If there are absolutely horrible anomalies in the formatting, it's more likely to be caused by the user's OS than from the coding in the BWW site. 

The worst formatting error I've encountered in BWW's quote function is an occasional dropped space between words.

The quote button is not a requirement, and it's funny that people can't simply scroll up or discern what someone is talking about without the sometimes very, very long quote as reference. Everyone has their own style and complaining about it because you don't get it is really amusing.

In other news, Laura will be performing at the the Racist Alternative Nazi Halftime Show (Featuring Charlie Kirk's ghost as the special guest) since Bad Bunny is absolutely NOT an American citizen.....right?

That absolutely comes down to BWW's coding. Formatting is near universal on a modern OS. BWW operates on very outdated software and stacks quotes on top of quotes instead of only carrying over the most recent.

"Even during Trump's first term, while I'm sure there are a few who declined, there was no problem finding distinguished honorees and high-profile peers to celebrate them. The difference this year is that Trump has seized the Kennedy Center, and the Honors, to be used as a tool to celebrate him and his garbage values."

Excellent point and thanks for noting it.

"show her picture to 10 people on the street and zero will know who she is, saying she is a star is laughable "

Any bets that I could show picture of Kelli O'Hara on the street and nobody will be able to tell you who she is, and she is a true Broadway star.

Do a google and ask if Laura Osnes is a "Broadway star" - see AI response below. Nobody is going to compare her to Audra, Chenowith, Idina and others but before controversy she was just not some "run of the mill" performer.

"Yes, Laura Osnes is widely considered a Broadway star, known for originating and starring in major roles like Sandy in Grease, Cinderella in Cinderella, Nellie Forbush in South Pacific, and Bonnie in Bonnie & Clyde, earning her two Tony Award nominations and critical acclaim for her "ingénue" roles with an underlying strength, solidifying her status in the Broadway community"

"Star" is something granted by people, not Google's AI Bot. So no... she is not a star. She is a person who has been on Broadway and then ruined her career and is no longer on Broadway. Maybe she could have been, but she snuffed that out before she got out of her ingenue phase so the world may never know. And before we make statements of Bias, Christine Ebersole is absolutely insane. Still a Broadway Star.

She hasn't been on Broadway in nearly a decade and there are a thousand other actors who do exactly what she used to do on a Broadway stage. She was nothing special and was very easily replaced. New York theater lost nothing when she moved to MAGA Heights, USA.

One of my favorite moments of my life was when I tweeted that I couldn’t wait to see Laura Osnes and Zachary Levi in a production of The Last 5 Years at a dinner theatre in Montana and she blocked me.

Google 'bot says "known for originating..." then proceeds to list three out of four roles in revivals where she's not even in the top five names known for the roles. 😅
