Indiana University fires IDS
adviser amid push to control
student newspaper's content

The director of student media at Indiana University was fired amidst a dispute between university leadership and editors at the Indiana Daily Student over what content gets printed in the student newspaper.

As director of student media, Jim Rodenbush did not directly oversee or have any say over the content published in the IDS, per a charter between the IDS and the university. But he told IndyStar his firing follows a series of meetings with IU Media School leadership in which it grew increasingly apparent they were expecting him to officially prohibit students from publishing news.

It feels like such a slap in the face to sex workers and nsfw artists who are actively being censored by payment processors atm. Of course visa/mc are ok with this because its a rich white guy doing it AND they get access to all that VERY PROFITABLE PII. Disgusting.

Why would a billionaire want a functioning paper? Functioning papers cover shit like “did you know this billionaire makes his workers pee into bottles instead of taking a break” and “you pay way more tax than a guy with ten yachts”

The Guardian did a profile of Linehan last month in which they described a 57 year old man’s years-long obsession with harassing trans people as “gender activism”

What’s next? Is Tommy Robinson a race activist?

That aggregator account is particularly infuriating. A few days ago, I called it out for lifting video sans credit, date, and ID of person shot. They included almost no info!

People need to stop sharing that account's posts, and all the other creepy aggregators too. They're just rip-off artists.

As usual, Tennessee Holler lifts video without crediting creator. No location or date. No ID of person shot in the head w/less lethals. All findable!

By removing context, Tennessee Holler damages activism and makes misinfo more likely.
