Resistant Communiqués PodcastMar 31
We are living in an information vacuum. As Anna Lekas Miller discusses in her #ResistantCommuniqués #podcast episode, "We need local, trusted news outlets to follow up on these claims. But almost 40% of #localnews sources have vanished in the past 10 years, and 50 million Americans are without or with limited access to a #newssource." When trusted local #journalism disappears, we lose the ability to critically analyze the truth. #Listen to AnnaLekasMiller's #episode: https://bit.ly/rc2026annalekasmiller

theijf.org The Investigative #Jounalism Foundation (IJF) is very likely a wonderful group of #journalists doing wonderful #news coverage.

However, like almost all ’new’ #journalist #newssource and #newsletter s, their primary income is #surveillance. Online surveillance is a harm. There is no way around that.

It’s not 👌, in my opinion, to share links which one knows will harm those who follow them. I do not share such links, nor boost toots which do.
