Breakaway and Zombie journals: what happens after mass editorial board resignations. @KyleSiler looks into what happens when a journal and its community separate.

Glossa vs Lingua & QSS vs Journal of Informetrics. Lingua suffered, JoI didn't - but both 'Zombies' published more Chinese studies whereas the European and North American researchers moved to the OA breakaways.

LOL, Student editors at the #ColumbiaLawReview push “#Nakba as a Legal Concept,” and are mad the Board shut that down.

When the editors refused the request, the Board — made up of faculty and alumni from #ColumbiaUniversity’s law school — shut down the law review’s website entirely.

Editors described the Board’s intervention as an unprecedented breach of editorial independence

#EditorialIndependence does not excuse editorial malfeasance 🙄

Revealed: #RoyalFamily has power to #censor #BBC #coronation coverage

The royal family should have the power to censor BBC's coronation coverage—but then they should keep it a private business and not spend public funds. You can't have it both ways. #coronation #bbc #EditorialIndependence https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/may/05/revealed-royal-family-has-power-to-censor-bbc-coronation-coverage?CMP=share_btn_tw

Twitter's label had CBC quite perturbed
Describing them as 69% government funded
But the CBC was quick to make sure the facts were heard
Independence is at their core and the label absurd
Sharing news with freedom and free from any control

Community voices concerns over American Chemical Society magazine

Board members: "Based upon the current changes made to C&EN by the leadership of the ACS, that #EditorialIndependence has been revoked."

ACS: "‘ACS is fully committed to C&EN and to maintaining and protecting its editorial independence. The recent reorganization does not impact C&EN’s ability to do world-class science journalism"
