You know how much I love , right? Today for OnlySky, I deep-dive into three sensational stories about cancer breakthroughs. *Wonderful* things are happening in medical research. But we need to be careful in how we report on them.

Great OnlySky piece by M L Clark on the soon-to-be-centenarian criminal monster Henry Kissinger. Like Ratzinger, most of the media will equivocate over this ‘controversial’ figure rather than damning him - and the environments in which he thrived.

Today for OnlySky, a bit of a deep dive into the word games underpinning the US debt ceiling crisis, which has an unusual distinction among global democracies--and not as a case of ideal exceptionalism. This pressure point is long overdue for reform. onlysky.media/mclark/on-debt…

This week on Strange Customs, Sasha Sagan talks to NYT best-selling novelist Kiley Reid and sociologist Tamara Mose about a tradition that has evolved— out of necessity—from family & community participation, to an economic arrangement with strangers.

Today for OnlySky, a news brief that ties Turkey's latest elections into a deeper question about how we juggle the complex array of societal factors - some religious, some simply xenophobic - underpinning nationalism's rise: abroad, as at home. ⬇️ onlysky.media/mclark/lessons…

Today for OnlySky, an anti-clickbait news brief, reminding folks that we can choose where we focus our democratic energy - even if private enterprise wants to promote how it's giving new platforms to toxic people. Who will you signal-boost instead? onlysky.media/mclark/cnn-twi…

Today for OnlySky, I honestly thought this would be a news brief. Instead, we dive into the history of the ERA, which has always been tied up in labour issues... at least, until recent US politics moved far right. There's so much to be reclaimed. ⬇️ onlysky.media/mclark/what-a-…

Today for OnlySky, I deep-dive into the Wagner Group and Sudan. Yes, this situation relates to Russia and the war in Ukraine. But also, it highlights that our wars are *corporate*. Violence will continue so long as third-parties can profit.

Today for OnlySky, a word of caution around the Dominion settlement: defamation lawsuits are always going to be an inferior site of reckoning for damage done to our democracies by fake news. Keep pushing for better accountability across the board. ⬇️ onlysky.media/mclark/dominio…

Today for OnlySky, a brief tale of two court cases: the messy religious discrimination case SCOTUS chose to review on Tuesday, & the case for sitting with those in prison that it denied. What do SCOTUS priorities tell us about coming US struggle? onlysky.media/mclark/supreme…
