Every lawyer, judge & justice should READ this piece by @dahlialithwick sharing the searing words of Judge Robert Wilkins (D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals) at his portrait unveiling. The truths he reveals about his family’s history are the ultimate answer to a SCOTUS jurisprudence that attempts to fix our rights within the confines of the “founders’” vision or 19th century “custom & traditions.”
I don't think journalists (in general) -- and certainly not the organizations they work for -- fully understand the threat Musk represents to the future of free expression and journalism itself.
Begging him to reinstate the banned accounts is pure folly. It is bended-knee supplication to a sociopath who now controls a powerful media company. But the power of his company depends in no small degree on keeping journalists there.
Leave. Now.
Every news outlet should stand up a Mastondon instance for their reporters & staff.
It’ll be great to see [email protected] or whatever domain they want to use.
Built in verification. Every reporter for the Washington Post on a washpo domain. Every reporter for the New York Times on an NYTimes domain. Etc, etc.
Plus the “local” feed for each instance becomes a feed of all the posts from that institution mixed together — providing extra discovery.
