@prospect.org@bsky.brid.gy who exactly cares about shops that cater solely to the #wealthy? Why waste important #journalistic resources on covering this crap. Focus on the #progressive issues that matter to the majority of #humanity (and not just #Americans ).

Looking for good (adheres to basic #journalistic principles) independent news outlets? The Minnesota Reformer might be one to track. How do I decide if a news outlet's legit? Well, I watch for clauses like "was unable to verify." Think about that for a sec. https://minnesotareformer.com
Raphael Moussa Hillebrand contributed to the very first story for the #journalistic project tanz.dance. How #anti-racist are the stages? Since then, their #funding declined. Today it's affecting the alliance of German production houses. How innocent can #theater be? https://tanz.dance/barriers-what-barriers/?lang=en

I did a #Truth in #Journalism filter on the article and got this #evaluation of the article
Summary: Article T Score ≈ 0.44 (mid-low). [not good]

The demise of the corporation, known as #CPB, is a direct result of #Trump’s targeting of #PublicMedia, which he has repeatedly claimed is spreading political & cultural views antithetical to those the #UnitedStates should be espousing [meaning #facts instead of #propaganda]. The #closure is expected to have a profound impact on the #journalistic & #cultural landscape — in particular, #PublicRadio & #TV stations in small communities across the #US.
@keithwilson #Apple makes no effort to clarify that this statement is false, and that in fact Americans will pay this, and no new money is flowing into the United States. #Journalistic failure.
Government Media Office in #Gaza: - The number of #journalistic martyrs has risen to 215 after journalist Hassan Oslih was martyred, was assassinated by the occupation forces in a bombing that targeted him while receiving treatment inside Nasser Medical Complex.

#Journalistic #malpractice: you don't need to wait to #impeach by flipping the House! "House Minority Leader #HakeemJeffries has said little about whether he would push to impeach #Trump a third time if his party can flip the House next year." https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5283018-democratic-leaders-trump-fights/
I agree with The Substack Post that a new #media order is emerging: "Many #publishers thriving on #Substack cut their teeth in #LegacyMedia, & they are carrying forward those values & #journalistic #standards. Others [are] from outside, bringing fresh #perspectives & #insight." https://tinyurl.com/bd3a4tyr
I just watched the #movie #September5 (2024) about the death of 11 #Israeli #athletes killed in terrorist hostage taking that went wrong at the 1972 #Munich #Olympics.
According to #Fandango, the movie is already out of the theaters & is only available to be streamed.
It plays like an documentary. Very little live footage is shown because #ABC the only network to cover the event as it occurred really had no access beyond distant shots & on the scene reporting.
So, the movie is mainly about the behind the scenes event of the ABC Sports team taking over the reporting of a major political event -- the things they got right & the things they got wrong in the process -- & it is more interesting from this #TV #journalistic perspective than any other.
I'd give it a 6 out of 10 but it's not going on my DVD buy list.

Suggestions to build #journalistic, online actions to focus on facts
The #NewYorkTimes devotion to the horse race is at least consistent, if a waste of #journalistic resources many of us bemoan regularly. Sadly, so is the paper's willingness to be manipulated. Instead of weighing news value and vetting for accuracy and context, the NYT can be counted on to simply regurgitate what candidates say each day in headlines that get a lot more attention than fact-checks after. Better #journalism would keep the daily trail in context and look harder at substance #USPol
#VicePresident #KamalaHarris hasn’t sat for #interviews. I don’t blame her.
It would be #insane to #subject yourself to #unfettered #questions by an #industry that doesn’t seem to know how to handle #interviews with true #journalistic #integrity and #practices. Why beat your head against a wall you know is made of #Propaganda and #Disinformation?
#Trump seeks to #delay his #hushmoney #sentencing on 34 Felony Counts until after the #election
His #lawyers say they are seeking to have the #conviction #overturned on #immunity #grounds.
But in reality, in a detail the #journalistic #story left out, Trump wants his #sentencing #delayed until after the #election in hopes he can #pardon himself.

What a #journalistic #investigation of #Project2025 looks like. And no it was not created by any of the #US "#media" #outlets.
Has the #NYT hoisted itself on its own petard? How can the news division possibly have anything accurate or informative to say about the #election when the editorial board has declared war on #Biden (as if their "coverage" of #Trump weren't sufficient to question their #journalistic ethics)? A mass cancellation of subscriptions might send the message #Sulzberger needs to hear.
"The broadcaster’s repeated caving to a highly biased pro-Israel advocacy group undermines its claims to #journalistic integrity." Yep!https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/on-cbc-media-capitulation-and-honest-reporting-canada

There's no reason for the #NewYorkTimes' CEO to be insightful about #localnews, and he isn't, though this interview is worth reading. But Joshua Benton at Nieman Lab knows this territory well, and I agree with his assessment that if the Times "believes in its “core #journalistic mission... it should be using its position of relative financial security to work harder on the biggest and most intractable part of the problem. And that’s local news." https://www.niemanlab.org/2024/02/weve-really-worked-hard-not-to-ever-have-a-pivot-at-the-new-york-times-a-g-sulzberger-on-ai-local-news-and-that-trump-bump/ #journalism
