Bisan Owda takes us into the lives of Gaza’s journalists – those who’ve lost colleagues right in front of them, survived bombings while reporting, and one journalist who was killed just five hours after his baby was born. Israel has killed nearly 300 journalists since the genocide began. This is the story of those who are still reporting and what they’ve sacrificed to do it. @dahman.eyad @ibrahimqannan @nahed_hajjaj99 #Gaza #Journalsim #GazaUnderAttack #PressFreedom

This seems important to me.
I have seen first hand the cavalier attitude of some news organisations to their archives and digital history.
Sometimes it seems that the internet is quintessentially ephemeral but we are impoverished if we allow that perception to be the reality.

If you needed another reason to despise and distrust the NYT:
“The New York Times is greenlighting the use of AI for its product and editorial staff, saying that internal tools could eventually write social copy, SEO headlines, and some code.”

And then there was this description of the NYT, in another article about this move to AI:: “The New York Times, a daily puzzle site with a side business in bad opinion pieces …”

We speak with The Nation's Chris Lehmann about President-elect Donald Trump's escalating attacks on the press and how major media figures and institutions are “capitulating preemptively” to the pressure. ABC News recently settled a defamation suit brought by Trump by making a $15 million donation to his future presidential library, despite experts saying the case was easily winnable. Trump is also suing The Des Moines Register for publishing a poll before the election that showed him losing to Vice President Kamala Harris. “What’s happening is a very clear pattern in Trump’s public life,” says Lehmann. “This is a show of power.”
BREAKING: Trump Lies. Again. Media Rejoices.
That’s really the only headline we ever need these days.

#BuzzFeed News shutting down sucks. For so long it set a high bar on what #journalsim should be doing across the industry. Now, just another example of important reporting being shuttered. What a waste.
