Ok, SUPER-interesting article on independent journalism, with a LOT of links to (presumably) good independent journalists that I will probably wind up adding to my feed reader (and which be worthwhile recipients of Signal and/or email messages at some point in the future).

You won't see this interview on mainstream news media.
Reporter - "#Maccabi #hooligans threw bottles at the pro-#Palestinians. Did the police intervene?"
Man 1- "No. #Police told us to go away. Told us you shouldn't be here."
Reporter - "So police blamed you instead?"
Man 2 - "Yes."
From Alabama to Wisconsin, Black community leaders are bracing themselves for more waves of hate, harassment, and threats.
“We know how to see a Confederate flag coming and take cover, but for an open-minded, educated, well-intentioned white person … who think they are woke and know how to speak for us, that’s actually more threatening to me than some Trump idiots because the Trump idiots may ride down the street, but they’re not really controlling policy. There are folks who don’t know Black people, and they’re making policies concerning us, which could be just as dangerous as what Trump does.”

What are your thoughts on supporting local news organizations?
I know a lot of local stations, papers, etc. have been consolidated, but I'm looking to change a subscription I have to something independent, whether local or national
to give you an idea on my "lean", I've previously supported #NPR (specifically, my local station #WOSU) and #ProPublica
What are your thoughts?
"Independent journalism for independent thinking", says The Economist. Meanwhile in the real world:
"three tobacco companies, which own some of the world’s most popular cigarette brands including Marlboro, Benson & Hedges, Dunhill & Pall Mall, have multimillion-dollar contracts with Economist Impact, extending to editorial coverage, which commonly has a pro-tobacco angle, & event sponsorship."

For years, it appeared that #Democrats had retreated into what seemed like a permanent defensive position.
But now with their campaign, Vice President #KamalaHarris and Governor #TimWalz are rejecting the limited framework of what has heretofore been possible and showing there is absolutely another way, and that's to go on the offensive.

There's a growing contingent of Christians who've come out to support Vice President #KamalaHarris and Governor #timwalz whose values hew more closely to theirs than the treasonous, philandering felon.
#Evangelicals for Harris could motivate a needed voting bloc for the #Democrats and help defuse the drumbeat of dominion that has harmed churches, threatened our #Democracy and damaged the faith of many Americans.

Across #socialmedia content targeting boys and young men is a noxious stew of toxic masculinity.
It's why the Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz feels like a gift for many parents raising sons.

Despite #KamalaHarris and #TimWalz campaign exciting voters in ways we haven’t seen since 2008, the #media continues to rely on Trump to frame all their #election2024 coverage.
@Athenae takes the American political media to task in her latest column.
The November election presents a stark choice between two visions for America.
On one side, an autocratic regime, consolidating power in the presidency, and dangerously rearranging every lever in the federal administration.
The other, a government led by #KamalaHarris and #TimWalz, that supports personal #freedom, #democracy, body autonomy and #EqualRights for all.
@gothamgirlblue on the stark choice.

The #media has sadly long focused on the "Trump voter in diner" narrative.
But with #Kamala Harris's newly minted presidential campaign injecting the 2024 race with a much needed dose of enthusiasm among Dems, we wanted to hear from long-time #Harris supporters on the race for the Oval Office.

Trump’s ghoulish VP pick is awful at selling the GOP’s terrifyingly regressive platform.
He’s even worse at taking potshots at VP #KamalaHarris and her exciting #presidential campaign.

Voters want a steady hand at the wheel who not only knows how to course-correct on our country’s deeply problematic past, but offers a hopeful vision on how to navigate our very complex future.
We have a perfect candidate in Vice President #KamalaHarris a Black South Asian woman with an excellent résumé who absolutely can win the presidency in 2024. Here's why:

@tofugolem cause maga is mean and they will attack like rabid chihuahuas if the media gets within rifle range of fair or balanced. Media babies are afraid. they may get fweewings hurt by the big bad bullies. And their bosses are oligarchs and they may get fired. So that fear is real. #independentjournalism is so needed.
Trump said he passed the largest tax cuts ever.
Correction: He passed the largest CORPORATE tax cuts in U.S. history.
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cglk87d817zo
My cynical side wonders if that's why corporate media coverage seems to go soft on Trump and hard on Biden.
Which, in turn, reminds me of the value of independent journalism.
Legacy #media is (again) determined to legitimize a convicted criminal and undermine the candidacy of an effective president.
Nothing that happens to #Trump can be anything but great for Trump. If he delivers a speech without digressing into open racism, without threatening someone, he’s adopting a “new tone,” with no regard to his past acts, outbursts or lies
Corporate media has an insidious predilection to normalize Trump.
