The United Kingdom celebrated Trooping the Colour on June 13, and the royal family dressed to impress (even if some still wound up on the worst-dressed list for this year's event). Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, was no exception, and she looked great — except for one thing.

Donald Trump is an avid golfer, even if he doesn't always dress the part. His golf reputation may be blown by now, but he's still a connoisseur. Nonetheless, when he became a first-time presidential hopeful, he assured voters that he would have more important things to do. "I love golf, but if I were in the White House, I don't think I'd ever see Turnberry again. I don't think I'd ever see Doral again," Trump told a New Hampshire crowd during a 2016 rally (per NBC News).

What was your first job as a journalist?

Freelance writer. If you don't count high school paper, but we weren't paid. Some real child labor crap.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes, but it was an electric one my grandmother gave me. I loved it for that reason, but hated it because you don't plug in a real typewriter.

How is social media changing news?

Social media is democratizing news, with the all the benefits and dangerous issues that come with it.
