We found that of the local newspapers covering the story on A1, their editors did a much better job choosing prominent placement, headlines, &coverage.
There are pro-democracy editors at @inquirer.com Kennebec Journal @thenewmexican.bsky.social who all received "A" grades
See the difference?

It ought to be a huge story when a President refuses to affirm his oath to uphold the Constitution. Trump's "I don't know" interview warranted substantial #FrontPage coverage
NYT/WaPo/WSJ gave it minimal A1 coverage
Local outlets did much better!

Fourth Estate Dereliction of Duty: Influential Newspaper Editors Normalize President Trump’s Refusal To Affirm His Oath To Defend the Constitution. A case study.
New York Times, Washington Post & Wall Street Journal editors did not make Trump’s “I don’t know” interview a front page story. Several local editors did give it prominence and did a better job.

Trump Offers to Pay Immigrants Who Deport Themselves
The administration says the program to pay migrants $1,000 once their travel home is confirmed will save money because of how expensive it is to find, detain and deport people.

The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy.
These 19 households now control $2.6 trillion in wealth — almost as much wealth as the bottom 50% of American households.
If this isn't an oligarchy, what is?

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

Former journalist here. This is IMPORTANT.
When you're telling people about your protest plans, include your local media!

This sucks, but also means if you want coverage, contact your paper in advance of an action. Give them quotes. Send them to folks to interview.
We did this for the NOAA protests and got wall to wall coverage for a week, with frontpages, opeds, and followups.
