Rzadko sie zgadzam z tekstami publikowanymi w #BusinessInsider, ale z tym jak z malo ktorym - juz naprawde wolalbym zeby wrocily oplaty na autostradach niz zeby mi dowalili kolejny cudaczny podatek albo znowu podniesli ceny benzyny
Inna sprawa, ze platny obecnie odcinek Kato - Krakow to jeden wielki, niekonczacy sie od lat remont, wiec cos tu sie odrobine nie spina 🤔
Earlier this week, #BusinessInsider reported that according to app analytics firm #Apptopia, Threads now has more daily active users in the #US than #X.
Le piste #ciclabili portano beneficio agli affari dei negozi.
#businessInsider raccoglie quella che ormai è una enorme pila di studi a dimostrazione di questo fatto.
I risultati dicono che in media, l'effetto sugli affari è tra il nullo e il positivo. L'eliminazione di quelli che sono pochi #parcheggi, non ha effetto.
Solo alcune categorie peggiorano, come i benzinai.
Ma il vero beneficio è per tutti, con quartieri più belli e vivibili.
And the media massacre continues. Business Insider will be laying off 8% of its staff. In 25 years of keeping tabs on the media landscape, I have never seen such a vile and systematic corporate assault on working journalists such as the moves we have seen in the last three weeks. What this means, of course, is that those who still have their jobs will increasingly be sycophants who pull their punches.
At Springer, Accurate Reporting Can Get You Investigated
The spectacle of the German media giant Axel Springer investigating one of its US media outlets for reporting truthful information about a wealthy and influential pro-Israel couple is a startling demonstration of the impact of the conglomerate's explicit ideological agenda (FAIR.org, 11/5/21).
News organizations seldomly see their reporting publicly called into question by their parent companies. But that rare and embarrassing scrutiny is precisely what #German publishing powerhouse Axel Springer has treated its financial-focused U.S. outlet, Business Insider, to."
Just by way of connecting some dots - billionaires to billionaires - who own big things that we may read #AxelSpringer purchased #BusinessInsider for $450M in 2015 and bought #Politico in August 2021. There are very very few "independent" publishers and publications. I certainly cannot compete with billionaires, but my sites have always been free, owned and published/edited by me, 28 yrs (the collies claim rights for all the typos - they are typo driven ;-> https://www.llrx.com; https://www.
After billionaire Bill Ackman threatened that #BusinessInsider would “go bankrupt and be liquidated” after it published a report on allegations of plagiarism against his wife--allegations similar to the ones Ackman used to get Claudine Gay fired as president of Harvard. #AxelSpringer, BI's owner, said it would investigate the "motivation and the process" behind the factually accurate article.
It wasn't just Ottawa: #MicrosoftTravel published a whole bushel of absurd articles, including the notorious Ottawa guide recommending that tourists dine at the #Ottawa#FoodBank ("go on an empty stomach"):
If you'd like an essay-formatted version of this thread to read or share, here's a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog:
There was the article recommending that visitors to Montreal try "a hamburger" and went on to explain that a hamburger was a "sandwich comprised of a ground beef patty, a sliced bun of some kind, and toppings such as lettuce, tomato, cheese, etc" and that some of the best hamburgers in Montreal could be had at McDonald's.
This may be related to the recent implosion of #Twitter. #BusinessInsider reported a couple weeks back that they have not been paying their #GoogleCloud bills and that those services would be going down at the turn of the month. Now, that is.
