Matt Levine: "The Justice Dep=rtment caught the banks doing things that it didn't like and fined them bi=lions of dollars, but won't stop them from doing most of those things. As =ong as there are no more ambiguities or misunderstandings about what they =re. It's a weird stalemate." Read more...

TECH

Leonid Bershidsky: "Apple alm=st certainly made a sound decision by giving up on the idea of developing = television set. There's not much it could have contributed that South Kor=an market leaders haven't already thought of. Nonetheless, Apple could sti=l change the way the way we watch television and movies if it decided to c=eate a smart projector." Read more...

2016 ELECTIONS

Francis Wilkinson: "The 2016 =epublican candidates are vastly superior to those of 2012, when Mitt Romne= was the only good choice in a disturbingly weak field. It's unclear how m=ch the higher quality of candidates will matter, however, because the part= is very much the same." Read more...

Jonathan Bernstein: "We're ab=ut to see some wild behavior from the Republican presidential candidates. =t least that's what the cable networks are trying to arrange." Read more...

COMPANIES

Justin Fox: "With federal reg=lators having made clear that the No. 1 cable company (Comcast) wasn't goi=g to be allowed to buy the No. 2 (Time Warner Cable), things are getting r=ally interesting for everybody but No. 1." Read more...

CHINA

Noah Feldman: "North Korea an=ounced Wednesday that it has developed warheads of its own, making the tra=sition from a nuclear-capable power to a nuclear-loaded one. The North Kor=ans may be lying or exaggerating, of course. But even so, the announcement=augurs a new stage in the complex relationship between China and North Kor=a." Read more...<=span>

MEDIA

Megan McArdle: "If we want fe=er false stories from the media and academia, it's no mystery how to do th=t: We need to reward people for rigorous investigations of interesting que=tions, not for finding the incredible." Read more...

TRANSPORTATION

William Pesek: "The dubious h=nor of triggering the largest consumer recall in U.S. history -- once held=by Johnson & Johnson's Tylenol -- now belongs to the Japanese auto parts s=pplier Takata. ... It's not too late to hope some good can come from this =isfortune. Ideally, it will serve as a wakeup call for the Japanese govern=ent and the global auto industry." Read more...

MIDDLE EAST

Marc Champion: "Islamic State=has just taken the city of Palmyra in Syria, putting at risk its magnifice=t ruins and raising two questions: Why did the government and its military=not fight harder to hold the town and its oil fields? And will the Islamis= radicals now engage in an orgy of cultural destruction, as they have done=in Iraq?" Read more..=

HILLARY CLINTON

Margaret Carlson: "This week,=Hillary Clinton broke her almost month-long streak of avoiding the press. =fter a speech on small businesses in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, she took six ques=ions from reporters. ... What would have been a squirm-inducing moment for=any other candidate was for Clinton an occasion to draw on skills tempered=in the fires of decades in politics." =a href="http://link.mail.bloombergview.com/55086a4c3b35d051538c37cc2mrla=14fu/VV5d-0mOzqCpttXWB2e28" style="text-decoration:none;color:#00b9e7;li=e-height:1.6em">Read more...

SPORTS

Kavitha A. Davidson: "As the =ld saying goes, 'If you threaten to build it, they will come.' All right, =o maybe that's not quite what Shoeless Joe meant in 'Field of Dreams.' But=the San Diego Chargers are proving it once again to be true." Read more...
