There is no way. I don’t see how this isn’t pure bullshit they didn’t know the meaning.

A journalist almost takes responsibility for the misinformed public: "Many commentators...blame the media for the public’s economic illiteracy." But then she turns the blame on us: "If the media has a bad-news bias, that’s because our audiences have a bad-news bias, too." Journalists are incapable of meaningful self-reflection, incapable of taking responsibility.

@jeffjarvis so, are they saying journalists just give people what they want or just tell them what they want to hear?

Space: 1999 Mattel playset featuring the “Astro-flash Computer”. Basically a blinking lightbulb. 😂 As kids we didnt care but I admit I never saw this playset growing up. 🤖

Commercial from the 70’s of two boys playing with Space:1999 action figures and a Main Missions playset.

@gedeonm IMO, even though I’m more of a kid of the 80s, toys peaked in the 1970s.

I’ve been on a real SpaghettiOs kick lately. Brings me right back to when I was a kid. I’m sure I’ll get over it soon but at the moment it’s super comforting. 😌

@gedeonm A few months ago I tried the same with Beanie Weenies, but it just didn’t hit the same with my current tastes.
