I got an email inquiry from an Axios reporter yesterday and just put it right in the trash. I can’t trust that anything I say to them won’t be twisted to fit their agenda so they get the same response I’d give Fox News - ThreadSky

Per Axios - cruel stunts like putting poster of immigrants around the White House lawns, cartoon of a crying women being deported by ICE, dark videos of immigrants being deported - is a “sophisticated understanding” of media landscape.

Sophisticated media approach that has him tanking in the polls

Bullet point journalism for brain donors

I’m still waiting on @axios.com to tell me how’s the “award winning” alex thompson’s story on trump’s dementia and senility going. It was refreshing to hear him scold the media for ignoring the obvious with Biden. I can only assume he’s on a deadline with his trump bombshell story.

When they tell us he has "camera friendly cabinet secretaries" have they actually seen his cabinet secretaries?

This season of the Walking Dead looks terrible.

paghetti.bsky.social•5 days ago

good for you. Axios is starting to exhibit Media Derangement Syndrome.

aloysiuso.bsky.social•5 days ago

An "ASMR-style video" of people being deported? Wtf?

mapablue.bsky.social•5 days ago

yeah, this is what i'm feelin'

i said a month ago that i thought Axios wants their readers to taste blood while reading their "news."

tomlavan.bsky.social•5 days ago

Axios is truly embarrassing publication and should barely be referred to as a publication at all. It’s a pamphlet of bulleted lists laundered from Trump lies written by asshats like Alex Thompson that assume their readers are idiots and need everything distilled down to nothing

patti-obrien.bsky.social•5 days ago

Good.

Actually they are appropriating what many churches and some residents are doing.

accountabilabuddy.bsky.social•5 days ago

The same Axios whose leadership laments not making a big enough deal of Biden's mental state, while they struggle every day to ignore the obvious decay of the person they helped put back into office (even though the constitution disqualifies him)?

imaxximus.bsky.social•5 days ago

Don’t we all have posters of the worst lady blowing farm animals on our driveways?

ivanandlucy.bsky.social•5 days ago

Sorry, but I'm not seeing that Axios is saying this is good, just that it is highly EFFECTIVE. There is a difference. We NEED to be reminded that evil never sleeps.

FU Axios. I am going to block your feed on my iphone's news app. I invite others to do the same.

Anywhere Jim VandeHei goes is an open pit of raw sewage and syphilis.

I gave up on them when I saw how consistently they sane-washed even the cruelest Trump policies

kittycan.bsky.social•5 days ago

Ugh, Crapios.

I had a nightmare where they started a publishing imprint, and they just edited great works down to bullet points.

"tapping into the zeitgeist"

bmazmanian.bsky.social•5 days ago

"Goebbels had a sophisticated media approach" is a heckuva take, Axios

spacealpaka.bsky.social•5 days ago

It's a good take as a post mortem and certainly right, but doing it like they do in real time is just knob slobbering and horrible to watch. They acting like they will never be affected by fascism and are just happy to show off their sophisticated brain waves

realrobellis.bsky.social•5 days ago

Shun the Vichy Media.

Shun them.

I used to have the same problem with an ex-wife: chopping up audio and messages to fit the agenda she was grifting with.
As I did...cut them off, skip being friendly, and block them as best as you can. ;-)

This "media landscape" is puerile propaganda that diminishes our humanity daily.

leafrancis.bsky.social•5 days ago

A disgusting fear mongering thing for the Trump:Vance/Miller administration to do.
