Stop what you're doing right now and read this. @ryanjhaas.bsky.social reports that a new hell has reached Oregon - an entire newspaper that is run by AI, poaching the identities of real journalists to look like it has a staff, and repurposing the work of reporters (including yours truly).

Trump wants to appoint Hegseth. Newsmax staff has questions. Trump contacts Newsmax and complains. Newsmax tells staff to STFU or be fired.
Who saw Newsmax becoming State run media before the inauguration? And before Fox? But I guess Fox has been MAGA state-run media since 2016.
