I suspect that individual reporters would, but unfortunately, the rich oligarchs who own the mediaβ€”WAPO, LATimes, CBS, etc. don’t want to rock the boat, jeopardize their $$$$ or status or think it’s funny or great!

Why is this horrendous story not on the evening news? @abcnewsbot.bsky.social @nbcnews.com

Perhaps our corporate executives should take note of what happens to their ilk in Purim’s Russia.

Anyway, now we know what the FCC thinks is in the public interest:

Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes

ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

Totally right! Suck-up corporate media doesn’t care about anything other than their status and bottom line.

β€œShitting on everything” sums Trump, et al, up perfectly.

Wonder what Lincoln would think about soldiers from South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee patrolling the streets of DC.

A country that confirms agency heads with β€œopinions” like this, and prints them without comment in a major newspaper is not one you can trust, period.

Court’s Ruling in Skrmetti Threatens All Care That’s Politically Contested β€” Assigned An anti-trans, anti-science decision relies on a history of discrimination against women, and opens the door to challenges on care like vaccines.

The decision in Skrmetti lets politicians create their own evidence to justify banning necessary healthcare.

It's bad, writes @evanurquhart.bsky.social. Not just for trans people, but for anyone whose healthcare is or could potentially be politically contested.

Wait, thought Miller/GOP hated regulations. Think they love lead, too, especially in peoples’ water.

Paid in self- respect. Something no MAGA would have even a concept of.

Sen. Rick Scott should be good at pinpointing fraud and abuse since he was so good at perpetuating it during his stint at HCA.

To the β€œwriter” of this paragraph: Do you write this kind of tripe just to fuck with people’s minds? Is it click bait? Or in some small area of your brain do do you believe it? Yeah, it’s β€œstarkly different” alright. It’s totally insane and unconstitutional!

That’s probably why they want to bring in all those SA Africaaners to take over the farms.
