And thanks a lot, ABC News. You spineless "obey in advance" cowards galvanized the madman with that $15 million settlement. He's now able to sue any newspaper into oblivion for reporting the truth. Last I heard, reporting a survey WASN'T defamation.

It's mind-blowing to me that these flagrant assaults on free speech by dint of authoritarianism aren't being properly framed by media. Profit over Fourth Estate integrity.

"Reading these stories was never about inviting pain, frustration, or dismay for the sake of it. Nor, I suspect, was that the case for the writers who crafted them. As Aziza suggests, witnessing is about opening ourselves up to possibility."

Mad respect to Sarah Jeong, who is live posting on BlueSky from South Korea about the coup while incredibly inebriated.

"One of the world’s most influential global investigative news organizations, whose work has regularly produced political shockwaves, has been primarily funded since its launch by the United States government, according to a review of budget documents, audit reports, and interviews with its founder and government funders.

In the world of investigative journalism, the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) is a known quantity: a nonprofit news outlet backed by civic-minded philanthropists—a ProPublica, but for global corruption. “Investigative reporting has to be a global phenomenon. It takes a network to fight a network of corruption. And OCCRP is that network,” said Drew Sullivan, co-founder and head of OCCRP. "It's the most important investigative reporting organization you've never heard of.”

What has thus far been obscured from the public is the magnitude of its government funding and the strings attached to it. OCCRP’s founding and most generous donor, the one responsible for a majority of the organization’s budget, is the government of the United States and within the government, the largest donor is USAID—the U.S. Agency for International Development."

“[Summarization tools incorporated into the search engines are] a boon for people seeking quick answers, but a bane for publishers. Disincentivizing curious users from clicking through to a news site for additional information—a trend called zero-click search—sends less traffic to media outlets that invest in the costly #reporting that #AI machines are scraping, strip-mining, and synthesizing.”

Desperately need a news site that you can choose to enter the version NOT showing any US election stuff.

We've been living in the drama for months. I'm not saying stop, it's really important, but a version where you can just see The Actual News would be great.
