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Sunday, more than half a century since \u003cem>The Endless Summer\u003c/em> hit big screens across America, Brown died at the age of 80 in Santa Barbara. He leaves behind a film that defined surfing for a worldwide audience and, after a slew of earlier big-screen misrepresentations, finally did so on the sport’s own terms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There had already been a surfing boom in Hollywood by the mid-1960s, to be sure, but the surfers they featured rarely failed to be flimsy depictions of no-goodniks or ninnies — and rarely failed to frustrate actual surfers. Then, Brown’s film came along.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What Bruce did, and what nobody has done since, was to square the circle,” \u003ca href=\"https://encyclopediaofsurfing.com/\">Matt Warshaw\u003c/a>, author of \u003cem>The History of Surfing\u003c/em>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/12/obituaries/bruce-brown-documentarian-of-surfing-is-dead-at-80.html\">told The New York Times\u003c/a>. “He was able to present surfing as it really is, to non-surfers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11636766\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11636766\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-800x523.jpg\" alt=\"Bruce Brown captured this, the first footage of anyone surfing the infamous Banzai Pipeline off Oahu, Hawaii.\" width=\"800\" height=\"523\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-800x523.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-160x105.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-1020x667.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-1180x772.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-960x628.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-240x157.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-375x245.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-520x340.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bruce Brown captured this, the first footage of anyone surfing the infamous Banzai Pipeline off Oahu, Hawaii. \u003ccite>(Surf the Earth/YouTube)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“\u003cem>Endless Summer\u003c/em> is 50-something years old now,” Warshaw \u003ca href=\"https://www.surfer.com/features/history-of-surfing-defining-a-surfer/\">explained to Surfer magazine\u003c/a> earlier this year, “and every year that goes by, it’s harder to remember the degree to which Bruce broke the laws of entertainment physics by managing to please and impress both his core audience and the general public.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documentary, which featured two of Brown’s friends on a round-the-globe quest to find the perfect wave, was — \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2014/07/24/334459717/revisiting-an-endless-summer\">as Ian Buckwalter wrote\u003c/a> for NPR — “part surfing film, part travelogue, occasionally even anthropological study and wildlife film, but ultimately it visually taps into the wanderlust that sends us to far-flung beaches in search of an escape from life that we can’t find at home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was shot on a shoestring budget of $50,000 and destined to earn more than $30 million.

After his discharge, he would show the movies at small venues in Southern California for the price of a quarter, until a local surfboard manufacturer put up a few thousand dollars for him to produce a whole feature in Hawaii, \u003cem>Slippery When Wet\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What followed was a series of movies (one every year, in fact) that would get a limited release and were attended mostly by other surfers. But even these small-scale pictures made an impact. In fact, his 1961 film \u003cem>Surfing Hollow Days\u003c/em> lays claim to its own corner of surfing history. It includes the first footage ever shot of surfers riding arguably the world’s most famous break, and even coined its name: the Banzai Pipeline off Oahu, Hawaii.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3930&v=5TLASiDL1mc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was \u003cem>The Endless Summer\u003c/em> that caught the world’s attention, at least eventually.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prospective distributors were deeply skeptical about a beach film’s ability to draw audiences far from the beach. So Brown and his associates pursued a crazy idea to show the film about as far from the beach as they could get: Wichita, Kansas. The Inertia, an outdoors sports news site, \u003ca href=\"http://www.theinertia.com/surf/bomb-scare-almost-ruined-endless-summer/\">sums up how\u003c/a> the stunt “has become part of the movie’s lore”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Wichita was slammed with a huge snowstorm that winter and icicles dangled from the marquee of the Sunset Theater that bore the name of the film in February 1966. [Promoter R. Paul] Allen feared a flop, but beneath the frosty sign that first night stretched a long line of Kansans, hopping up and down to stay warm while waiting to watch the adventures of Robert August and Mike Hynson on the big screen. The movie sold out two straight weeks. Distributors in New York still weren’t impressed, but the movie’s success in the middle of winter, in the middle of America, convinced Brown and Allen to keep fighting, and they rented out a theater in Manhattan and finally got the buzz they needed to turn the film into a $30 million behemoth.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>“I put everything I had on the line,” Brown \u003ca href=\"http://articles.latimes.com/1991-07-24/news/vw-112_1_endless-summer\">told the Los Angeles Times\u003c/a> in 1991. “If it wouldn’t have worked, it would have been the ball game.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it did work. Shortly after the film hit the big screen on a wide scale, it became a cultural icon, one so recognizable that even its movie poster is now \u003ca href=\"https://www.moma.org/collection/works/4801\">in the collection\u003c/a> of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Brown was \u003ca href=\"https://www.surfer.com/features/bruce_brown_enters_surfers_hall_of_fame/\">eventually enshrined\u003c/a> in surfing’s Hall of Fame, and his film was added to the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry, which selects works for their cultural and historic importance to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11636743\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11636743\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/endless-4_custom-1838b73c2161d6824a380a7d80b533b3d0d91cea-800x1073.jpg\" alt=\"The immortal film poster for The Endless Summer, which you may recognize from New York's Museum of Modern Art, not to mention college dorm room walls across the country.\" width=\"800\" height=\"1073\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The immortal film poster for ‘The Endless Summer,’ which you may recognize from New York’s Museum of Modern Art, not to mention college dorm room walls across the country. \u003ccite>(Monterey Media Inc.)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Brown would go on to earn an Oscar nomination for his documentary on motorcycle riders, \u003cem>On a Sunday\u003c/em>, and after a long retirement, he even returned in the early ’90s to release a sequel to his seminal surfing film.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it is \u003cem>The Endless Summer \u003c/em>that defines his legacy as a filmmaker and an ambassador for the sport he loved. And as soon as news of his death surfaced publicly, emotional tributes flowed in from some of the surfing world’s living legends — all-time greats such as Kelly Slater and Stephanie Gilmore, neither of whom had even been alive when the movie hit theaters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Thank you for showing us the world as you saw it,” Slater \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BckWV02gOsa/\">said on Instagram\u003c/a>. “We need more like you.

Before heading to Hawaii to film his first full-length feature, “I got in the plane with a book on how to make movies. It was a real thin book, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had no interest in cameras other than surfing,” he added. “I just wanted to take pictures of me and my buddies surfing — you know, just to show people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

He leaves behind a film that defined surfing for a worldwide audience and, after a slew of earlier big-screen misrepresentations, finally did so on the sport’s own terms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There had already been a surfing boom in Hollywood by the mid-1960s, to be sure, but the surfers they featured rarely failed to be flimsy depictions of no-goodniks or ninnies — and rarely failed to frustrate actual surfers. Then, Brown’s film came along.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What Bruce did, and what nobody has done since, was to square the circle,” \u003ca href=\"https://encyclopediaofsurfing.com/\">Matt Warshaw\u003c/a>, author of \u003cem>The History of Surfing\u003c/em>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/12/obituaries/bruce-brown-documentarian-of-surfing-is-dead-at-80.html\">told The New York Times\u003c/a>. “He was able to present surfing as it really is, to non-surfers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11636766\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11636766\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-800x523.jpg\" alt=\"Bruce Brown captured this, the first footage of anyone surfing the infamous Banzai Pipeline off Oahu, Hawaii.\" width=\"800\" height=\"523\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-800x523.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-160x105.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-1020x667.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-1180x772.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-960x628.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-240x157.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-375x245.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/PipelineFirst-520x340.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bruce Brown captured this, the first footage of anyone surfing the infamous Banzai Pipeline off Oahu, Hawaii. \u003ccite>(Surf the Earth/YouTube)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“\u003cem>Endless Summer\u003c/em> is 50-something years old now,” Warshaw \u003ca href=\"https://www.surfer.com/features/history-of-surfing-defining-a-surfer/\">explained to Surfer magazine\u003c/a> earlier this year, “and every year that goes by, it’s harder to remember the degree to which Bruce broke the laws of entertainment physics by managing to please and impress both his core audience and the general public.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After his discharge, he would show the movies at small venues in Southern California for the price of a quarter, until a local surfboard manufacturer put up a few thousand dollars for him to produce a whole feature in Hawaii, \u003cem>Slippery When Wet\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What followed was a series of movies (one every year, in fact) that would get a limited release and were attended mostly by other surfers. But even these small-scale pictures made an impact. In fact, his 1961 film \u003cem>Surfing Hollow Days\u003c/em> lays claim to its own corner of surfing history. It includes the first footage ever shot of surfers riding arguably the world’s most famous break, and even coined its name: the Banzai Pipeline off Oahu, Hawaii.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/5TLASiDL1mc'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/5TLASiDL1mc'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>But it was \u003cem>The Endless Summer\u003c/em> that caught the world’s attention, at least eventually.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prospective distributors were deeply skeptical about a beach film’s ability to draw audiences far from the beach. So Brown and his associates pursued a crazy idea to show the film about as far from the beach as they could get: Wichita, Kansas. The Inertia, an outdoors sports news site, \u003ca href=\"http://www.theinertia.com/surf/bomb-scare-almost-ruined-endless-summer/\">sums up how\u003c/a> the stunt “has become part of the movie’s lore”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Wichita was slammed with a huge snowstorm that winter and icicles dangled from the marquee of the Sunset Theater that bore the name of the film in February 1966. [Promoter R. Paul] Allen feared a flop, but beneath the frosty sign that first night stretched a long line of Kansans, hopping up and down to stay warm while waiting to watch the adventures of Robert August and Mike Hynson on the big screen. The movie sold out two straight weeks. Distributors in New York still weren’t impressed, but the movie’s success in the middle of winter, in the middle of America, convinced Brown and Allen to keep fighting, and they rented out a theater in Manhattan and finally got the buzz they needed to turn the film into a $30 million behemoth.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>“I put everything I had on the line,” Brown \u003ca href=\"http://articles.latimes.com/1991-07-24/news/vw-112_1_endless-summer\">told the Los Angeles Times\u003c/a> in 1991. “If it wouldn’t have worked, it would have been the ball game.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it did work. Shortly after the film hit the big screen on a wide scale, it became a cultural icon, one so recognizable that even its movie poster is now \u003ca href=\"https://www.moma.org/collection/works/4801\">in the collection\u003c/a> of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Brown was \u003ca href=\"https://www.surfer.com/features/bruce_brown_enters_surfers_hall_of_fame/\">eventually enshrined\u003c/a> in surfing’s Hall of Fame, and his film was added to the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry, which selects works for their cultural and historic importance to the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11636743\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11636743\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/endless-4_custom-1838b73c2161d6824a380a7d80b533b3d0d91cea-800x1073.jpg\" alt=\"The immortal film poster for The Endless Summer, which you may recognize from New York's Museum of Modern Art, not to mention college dorm room walls across the country.\" width=\"800\" height=\"1073\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The immortal film poster for ‘The Endless Summer,’ which you may recognize from New York’s Museum of Modern Art, not to mention college dorm room walls across the country. \u003ccite>(Monterey Media Inc.)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Brown would go on to earn an Oscar nomination for his documentary on motorcycle riders, \u003cem>On a Sunday\u003c/em>, and after a long retirement, he even returned in the early ’90s to release a sequel to his seminal surfing film.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it is \u003cem>The Endless Summer \u003c/em>that defines his legacy as a filmmaker and an ambassador for the sport he loved.

Now, at 86, he’s gone digital, delivering news through his website, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newsandguts.com/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">News and Guts\u003c/a>, and its associated Facebook page, which has more than one million followers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, Rather sat down to talk about his new book, “What Unites Us: Reflections on Patriotism,” his favorite books and his thoughts on Bay Area sports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What is your least favorite thing about social media?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First of all, I’m very grateful for what success we’ve had on social media. I have my Facebook page, and I have a new site, separate from Facebook, newsandguts.com. I’m very grateful for the reception that both of those have received in social media. But the ability of anonymous people to smear the reputations of other people or to spread propaganda and known untruths is one of the weaknesses of the post-digital divide, the whole world of news on the Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”GM0YuV2wJmtO5GJAaUWkARMIsFYrpk46″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I do think as time goes along, we’ll make adjustments and it’ll get better, but that’s the main concern. Particularly, the ability to ruin somebody’s reputation anonymously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What’s your favorite thing to do in the Bay Area when you visit?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, I’m a sports fan. Right now, I love to see the Warriors play. I did not get to a game this time around, but I did get back to my hotel room in time to have a hamburger and watch the Warriors play. I also like to see the Giants who’ve had some really good years. This last baseball season wasn’t their best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m sorry the Raiders were moving out of Oakland. If I’d had to vote, I wouldn’t have voted for that. The 49ers have been down. I’ve been following 49ers since before we had pro football in Texas, but they’ll be back. I think they got a pretty good quarterback now. We’ll see whether they can build around him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If you could tell everyone in the country to read one book other than yours, what would it be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let the record show that I’m giving it a little thought. I would say read Homer. Because the wisdom in Homer’s most famous two books has stood up over the centuries. It’s also a book that you can read it and keep reading it and learn something new each time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, say if you only have one book, then I would make it “The Iliad.” If you can have two, “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey.” I would consider that one long read. On a distant island with only one book, outside of possibly the Holy Bible, that’s what I’d take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Where do you get your news?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve spent a lifetime getting news from almost every conceivable place. I read newspapers. I read six, seven newspapers a day. I read magazines. Yes, I do more than occasionally, read a book. I watch television both on a regular television set, on my computer screen and on my iPhone. I’m pretty much all news, all the time, but that’s partly because I’m in the news business. But it’s also because I have a passion for following news and a passion for trying to report news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My absolute go-to base camps for news are the Associated Press and Reuters. Reasons: these are two news services with worldwide news gathering capacity. They have reporters all over the world. And two, they’ve been in business a long time, and they have high standards. So, if something appears, I say to myself quickly, “Is this news? Is it fake news? Is this true?” My base touching place is AP or Reuters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Has it been liberating for you to go from the anchor chair to social media where you have more freedom to inject your own feelings?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, I can just say, I play no favorites, pull no punches. I may be wrong, but this is what I think. This is what I know and trying to put things in context and perspective. Not only has it been liberating, but it’s been gratifying. Frankly, I had no idea that I could make it in social media. It’s one of the surprises in my life that I have.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This interview has been edited for length and clarity.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Now, at 86, he’s gone digital, delivering news through his website, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newsandguts.com/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">News and Guts\u003c/a>, and its associated Facebook page, which has more than one million followers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, Rather sat down to talk about his new book, “What Unites Us: Reflections on Patriotism,” his favorite books and his thoughts on Bay Area sports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What is your least favorite thing about social media?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First of all, I’m very grateful for what success we’ve had on social media. I have my Facebook page, and I have a new site, separate from Facebook, newsandguts.com. I’m very grateful for the reception that both of those have received in social media. But the ability of anonymous people to smear the reputations of other people or to spread propaganda and known untruths is one of the weaknesses of the post-digital divide, the whole world of news on the Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I do think as time goes along, we’ll make adjustments and it’ll get better, but that’s the main concern. Particularly, the ability to ruin somebody’s reputation anonymously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Right now, I love to see the Warriors play. I did not get to a game this time around, but I did get back to my hotel room in time to have a hamburger and watch the Warriors play. I also like to see the Giants who’ve had some really good years. This last baseball season wasn’t their best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m sorry the Raiders were moving out of Oakland. If I’d had to vote, I wouldn’t have voted for that. The 49ers have been down. I’ve been following 49ers since before we had pro football in Texas, but they’ll be back. I think they got a pretty good quarterback now. We’ll see whether they can build around him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If you could tell everyone in the country to read one book other than yours, what would it be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let the record show that I’m giving it a little thought. I would say read Homer. Because the wisdom in Homer’s most famous two books has stood up over the centuries. It’s also a book that you can read it and keep reading it and learn something new each time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, say if you only have one book, then I would make it “The Iliad.” If you can have two, “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey.” I would consider that one long read. On a distant island with only one book, outside of possibly the Holy Bible, that’s what I’d take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Where do you get your news?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve spent a lifetime getting news from almost every conceivable place. I read newspapers. I read six, seven newspapers a day. I read magazines. Yes, I do more than occasionally, read a book. I watch television both on a regular television set, on my computer screen and on my iPhone. I’m pretty much all news, all the time, but that’s partly because I’m in the news business. But it’s also because I have a passion for following news and a passion for trying to report news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My absolute go-to base camps for news are the Associated Press and Reuters. Reasons: these are two news services with worldwide news gathering capacity. They have reporters all over the world. And two, they’ve been in business a long time, and they have high standards. So, if something appears, I say to myself quickly, “Is this news? Is it fake news? Is this true?” My base touching place is AP or Reuters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Has it been liberating for you to go from the anchor chair to social media where you have more freedom to inject your own feelings?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, I can just say, I play no favorites, pull no punches. I may be wrong, but this is what I think. This is what I know and trying to put things in context and perspective. Not only has it been liberating, but it’s been gratifying. Frankly, I had no idea that I could make it in social media. It’s one of the surprises in my life that I have.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This interview has been edited for length and clarity.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
