#WaPo fans, when I share a gift link on Mastodon... it gets infinite re-use, right? Obviously they're trying to have it both ways, paywall + letting people promote WaPo content to non-subscribers

Apparently, journalists including part-time journalists and subject-matter journalists are in denial regarding expected layoffs from large media organizations including the NYT, WaPo, etc…

If you are a journalist, good luck.

How is this real

Twitter under Elon Musk's ownership has played a major role in allowing Russian propaganda about Ukraine to reach more people than before the war began, according to a year-long study released this week by the European Commission.

Trump and his co-defendants in Georgia have surrendered. Now what? - The Washington Post https://apple.news/A53HBNUMwQray3Qc7wS7M0g

#GaRICO #RICO #Trump #Georgia #WAPO

Note to the #wapo: You can’t surrender defiantly. Surrendering means you’re complying, not defying. If #giuliani wanted credit for defiance, he could have holed up and refused to let them take him alive. You can’t waltz in to your own arraignment, waltz out again and say “look at me, I’m so defiant!”

#Daily Reminder

The #WashingtonPost aka #WaPo is not always our friend

this idiot story is the LEAD on the webpage on the morning of Sunday 20 aug

I emailed the editor; you should to, to tell him what you think

you can email the wapo hear

#ThankYou for sharing this #WaPo overview of America. I wouldn’t have read it otherwise. It’s useful for sure.

The authors restate American myths old and new. One that caught my eye was that a majority of our SCOTUS justices are “originalists.” I believed that too, until I read Vadeck’s The Shadow Docket. They are not originalists - they’re just people who want what they want in lifetime positions who can get what they want.

Appallingly misleading article in the #WaPo. The article explains that Lech Walesa is FOR #socialism and against both #populism and #communism (b/c both can lead to authoritarianism). The one mention of "socialism" is inserted into the article by the author (a familiar MAGA writer) and then put into the headline by the WaPo. Do better, WaPo https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/08/16/walesa-socialism-ukraine-legacy/

Ruth Marcus: there is no such thing as “too many indictments.” One indicts to charge the crimes committed. WTF?!?

He’s unfairly burdened millions of Americans. If he is burdened, it is perfectly fair. In fact no burden we can impose on him could possibly be enough to achieve justice

@AthenaHelivoy the #nytimes & #wapo are proving to be pathetic

The fourth seal has been broken. The day of judgement draws nearer.

Trump charged in Georgia 2020 election probe, his fourth indictment https://wapo.st/3qnummx

A previous #factcheck of #Tuberville started when a #wapo reader pointed out the senator had pledged in his 2020 Senate campaign that he would “donate every dime” he made in Washington to #Alabama veterans. With Tuberville now having served 2½ years as senator, that would amount to a total of $437,000 in potential donations. When looked into whether he had met that pledge to turn over his salary to veterans causes — it was discovered he had not. 2/3

Richard Hanania academic, unmasked as fascist scumbag, long record of being published by #WaPo #NYT #WSJ (respectable media), as well as less surprising places like #Quilette & #NationalReview

1/ Between 2011 and 2019, the #NYT and the #WaPo increased their usage of the words "racist," "racists," and "racism" by over 700% and nearly 1,000%, respectively.

Let me be the first to say that #WaPo is not a "source" 😀

But the article was one the first to "agglomerate" such a two-third figure from ~activists.
It was in 2008 and then Eric #Zemmour took it to help grow his showing 😠

Love how WaPo didn’t throw in the term “Left-Wing” when describing Newsom—but made sure to say “Right-Wing” when describing DeSantis. Blatant hypocrisy.

#wapo rises to the challenge of data visualization for the former guy’s indictments.
