  1. @Platform_Journalism
    Thanks for the vid… interesting data.
    TL:DR I’m sure the report goes into *methodology* without which the data it reveals (and the analysis thereof) comes under question. Still, based on your vid, I find astounding that the range of news outlets reported is so restricted… I mean, who get news from *Broadsheets* (some digitised) these days when clearly they are not found very credible. Contrast and compare with the ample diversity of reporters, commentators, analysts found on the internet (as well as news outlets such as the Guardian for example) with various perspectives of current affairs and what daily hits an editor’s desk.

    Personally, I read from a wide-ranging collection of ‘news’ reporting sources. Mostly from sources with obvious and transparent biases as diametrically opposed as possible while staying clear of *extreeme* views and opinions. A distillation of all of these is my *middle way* to something resembling truth (a loaded term itself).

    Thanks again for communicating your research on the #Fediverse

  5. Masking the scent of decay with righteous words and performative outrage simply places you where the decay is happening. As the active observer of it, not only do you observe where the decay is happening, but simultaneously, what you value becomes an echo from the past.

    Generating what will balance the scales implies choosing to embody what you find meaningful and life-giving. There is no room for negotiations, only standing your ground.
