Statement by McCourt Global Executive Chairman Frank McCourt on Fernando Valenzuela's Passing: "Fernando Valenzuela changed MLB history forever, inspiring a generation of fans and uplifting the Latino community in Los Angeles and around the world. 'Fernandomania' ushered in a new era for the Dodgers leading them to a World?Series victory in 1981. Besides witnessing his?remarkable career, I had the privilege of working with him years later when he returned to the Dodgers to serve as the team’s Spanish-language commentator. Fernando’s talent on the field was matched only by his humility and dedication to the sport.?As we are on the eve of another World Series with Dodgers facing the Yankees, I will be thinking of him and his family — never forgetting the magic we all felt in his presence on the field and through his voice. Fernandomanía por siempre."

In his latest newsletter for The New York Times, Opinion Editor Peter Coy writes about "The People's Bid for TikTok," an effort led by Project Liberty.

On Friday, Frank McCourt appeared on Fox Business Network to speak with Liz Claman about the FTC Staff Report released last week that affirms what Project Liberty has asserted for years: major social media companies are scraping users' personal data while continuing to ignore the risks children face on their platforms.
