Mr. Franklin, one of local television’s most enduring personalities, was on the air in New York from 1951 to 1993 as the host of a compellingly low-rent parade of has-beens and yet-to-bes.

Sleep-aid ZzzQuil left some followers wondering what year it was when they saw the brand’s recent engagement-themed tweet.
“SLEEP LIKE he finally proposed,” the tweet noted. “And you have been dating for a decade. #SleepLike #engaged #shesaidyes”
The message felt a bit too 1950s for women who’d like to move past the stereotype that peace of mind is all about finding a husband.
Despite being posted late Thursday and sparking quite a lot of backlash, the tweet remained live this morning, and the brand hasn’t responded to any of those upset by it.
Here are just a few of the responses:
@ZzzQuil Sleep like the only thing that’ll make you happy is a man! What is this, the 50s? #sexist

The management of FIFA, soccer’s international governing body, has long been controversial, prompting a challenger to step up to run against President Sepp Blatter when he seeks re-election in May.
U.K. bookmaker Paddy Power is backing a bid by former French international soccer player David Ginola, who has put his name forward as a candidate for the presidency and is trying to sign up support from five of FIFA’s 209 member federations, the number he needs in order to secure a place on to the ballot.
Mr. Ginola’s backer is controversial too; Paddy Power recently offered odds on the verdict in a high-profile murder trial. The bookmaker is partially funding the “Team Ginola” campaign, created by U.K. agency Lucky Generals with M&C Saatchi PR. Mr. Ginola is presented as “rebooting football” and promises to bring “democracy, transparency and equality” to the game.
