How Jeff Bezos Brought Down the Washington Post
What #investigative #journalists are currently digging through all the new Epstein files?
The #newspaper has been bleeding subscribers in part due to decisions made by #Bezos — pulling an #endorsement of #KamalaHarris, a Democrat, during the 2024 presidential election against #Trump, a Republican, & directing a more #conservative turn on #liberal opinion pages.

A Post representative confirmed that one-third of the staff would be cut, without saying how many total employees the #newspaper has.
The newspaper’s #books department will be closed, & its Washington-area #news department & #editing staff will be restructured, Murray told staff members. Its Post Reports podcast will be suspended.

The staff reduction is a significant psychic blow at the Post, known in history books for its #Watergate revelations & most recently for aggressive coverage of #Trump’s cutbacks to the federal workforce, & for #journalism in general.
Staff members in the #newsroom were told they would be getting emails with one of two subject lines, announcing that the person’s role has or hasn’t been eliminated.

The #WashingtonPost is laying off ONE-THIRD of its staff in the #newsroom & other departments, a brutal blow at one of #journalism’s most legendary brands.
The troubled Post began implementing large-scale cutbacks on Wednesday, including eliminating its sports department & shrinking the number of #journalists it stations overseas. The changes were announced by executive editor Matt Murray in a Zoom meeting with staff.

TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ATTACK ON THE FREE PRESS AND THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KNOW

It seems abundantly clear to me that Trump and his staff just do things without any regard to whether or not those things are legal and constitutional. Then the people who are abused by these practices have to go to court to PROVE that what the Trump administration is doing is illegal. It is perfectly sociopathic.

I do not want, in any way, to minimize the extremely serious problems in #Canada's #grocery industry; it is far too vertically integrated, also true on the global food production level.
That said, can we all please think back to 2020-2022? How governments the world over opened the spigots and printed money, trying to avoid a recession while also galvanizing response to #COVID-19?
Runaway inflation was extremely likely.
Except wages.
#Journalists need to mention this.
When #journalists are not looking for a signing bonus but a #security detail.
It looks related to me. It looks related to the #war on truth that the Trump administration is waging.

Gaza’s next generation of journalists
Nahed Hajjaj, 26, has already survived Israeli bombings and lost close friends. But he is determined to keep reporting as a journalist in Gaza.
“I wanted to work in media because, to be honest, this country needs me,” Hajjaj told Al Jazeera.
The International Federation of Journalists reports that Palestine was the deadliest place to work as a journalist in 2025, with 56 Palestinian media professionals killed. Since Israel’s war broke out, nearly 300 journalists and media workers have been killed in Gaza.

Journalists know that ppl only read headlines, so a sneaky trick they use to shift opinion without actually lying is the "headline as suggestive question" thing.
So for ex:
"Did Diotima Embezzle Instance Funds?"
...now ofc in the story it would say no (the instance is paid for by Dio so that's sort of impos) but bc of how ppl read and process, it becomes:
"Diotima Embezzled Instance Funds"
In ppl's minds. That's just how most ppl process, psychologically.
And YES, journos know this is a thing. It's part of journo 101, literally. This is why u RLY need to be aware of these things; u RLY need to read the fking stories, and u RLY need to actively train urself to not do this.
BC tbh? Propaganda isn't necessary when "just asking Qs" will do.

As a nation, we face a decisive moment. Trust the #journalists who witness tyranny at street level.

Amid the stream of coverage of state-sponsored violence you may have missed the stories of the journalists arrested, detained or roughed up.
@cassolotl so basically a #Sneakernet system where everyone just has messages and files fully encrypted and they get manually transported point-to-point in a decentralized mesh topology?

Makes sense...
This is basically how #Journalists get footage from #NorthKorea and how reporters do get footage out if places like that and #Iran…
