The Jonathan Kogan Show | Subscribe

The Jonathan Kogan Show brings you the most important, underreports news (and hot takes) that you need to know but the mainstream media is not covering. If you are searching for the truth, and of course the cold hard facts, then this podcast is for you. But, if you are looking for fake news and distractions from the real news, then you will be better off going to CNN, MSNBC, or Fox News. We do not cater to any corporations or powerful elites, but rather everyday peasants who simple want to know what is really going on without the propaganda. All Channels: https://jsk.transistor.fm/

Hey everyone, suggestions of news outlets that have started having a presence here? Love seeing the momentum pick up #newsnerds #noticias
I wrote a piece for The Atlantic several years ago on the problems with Twitter’s verification system and some of the core issues with the blue checkmark binary hierarchy https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2019/06/instagram-and-twitter-should-eliminate-verification/592351/ #technology #tech #twitterefugee #twitter #journalism #journalist #media #newsnerds
Instagram Verified Accounts: The System Is Broken

Verification scams are rampant on social media. What if that’s because the whole system is broken?

Who to follow? I want liberal journalists, bloggers, make me feel like I'm on Twitter without being on Twitter... #twitterefugee #twexit #FollowBackFridays #newsnerds

@brokenpotato I’m not sure there’s any orgs, I’ve just been finding individual #journalists who’ve joined, like @adamdavidson and @willoremus, when others have re-tooted them.

Maybe we need to start a thread where we can share journos to follow? #newsnerds

@profcarroll Really like this idea — and could easily extend to #journalism, too, as means to verify staff reporters through their employer and builds more value into @Danhon’s propsal from a couple of days ago https://mastodon.cloud/@Danhon/109247439988874860

First news organization to stand up its federated Mastodon server with a trustable domain (e.g. http://follow.washingtonpost.com) and accounts for its staff for people to follow gets a prize. Also, proposal for a standardized domain for news orgs, e.g. follow.bbcnews.com, follow.nytimes.com, and/or autodiscovery of a mastodon server for a parent domain e.g. a socialnetworks.txt #mastodon #media #news #newstech
