A note to the #newsmedia: I really don't give a fuck about anything J.D. Vance has to say. Besides being a classic stuffed shirt, it's clear he has no political career to speak of after 2028 unless something changes drastically between now and then.

He's somehow more a political footnote than Dan Quayle. I mean, even Trump treats Vance like a red-headed stepchild.

"But notwithstanding this delinquent and wilful episode, Peter Hartcher to this day remains the international editor of both papers. How maladroit do you have to be before the management decides your copy has no value — before management is obliged to drop you?" - Paul Keating

SHM, The Age Red-Faced over Red Alert

The Nine papers made some very - VERY- alarming predictions three years ago that by now we’d be at war with China. So far, so wrong.

Former Watchtower buildings in Brooklyn Heights eyed for new housing (Arun Venugopal for Gothamist. March 12, 2026.)

This should make you properly gloomy. In 2002 there were 40 professional, nonpartisan journalists for every 100,000 Americans. Today there are eight. What does it mean? That we are making decisions about public policies and civic progress today with a lot fewer facts than two decades ago. And, no, social media is not taking up the slack. https://theconversation.com/why-the-pittsburgh-post-gazettes-closure-exposes-a-growing-threat-to-democracy-272992 #newsmedia
Why the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s closure exposes a growing threat to democracy

When reputable local news outlets close, fewer people vote and get involved in local politics, and misinformation, corruption and polarization increase.
