journalist legal defense funds, too

With all the media and federal layoffs, this sure would be an ideal time for those wealthy Democrats I keep hearing about to put up the funds to launch brand-new media and civic society organizations.

desperately

I don’t want any more media funded by billionaires, actually

marisakabas.bsky.social•7 days ago

cool, are you paying for my legal defense?

plutoniary.bsky.social•7 days ago

They’re free to help with that but I don’t want their media companies

caravellin.bsky.social•7 days ago

Then maybe reply to the skeet that called for the latter not the one that called for the former

plutoniary.bsky.social•7 days ago

Get over yourself. If you don’t like the idea that billionaire media probably isn’t going to serve us, move along. I didn’t write that to attack anyone. And now you’re attacking me

caravellin.bsky.social•7 days ago

I'm not attacking you, I'm telling you that adjusting your replies more finely than you did to the post they're a reply to reduces misunderstandings and extraneous rounds of "actually I meant...", as happened here.

Nobody is attacking you, they're telling you that you made a sparky remark in response to a strawman

What is happening here is this, X/ Reddit etc.
Any voice of reason is banned and only that of Musk and Trump remain and you will send your children to die in temperatures so cold you would not even understand.

Its your call, climate change will kill you or we will defend you to death at this rate.

I'm not aware of orgs who operate in that area, I'd love a list if you have one!

a little fantasy I have is that, if/when we get through this, the new congress will start a fund for dozens of new regional papers and lift up successful center-left to left wing media personalities.

make sure there's lots of different voices covering the corruption scandals and cases being dug through.

Betcha it would come with strings

They need to fund an antidote to Fox (and one that credits your scoops). Great as they are we don’t need another newsletter or subscription.

John Stewart talked about this (the news part) with Bob Iger before he returned to Disney. It's an illuminating conversation, regardless of your feelings towards Iger:

Hire Bacon, Lawless and Fitzpatrick out of the House into well paying private sector jobs.

This is what I want to see. An influx of funding to support new organizations built by people who have been illegally fired or had grant funding stripped away, a new front for the resistance
