Summary

YouTuber Lilly Singh, known as "SuperWoman" online, recently debuted her late-night talk show, "A Little Late with Lilly Singh."

Then, feminist writer Lauren Duca is chastised by her former students at NYU. Plus, critical reviews for the film "Joker" have ramped up in outrage over its allegedly "problematic" subject matter.
