I don't get billionaires because if I owned a venerated American news institution I would simply give it lots of free money and get hailed as a savior of journalism instead of trying to make myself money I don't need in an industry that doesn't make money

seems to me the academy didn't nominate greta gerwig for best director bc they didn't want to risk scorsese not winning. even tho flower moon sucked, imho, hollywood has been implying his win is foregone for months.

So, is it just me, or does it kind of feel like the billionaires all teamed up to systematically dismantle journalism as we know it for the past decade?

pay attention to whats happening with writers being let go right now by large companies - sad, short sighted and decided on by people you'd never wanna hang with.

Yall Chuck Schumer read my Zyn and social media influencer story and held a press conference calling for federal action on nicotine pouches. nytimes.com/2024/01/12/opi… This is good, but what we need even more is federal action on tech platforms. cbsnews.com/newyork/video/…

Marshall McLuhan predicted newspapers' current crisis back in 1964: "The classified ads (and stock-market quotations) are the bedrock of the press. Should an alternative source of easy access to such diverse daily information be found, the press will fold."

It's been nearly 24 hours since I saw this and I'm still LIVID. Taking on more work for less money will not save you when the hedge fund in charge decides they don't need journalists. And it's deeply unethical for a self-appointed senior statesman to say otherwise.

Soon the entire media industry is going to be three newsletters and a bunch of execs trying to figure out how to get AI to rewrite press releases for them.

the real shit of it is that all the people laying off writers are the boring blowhards you'd avoid at a bar and all the writers are the interesting people you'd love to meet but who now can't afford a drink

8 year old, watching the press conference with me: "Let's write a comic book where the villain is President Pooptin and his henchman is Vice President Trump. "
