Mamdani had a great line in the debate with Cuomo about how what he lacks in experience he makes up for with integrity but that no amount of experience can substitute for integrity. Seems apt.

In the last decade, the BBC has legitimised climate change denialism, paved the way for Brexit, defended the coup that was prorogation, over-platformed Farage's Far Right projects, and is neutral on our abandonment of human rights norms.

What is this 'good' it supposedly does?

A lot of journalists are basically cops but somehow even more insufferable because they think they're Woodward and Bernstein in All the President's Men...

The next great depression will manifest as a series of struggle meals viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to what you’re currently eating until you’re the one filming it.

I mean, it's the internet. We're all just giving our unsolicited opinions here. You also don't have to go to bat for terrible employers hanging people out to dry in a dying industry.

Weird to blame the audience and not the publication deliberately baiting them and then hiding the piece behind a paywall...

Very true and pairs extremely well with this (which I'm pretty sure you've seen):

Is it just downstream of journalists all still being on Twitter (perhaps even more outside of the anglophone world at this point)?

The rest of the article is similarly lazy trash that I won't link to. It's an attempt to restart the clock as if the last two years never happened--all while Palestinians continue to die every day in Gaza, the West Bank and elsewhere. The author (Elisabeth Bumiller) should be embarrassed.

Presumably all the Palestinians or uhhhh "Israeli Arabs" who oppose these moves are standing next to the journalist, just out of frame...

Not quite. It preserves the filibuster as a perennial alibi for do-nothing democrats: the perfect outcome for these people.

I was about to say... I thought you couldn't do anything without the risk management office going off about reputational risks so where are they on this but it sounds like someone may have already thought of that...

A new era of product placement where universities are absolutely determined to get their branding into the court filings for the wrongful death suits, floating right above the bot telling the kids to kill themselves...
