How to boycott Nexstar:

• ⁠Look up Nexstar owned stations
• ⁠Watch what ads show up
• ⁠Contact the advertisers about your concerns/boycott them
• ⁠They are way more amenable to pressure about pulling their support from Nexstar

Just to be blunt, if you want Wired and 404 and The Verge to employ reporters who understand the memes on bullet casings and can connect them to gaming culture while having the legal and support resources to deal with waves of harassment when we do it… you have to subscribe and pay for the work
the entire media ecosystem is just not built or ready for events like this and far right billionaires like larry ellison buying news orgs will only make this worse

The moment GOP seized SCOTUS in 2016 (refusing Obama’s Garland pick), I knew it was over for the U.S. It was the last & strongest pillar of political apartheid for GOP to cement.

The recent SCOTUS rulings were the final tipping point to me. The lower judiciary has been holding up reasonably well, but now SCOTUS has simply decided damn the Constitution we will rule in Trump’s favor is n all cases. In effect, suspending the Constitution.

The moment he got back into office was the end. This man should have been in prison for the rest of his life, not returned to power. But our media again saved scrutiny for Dems, not considering him attempting a coup, being a rapist and stealing secrets as disqualifying.

These are literally Nazis.

Understand this: Despite public calls to release the Epstein files—as Trump promised to do—Trump has refused and instead:
•Demands Washington Commanders change their name back to R*dskins
•Posted AI generated video of Obama being arrested in the White House

Full court press to insist that CBS firing Colbert mere days after he criticized Paramount for bribing the president is just coincidence, after they paid a bribe to end a bad faith lawsuit against 60 Minutes—also coincidence—and the corrupt president crowed about it because, you got it, coincidence.
The news that CBS had canceled “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” prompted plenty of speculation about the network’s motivations. But “the underlying point is clear”: late-night TV has lost its value, David Sims argues: https://theatln.tc/IOcxZNKr
