Melanie SillHow can our #USPol national journalism outlets do so many stories on the extreme heat and #climatechange issues day after day without the accountability piece: what can be done, who holds power to act, and what are they doing about it? Where are we on the big steps proposed and, as a society, on responding seriously? Covering weather vs. focusing on human role and solutions is ultimate example of incremental #journalism reacting to events vs. holding power to account.
CrazyMyra@melaniesill The same way items about migrants or laws against trans people are depicted as the problem of individual states. The US only speaks as one in times of war

Mainstream Media: "The world's on fire. Scientists say it's man-made. But who could possibly be doing this and be held accountable. The world may never know."
