Will Google’s AI hype man kill the BBC?

Matt Brittin spent two decades at Google, a tech company helping to destroy journalism. His appointment as leader of Britain’s biggest news organisation represents an existential threat, writes Carole Cadwalladr

Hard to express how important this is. Mankind is sinking into the usual shit.

NEW: I’ve found an opaque financial vehicle owns a large chunk of the Observer. And neither it or the Guardian will say who it is. Why? Well there is a clue. Which goes by way of Saudi Arabia… 1/ https://open.substack.com/pub/broligarchy/p/the-broligarchys-war-on-journalism?r=nv9u6&utm_medium=ios https://substack.com/@carolecadwalla/note/p-184097202?r=nv9u6&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action

Kiitos, Long Playn perjantaikirje uudesta (tai ehkä se on ollut olemassa jo pidemmän aikaa…) mediasta, nimeltään The Nerve. Viiden, aiemmin Guardianissa ja Observerissä työskennelleen naisen perustama. Tilasin kaksi kertaa viikossa tulevan sähköpostin ja luin jo yhden jutun, Tony Blairin Lähi-itä-messiasmissiota ja Big Tech- ja Trump-suhteita koskevan.

Virkistävää, joskin myös masentavaa.

”The Nerve is a fearless, female-founded media title set up by a collective of five former Guardian and Observer journalists who believe that the UK needs more truly independent journalism.”

Good riddance to a bad idea

...but it did effectively distract from the massive Facebook data breach scandal, as intended. (Look it up, if you don't know)

Experts say that claims UK data remains under government ownership miss the point that the company has the capability to build its own detailed picture of the British population, and even infer state secrets. Report by Charlie Young and Carole Cadwalladr

Carole Cadwalladr on Epstein Fallout: As U.K. Arrests Ex-Prince, Where is the Accountability in U.S.?

British police released former Prince Andrew on Thursday after 11 hours in custody, with his shocking arrest earlier in the day making him the first senior British royal to be arrested in nearly 400 years. Police are probing his connections to the deceased sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein and whether he shared classified government information with him while serving as a U.K. trade representative from 2001 to 2011. King Charles’ brother, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor after being stripped of his royal title, is the most high-profile figure in the U.K. to be implicated in a widening scandal over ties to Epstein, who died in a New York jail in 2019 awaiting trial on sex trafficking. Authorities did not reference sexual abuse allegations against Mountbatten-Windsor or Epstein’s sex trafficking case; Mountbatten-Windsor settled a lawsuit with Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre in 2022 and has denied all wrongdoing. Investigative journalist Carole Cadwalladr says this week’s arrest feels like a “rupture” in British society because the royals are seen as “sacrosanct” and rarely subjected to such treatment. “And in America, what are we seeing? We’re seeing this sort of culture of complete impunity, where it appears the law is not equal, where there are people who are above it.”
