A few comments on the @mark-carney.bsky.social platform released today. You can find it here: liberal.ca/cstrong/. I provided some 'sounding board' advice here and there to those working on the platform. As always: I disclose, but you can decide what weight to put on that. Thread below...

My last thought on this because I need some Offline Time: Because of their fear of being defined as "not neutral" or "biased," the bodies who label "journalists" and adjudicate access are increasingly complicit in the destruction of our information ecosystem. Meet the moment and grow a spine.

It’s so upsetting seeing people say the CTV cancellation — which was purely bc of right-wing trolls — was actually deserved bc I shared a Liberal misstep. I won’t blindly “both sides” things, but please don’t make your support of my work contingent on me being blind to any one party’s mistakes.
