6/ Mark Zuckerberg whines in 2024, working men died in 2021.
Zuckerberg in his letter to House Republicans this week feels "regret" **for responding** in 2021 to President Biden's bully pulpit pleading by removing from Facebook media artifacts misleading people about the COVID vaccine.
See Oct. 2021 unpaywalled issue of TracingCOVID to decide for yourself if Zuckerberg, who earned higher-than-typical profits in 2021, should feel "regret".

2) I said Jeffrey Toobin made a choice, that was not an accident, and that "he couldn't keep it together."
America has a deep bench of legal talent, these news outlets don't need to rehire Toobin.
Jeffrey Toobin is "a respected journalist" the confronted pervert said last week, my classmate reported.
Toobin made a mistake. People at top-tier news outlets can forgive him without platforming him.

BNONews *looks* real, but cites no sources & lists no human editors.
Who or what is BNONews? Derivative genAI news that grants no credit or attribution to its training data? A sole human who types punchy things that sound true-enough alongside hand-drawn line graphs?
