Almost two weeks ago, I found out I was one of 40 people getting laid off from NBC News.
Those who know me know I’ve wanted to go independent for a long time. Later this month, I’m launching @spitfirenews.com. We need journalism that is louder than ever.

need reiterate the permanence of this belief. in social media comments, facebook posts, memes and podcast eps, in livestreams and everywhere else, they will say the government paid for positive coverage in the "liberal media." it's an exhausting new fact birthed from virtually nothing.
this appears to be based entirely on subscriptions for Politico Pro that many govt agencies pay for. but it doesn't matter, this is now fact for roughly half the country for eternity and will be used to do whatever they want.
