    More than almost any other site I check frequently, @niemanlab embeds tweets in its stories. This means -- since I refuse to support Musk's anti-democracy and anti-journalism company -- I miss much of the content, since I allow Privacy Badger to block Twitter content.

    There are ways to show the tweet content -- paste in screenshots, for example -- that don't support the deadbird site. It's a shame that Nieman Lab won't take that minimum step.

    Journalist: "So what do you think long-distance air travel is going to look like in 2050?"

    Climate Scientist laughs derisively: "By 2050, most long-distance holiday destinations will be uninhabitable, so I expect the majority of long-distance air traffic to be non-existent by 2050."

    Phew. Hadn't heard it THAT bleakly during a live interview yet.

    It is odd, to put it mildly, that the Pulitzer Prizes will be awarded today at Columbia University, which has encouraged police to shut down journalism about the over-the-top police response to protests...

    Elon is saying he will relocate X's headquarters if Aaron Peskin is elected as the next mayor of San Francisco. The irony is that there's a good chance that his threat will help Peskin's campaign.

    Wherever I find right-wing violence, I find journalists getting attacked. Their hatred of journalism stems from a hatred of facts; they prefer information come from authority than reporting.

    If they had their way, journalism as a profession would be gone except for the propagandists who lie on their behalf. (which is not journalism anyway)

    Hah, I wanted to share this article from It's FOSS News on here but don't want to cause the issue they describe in it, so I won't link to it directly.

    They only mention in this article, but would this not be a wider issue on most platforms?

    Here's the link broken up:
