"Ale proč zrovna Molavcová?"
"Ani nevím, člověče. Já ji v plánu neměla. Ale pak mi ji připomněla Olga Sommerová ve filmu Klaunka [...] Já si u toho dokumentu uvědomila, že mě vždycky nějakým způsobem inspirovala. Už od dětství. Nikdy není nudná. Hraje na plno. Vzbuzuje emoce. Zhlédla jsem Klaunku, sedla na zadek a začala kreslit. Jenže mi to vůbec nešlo..."

The otherwise apparently intelligent and educated Americans like Ben Smith of #Semafor that fall for Russian disinfo puzzle me.

He is still falsely suggesting that the dossier was the genesis of the public concern about Trump’s ties to Russia. @emptywheel https://www.emptywheel.net/2023/04/21/ben-smith-still-doesnt-understand-he-peddled-likely-russian-disinformation/

“Twitter is no longer taking steps to limit the reach of Chinese and Russian state-controlled media outlets, violating the social media platform’s own stated policies.”

Sir! Sir! The committee investigating #Tiktok is saying that the call is coming FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!

Pensioners paying the price for #Republican #CultureWars

“In the culture wars over sustainable investing, we’ve arrived at the backlash to the backlash.

Last year, Republican-controlled legislatures began passing laws blacklisting state investment funds from doing business with money managers that pushed what they deemed to be liberal agendas, like boycotting gun manufacturers and mining companies.”

Controversy and millions lost in #Spotify‘s march to dominate #podcasting

“Instead, the company looked to tamp down internal dissent. After one particularly charged #Rogan blowup in 2021 (he said of Caitlyn Jenner that “maybe if you live with crazy bitches long enough, they fucking turn you into one,”)”

“OpenAI has ramped up its hiring around the world, bringing on roughly 1,000 remote contractors over the past six months.

40% are computer programmers who are creating data for OpenAI’s models to learn software engineering tasks.

OpenAI appears to be building a dataset that includes not just lines of code, but also the human explanations behind them written in natural language.”

#Hell Is #Other #People, Specifically the #People at #Davos
Semafor’s all-in coverage makes me want to stick my head in a woodchipper.

#Billionaires and #multimillionaires alike gathered in #Davos, #Switzerland, this week for their annual confab in the land of their most cherished bank accounts

Enter #Semafor, the #urine-#colored #news site launched by Ben Smith and Justin Smith (no relation) in October.

Goodness me, #Semafor puts #Chevron ad next to climate story, editor raises concerns, then the two part company with different stories. As the article notes: this is what a few million dollars in sponsorship from #BigOil will by. I am truly concerned about the state of #Journalism in our times. https://heated.world/p/semafor-climate-editor-leaves-over

@IzzyG2020 if your search is not fruitful I recommend acknowledging that Mastodon is not Twitter, there are separate sources available for news.

Shout out to #semafor (https://semafor.com)

#ClimateChange journalist Emily Atkin doesn’t only address the failures of #Semafor but also media outlets overall. “I am so tired of our nation’s most powerful and reputable media outlets refusing to engage with legitimate journalistic questions about the harmful impact of their #FossilFuel advertising, both on their readers and on their own reputation.” One would hope Spindle’s departure as #Climate Editor would be cause for reflection, but I am doubt it will. https://t.co/WofuidS5ht
