#Legal experts have dismissed that suit as baseless & far-fetched [ya don’t say], & #BillOwens said in Feb that he would not apologize as part of any prospective settlement. Many #journalists at #CBSNews — the former home of #WalterCronkite & #MikeWallace — believe that a settlement would amount to a #capitulation to #Trump over what they consider standard-issue gripes about editorial judgment.

Rights groups said authorities are using the law to wage an unprecedented crackdown on dissent reminiscent of the Soviet era.
Fleeing house arrest is risky in Russia, but not unheard of. Former Russian state TV journalist Marina Ovsyannikova, who protested against the Ukraine conflict during a live broadcast, escaped Russia in 2022 after fleeing house arrest.”

You can see her speaking in an embedded clip. She'd already had 11 members of her family killed by Israel..

“We support and protect, through our presence, our Palestinian colleagues who demonstrate unmatched courage in sending us images and testimonies of the immense tragedy unfolding in Gaza.”
Media professionals from at least 36 publications, including Agence France-Presse (AFP), Radio #France, Mediapart, Arte and BFM TV, participated in the die-in, alongside some freelance journalists.
#Journalist organisations, including the European Federation of Journalists and the International Federation of #Journalists, supported the protest.

After attending the International Journalism Festival for the first time this year, I hope next year can focus more on the solutions to the problems journalists identified.

When does compensation become complacency?
I posed the question above to a small group discussing the intersection of technology and news media at the International Journalism Festival last week.
We were discussing Big Tech companies buying compliance from news companies, across a
A Palestinian journalist Fatima Hassouneh and 10 members of her family were killed in an Israeli air strike that targeted their home in Gaza City.
Israel targeted and murdered another brave journalist, along with her family.
Shame on all Western reporters who have failed to speak up on behalf of their Palestinian colleagues. I despise you all.
RIP Fatima Hassouna

Hey #journalists and #media please use "skeptic" (aka sceptic) properly.
A skeptic doesn't accept a given position on a topic until they've seen well-gathered facts, analysis or data to support that position.
Denying #climateChange or #vaccines in the face of solid evidence doesn't define a skeptic. At best that's a denier or conspiracy theorist.
We should normalize calling people like #RFKjr something like "a vaccine disinformation enthusiast" or "vaccine ignorant."

#Palestinian photographer Fatima Hassouna was killed today. The #Gazan local lost her family earlier in the #genocide and documented the #Israeli atrocities with her camera.
The #Trump admin has handpicked which #news #media outlets can participate in the presidential #PressPool, & on Tues it eliminated a slot reserved for reporters from independent newswires.
In the briefing room, ofcls have made room for a new cohort of more #partisan attendees, like #RightWing podcasters, who ask less-adversarial questions than traditional #journalists.…

Can we please stop referring to what trump is doing as “deportations”? Deportation involves due process. The Supreme Court (not the current one, who knows how they’ll butcher it once they have the chance) established that constitutional protections (including due process) apply to everyone in the US, no matter immigration status. I am not a lawyer or constitutional scholar, but this seems pretty clear.

"There are several overlapping groups of people who, probably for different reasons, are more likely to prefer news that shares their point of view:
(a) the ideological and politically engaged;
(b) young people, especially those who rely mainly on social media for news;
(c) women; and
(d) less socioeconomically advantaged groups."
"In markets dominated by fewer brands — often publicly funded ones such as the BBC — respondents in that market also tend to express higher levels of preference for impartiality." In Britain, where respondents use an average of four news brands, the lowest number across the 40 countries studied, 62% of respondents say they prefer news displaying no point of view.

The "trade" qualification will lose meaning as #Trump loses patience.
In the current time, #journalists need to understand the real motives, the possible futures, when a person seems to be destroying their own country's (#usa) best parts.
The "better futures" promised by people indifferent to suffering, the ones they look forward to, are the ones where they get to say: now its even clearer I am in control. That's what #autocracy means, and if that's the goal, then #tariffs are just a means to an end for them, not a better world for the people.

Federal judge lifts White House ban on #AP
U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden found that when rooms in the White House, like the Oval Office or the East Room, are opened to certain #journalists, the admin cannot block others.
