    LOS ANGELES --

    Riff Raff has signed director Brigg Bloomquist to its U.S. roster.

    Bloomquist specializes in narrative storytelling with a comedic edge. He began his career as an animator before moving into advertising, where he sharpened his storytelling skills as a copywriter. Alongside his commercial work, Bloomquist has directed short films and immersed himself in the world of improv comedy.

    Prior to joining Riff Raff, Bloomquist was repped in the U.S. by Bob Industries. He has directed campaigns worldwide for brands including Apple, Nike, Amazon, Reebok, Miller Lite, Visa, Intel, eBay, DoorDash, Bosch, and LEGO.

    Bloomquist said of Riff Raff, “I am thrilled to join this creative-driven collective. So impressed and, frankly, a bit intimidated by the other directors on this roster. Can’t wait to trade perspectives, musings, and barbs with this imaginative group of international talent, and learn from them along the way.”

    Riff Raff’s U.S. executive producer Suza Horvat said of Bloomquist, “His work blends beautiful comedy with stylish camera work. A true chameleon in the work, taking well-timed performances and comedic cues through to the gentle elegant storytelling. Working with all manner of talent…small, tall, celebrity and bear… excited to explore this range with new projects to come.”

    The operational impact of U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss' decision was not immediately clear — both because it will likely be appealed and because too much damage to the public-broadcasting system has already been done, both by the president and Congress.

    Moss ruled that President Donald Trump's executive order to cease funding for NPR and PBS is unlawful and unenforceable. The judge said the First Amendment right to free speech "does not tolerate viewpoint discrimination and retaliation of this type."

    "It is difficult to conceive of clearer evidence that a government action is targeted at viewpoints that the President does not like and seeks to squelch," wrote Moss, who was nominated to the bench by President Barack Obama, a Democrat.

    Punishment for "past speech" cited in decision
    The judge noted that Trump's executive order simply directs that all federal agencies "cut off any and all funding" to NPR, which is based in Washington, and PBS, based in Arlington, Virginia.

    "The Federal Defendants fail to cite a single case in which a court has ever upheld a statute or executive action that bars a particular person or entity from participating in any federally funded activity based on that person or entity's past speech," the judge wrote.

    Last year, Trump, a Republican, said at a news conference he would "love to" defund NPR and PBS because he believes they're biased in... Read More
