Liberals have a level of media illiteracy that drives me up a wall. It’s almost as bad as the right thinking every media org is a part of the DNC.

Yes, using Times games contributes to their revenue and funds pro-racist journalism. Quit fucking lying to yourself.

The New York Times wrote a hit piece on Mamdani based on the work of a racist. Please to continue enjoying your Wordle and crosswords I guess.

there's a culture of fear in the median ranks of media to report and comment on this because journalists believe it would jeopardize their chances of working at the new york times
“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

Next week in the Times: 'Questions swirl as Mamdani refuses to release his skull measurements.'

George W Bush didn’t go to Fox News to sell the Iraq War. He went to the New York Times, the Washington Post and your old buddy Tim Russert on Meet the Press on NBC. Those are the media problems AND Fox.

This is liberal media illiteracy. Fox wishes it had the reach of the NYT. If it did, Republicans would win every election with 80% of the vote.
Incorrect. Fox is played in millions of homes every fucking day. It is in every military installation, it is on in all VA hospitals, it's in most bars and millions of waiting rooms. They have sports programming that hundreds of millions watch every day and their news stays on after. The NYT,

The key to surviving in Islamabad is adding shock value. Jese if someone says you're PTI supporter when you criticise PMLN or a patwari otherwise, you just say you support Muttahida and see their jaw drop and colour change. Then you go about your bz as they froth at the mouth 🤪

Some day, Sunni folks will write Fahaza Ali un Maula alongside Man Kunto Maula as they enjoy renditions, but I don't think that will happen ✌🏽🙂‍↔️

The airport in Aleppo is a graveyard of planes and choppers. Many are old, but there are also some only recently destroyed vehicles.

The airport was swarmed by drones shortly before rebels moved into Aleppo and disabled most of any aerial counterattacks.

A good business idea for Pakistan in these tough times would be to export instruction manuals on fascism, how to really stage coups, undermining democracy 101, fueling xenophobia, and similar themes. Maybe we can strengthen our economy that way 🙂‍↕️

Finally watched #BuyNow and suddenly hyper aware of plastic about myself. Thankfully, being raised as a middle-class Pakistani helps in not buying in excess and not indulging in wasting, but the industries are so complicit that no greenwashing or tiny pledges can save our future

Love train stations so much because of how invincible they make you feel, all the best story ideas, like standing at Köln HBF, thinking about a great feature on Peter Cat Recording, whattay life ❤️

Screenshot of a video shared by PTI shows Imran Khan's wife Bushra Bibi and KP CM Ali Amin Gandapur on top of a container somewhere near Hazro, Punjab.

In this video, a child is throwing stick onto the dead passengers, and one man is trying to kick the van. In a normal place, people would rush to help and assist, but yeah, sure, call it v plain and simple 'land feud' even when those on the ground say it is more complex than that

Where is humanity? Where are the so-called great Pashtun "rewayat"? For what reason, & on whose behalf, is this being done? Shame on you and the beliefs that drive you to take the lives of innocent people. In this difficult time I stand with Shia community. I know I can do nothing but stand with you

A convoy traveling from Parachinar to Peshawar was attacked by terrorists. The death toll has risen to 39 including kids & women, 50+ injured. Sources say there were prior warnings yet the convoy was attacked under the nose of LEAs. Attacks and looting in Bagan, Mandori, and Uchit continue

D-Chowk #Islamabad gathering strength to be contained 3 days ahead of #PTI #FinalProtest

In other countries, these containers would line up for shipment, but in #Pakistan we have loads to prevent people from their right to protest ✌🏽
