Morgan Spurlock Reality 'Leaking' Isn't Treason ... It Would Be a Great Doc!

Published | Updated

Morgan Spurlock is applauding Reality Winner for "stepping up" to help Americans get closer to the truth ... even though she's been charged with leaking a classified NSA document.

We got the "Super Size Me" filmmaker at LAX, and he was very candid about Winner's arrest. He stopped short of calling it BS, but said he thinks government whistleblowers are a necessity these days ... especially if it relates to Russia.

As for what happens to Winner going forward -- Morgan will be keeping a close eye, because he'd love to tag-team with an Oscar-winning documentarian to tell her story.

Ghost Ship Fire Landlord Arrested for Fatal Blaze

Published | Updated

Derick Almena, the landlord at the Oakland warehouse that went up in flames, killing 36 people, has been arrested for the fire.

Alameda County prosecutors announced Almena's arrest -- along with Max Harris, who was reportedly a tenant at the art commune known as the Ghost Ship.

Both men are being charged with 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter. The District Attorney says they "knowingly created a fire trap." His bond is set at $1,080,000.

The warehouse burned down in December during an EDM concert. Based on photos and videos, the building was packed with tons of old art pieces, furniture and wooden cargo pallets -- all of which fueled the flames.

Almena had angrily claimed the building was "up to code" during an interview on NBC's 'Today.'

One Love Manchester More Than 50,000 Came ... Only 1 Arrested

Published | Updated

Ariana Grande's One Love Manchester concert had nearly 50,000 united in song as they left the show -- all except one guy ... who left in handcuffs.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ out of the massive crowd at the Old Trafford cricket ground, police made just the one arrest. We're told the bloke was busted for drunk and disorderly conduct.

The sole perp was arrested in the middle of audience after he started to get disruptive. Cops hauled him away before anything got out of hand. The fact it didn't -- in such a large crowd -- shows the mood in Manchester was all about compassion.

In this case ... one bad apple did NOT spoil the whole bunch.

CRASH AFTERMATH

3:06 PM PT -- A rep for Derek and Gloria tells TMZ Sports ... "On behalf of Derek Fisher and Gloria Govan, they would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. They are beyond grateful that they are both okay and that no one else was involved. Both Derek and Gloria are home and ask that you respect their privacy."

Derek Fisher was arrested on suspicion of DUI Sunday after crashing his car on the 101 Freeway following a night out at Catch in West Hollywood ... and the wreckage looks gnarly.

Derek's Cadillac flipped over just after 3 AM PT Sunday as he was heading northbound on the Ventura 101 Freeway. His passenger was "Basketball Wives" star Gloria Govan. Neither Derek nor Gloria were injured.

Derek was then arrested and jailed after it was determined he'd been drinking. The car wreck could have been deadly from how badly the car had flipped ... based on video obtained by TMZ Sports.

CHP officials say Derek veered into the paved right shoulder of the 101 just east of the 405 interchange. He collided with the raised concrete curb and guardrail, which flipped his car over once. Luckily, the crash left both Derek and Gloria unscathed.

We got Derek Saturday night leaving Catch at 11:45 PM, but he crashed at 3 AM. He apparently picked up Gloria after dinner, because she wasn't at Catch. He and Gloria have been an open couple since March.

Tiger Woods Struggles with Breathalyzer 'Don't Suck It, Blow Out!'

Published | Updated

Tiger Woods was still so out of it 2 and a half hours after cops pulled him over for DUI ... he stumbled and mumbled his way through breathalyzer testing.

Police released video of Woods back at the station at 4:30 AM Monday. The woman tasked with testing him had to whistle and wave in Woods' face just to get him to open his eyes. Explaining the steps to take the test wasn't easy either.

Multiple times she has to tell him not to suck, but blow into the tube.

As we've reported ... Tiger ultimately blew .000 -- supporting his statement he was not drinking. However, this video -- just like the images of him attempting field sobriety testing -- makes it clear he had no business being behind the wheel. He says he had a bad reaction to combining prescription meds.

The sole light-hearted moment -- Tiger describing his hair color as "mostly brown and fading and ... brown." Even the cop had to laugh.

YOU KNOW WHY WE STOPPED YOU?

The incident took place roughly 8 miles from Tiger's home in Jupiter, FL. An obviously disoriented Woods told cops he believed he was in L.A. ... driving toward Orange County.
