  2. RE: mastodon.world/@HamonWry/11560

    Musk didn’t just allow it to happen. He intentionally reshaped the infrastructure and algorithms of the platform in order for it to proliferate to serve his agendas. #Musk knows what #Zuckerberg knows what #Limbaugh knew what #Murdoch knows what #Hearst knew: fomenting division and fear turns a casual audience into ideological addicts who will make them rich while further serving their agenda.

  14. The Dallas Morning News' parent company fends off Alden Global Capital bid

    The board implemented a shareholder rights plan, a disincentive against MediaNews Group attempting to acquire further stakes in DallasNews. The maneuver is also sometimes called a “poison pill.”

  19. The #PressDemocrat, a prominent newspaper in #SantRosa and #SonomaCounty, has been sold to #MediaNewsGroup, a subsidiary of #AldenGlobalCapital. The sale raises concerns among local #journalists and SF #BayArea residents due to Alden’s reputation for cost-cutting measures, including staff reductions and "shared" resources, which could impact the quality and depth of local news coverage. The sale was a surprise to the newsroom staff, who are now uncertain about their future under new ownership.

    Nearly 20 years ago, a federal judge extended an order barring #Hearst Corp. and MediaNews Group Inc. from collaborating on local distribution and national advertising sales. It was part of an antitrust lawsuit alleging monopolistic practices in MediaNews’ acquisitions of Bay Area #newspapers. Then, as now, we should remain concerned about both companies, and the potential effect of #monopoly, or #oligopoly.

  20. Barnsdall-Rio Grande Gas Station – Goleta, California

    NEARLY 90 YEARS AFTER IT was built, a #beautiful #little #abandoned #gas #station waits in Goleta, California, for its fate to be decided.

    The Barnsdall-Rio Grande gas station was born of the sudden tremendous success of its namesake oil company and the influence of the civic leader #Pearl #Chase.

    Chase was leading the efforts to rebuild the Santa Barbara area after the 1925 earthquake, and favored #Spanish #Colonial style architecture.

    When the oil company hired the firm Morgan, Walls & Clements to build its flagship gas station near their oil fields on Highway 101, it followed Chase’s example. The building was small but impressive, with #white #stucco walls, red #mission #tiles on the roof, a molded border for the upper windows, a #domed #cupola on top, and blue and white #tile around the doors and windows on the first floor.

    #William #Randolph #Hearst was known to stop there when traveling between Los Angeles and San Simeon.

    The gas station survived a Japanese #submarine #attack on the California coast in 1942, but a few years later Highway 101 was rerouted, isolating the little gas station, and by the early 1950s it had closed.

    Still #abandoned, its future is uncertain. Residents hope the building will be restored to its former beauty and made into a #museum.
