Author: Sierra Foster

Born in Kansas City, Sierra Foster writes about politics and serves as Senior Editor at kbsd6.com. She was raised paying attention to this city, not just living in it. Sierra has a strong, deep connection to Kansas City, from the neighborhoods east of Troost to the discussions that take place in the city hall halls. Sierra, who is presently enrolled at the University of Kansas to pursue a degree in Political Science, applies the rigor of academic study to her journalism. She writes about politics in Missouri and Kansas as someone who genuinely cares about what happens to the people in these communities—the policies that impact them, the leaders who represent them, and the civic forces influencing their futures—rather than as an outsider watching from a distance. Her editorial coverage encompasses state-level policy, local government, and the national political currents that permeate bi-state regional life. Whether it's a city council vote or a Senate race, she has a special gift for turning complex policy language into writing that feels urgent, relatable, and worthwhile. Sierra seldom sits still off the page. She claims that playing soccer on a regular basis has sharpened her instincts for political reporting because of the sport's teamwork, strategy, and requirement to read a changing game in real time. She's probably somewhere in Kansas City with her friends when she's not writing or on the pitch, discovering new reasons to adore a city she already knows so well.

The response to Prime Video’s announcement of a new television version of Stephen King’s Carrie was, to put it mildly, mixed. The story was previously told with Sissy Spacek in 1976, as a television film in 2002, and with Chloë Grace Moretz in 2013. The announcement was accompanied by a certain weariness. However, something changed when the cast list began to come together.

The fact that Ralph Macchio is the richest actor in Cobra Kai has a somewhat poetic quality. In 1984, he was the underdog. He was the young man with a beat-up bicycle, no money, and no connections. With an estimated net worth of about $8 million, he is at the top of the cast’s wealth rankings decades later. He got there by never truly going away. Macchio, who portrays Daniel LaRusso in the Netflix revival, has amassed wealth over the course of a career spanning more than forty years. My Cousin Vinny, The Outsiders, and years of consistent television work…

Susan Dell is sixty-two years old, which is a significant age if you have been following philanthropic news in the past year. Born in Dallas, Texas, to Zelig Zeck Lieberman and Marilyn Ely Lieberman, she was raised in a home influenced by Jewish principles, such as purpose, community service, and charitable giving. She appears to have carried those early lessons into every decade of her life. Susan Lieberman was an athlete before she rose to prominence as one of America’s most significant philanthropists. A serious one. At Arizona State University, where she studied fashion merchandising and design, she participated in…

In April, Jennifer Coffindaffer received the initial email. She remained silent in public. She waited with her head down and reported it to the FBI. After 28 years in federal law enforcement, you have that level of discipline: you don’t announce every development and you don’t let the noise overshadow the facts. However, the computation was completely altered when she learned that Nancy Guthrie’s neighbor had received something almost identical.

At one point in Cobra Kai, a group of teenagers engage in a karate riot that destroys an entire school. Teachers disperse. Lockers have buckles. The police are never called. According to the show, life in the San Fernando Valley seems to follow its own set of rules: a local under-18 karate competition has the moral authority of an international court, and adults frequently forfeit their jobs, families, and common sense in order to feed teenage resentment that began forty years ago. By most reasonable standards, it is utterly absurd. And yet. Since its YouTube Premium days, Cobra Kai has…

The majority of people first saw Gia Duddy on TV in April 2023 while watching the NFL Draft in Kansas City. Will Levis was waiting to hear his name called when cameras found her, as they always seem to find the girlfriend. She appeared both anxious and joyful, as people do when a significant event is about to occur for a loved one. The moment went by, followed by the next pick, and ultimately the evening came to an end without Levis reaching his destination. Duddy watched it all. It was the kind of moment that no one would recall…

In one version of this argument, the solution is straightforward: at the 1984 All Valley Under-18 Karate Championships, Daniel LaRusso simply kicked Johnny Lawrence in the face. Four decades of pop culture mythology, one tournament trophy, and one famous crane kick. The story is over. However, anyone familiar with this franchise will tell you that it was never that easy. Daniel lost the first real fight with Johnny. Badly. Daniel was on the ground as Johnny left the beach scene from The Karate Kid, which featured sand, sunlight, and a girl named Ali trapped between them. There was no referee,…

Reni Meyer-Whalley, a private individual by almost all standards, unexpectedly became the center of one of the most intimate discussions baseball has generated in recent memory for a few hours this week. On October 6, her boyfriend, pitcher Max Fried of the New York Yankees, told reporters that she was expecting their first child and that labor could occur at any time. Then, in a crucial Game 3 against the Tampa Bay Rays, he took the mound. As was to be expected, the internet felt something. However, Meyer-Whalley had a career of her own, which began on a volleyball court…

In one aspect of Sadie Stanley’s career, she remains cozy in the Disney bubble, adored, dependable, and perhaps a little underutilized. That was not the case. On May 30, 2025, Karate Kid: Legends hit theaters, bringing with it something noteworthy: a 23-year-old actress from South Carolina who appeared to have been given enough space to truly breathe on screen for the first time. Stanley portrays Mia Lipani, a teenage girl from New York who assists her father Victor, a former boxer played by Joshua Jackson, in running a pizzeria called Victory Pizza. Mia does not practice martial arts. She doesn’t…

When Mia Goth filed for divorce from Shia LaBeouf on October 6, 2026, the majority of headlines focused on his year, including his arrest at Mardi Gras, his guilty plea, and his collapsing public record. Frequently, her name was mentioned as “his wife.” She used the verb. As is often the case in these circumstances, the sentence belonged to someone else.
