Finally, #NPR pauses postings to its 52 accounts on the #Birdsite due to being mislabeled by the prominent #governmentFunded #protofascist who bought the #Birdsite recently:

Said protofascist also undermined the credibility of other news outlets like #BBC & #PBS by mislabeling the work of their journalists.

It remains to be seen when the news outlets will learn their lessons, & set up their own #Fediverse instances.

I see there's a moderatly fresh #PBS @newshour account on Mastodon.

I very much hope the #NewsHour team makes its account alive and active, because I value their program and reporting a lot.

In the early morning hours in #Europe, I inadvertantly wittnessed @LisaD's reporting from inside the US #Capitol while under attack, and must say her reporting was one of the finest examples in the history of #PublicProgrammingMandate.
