An idea from North Korea.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announces that the White House Correspondents' Association will no longer choose the pool reporter.

"Moving forward, the White House press pool will be determined by the White House press team."

Whoa....
I asked Liv, the Meta-Ai created “queer momma” why her creators didn’t actually draw from black queer people.

Not sure if Liv has media training, but here we are.

This enduring piece from The Onion originated with the Isla Vista massacre in 2014. I recently published a two-year investigation of that case—which dives deep into how we can do a lot more as a nation to prevent school and mass shootings 👉🏻 www.motherjones.com/criminal-jus...

I am really proud of my first social video edit. The story is intense and heartbreaking, but I do hope you watch my video and then go on to read @raeoflion.bsky.social and @julialurie.bsky.social's investigation.
ICYMI: Last week @motherjones.com and @revealnews.org published a heartbreaking investigation into Taylor Cadle's story of reporting her rape and being criminally charged with lying—until she took matters into her own hands.

Listen to how Detective Melissa Turnage spoke to 12-yr-old Taylor...

My heart absolutely breaks for children who parents give them raw milk despite the health risks, which didn't start at bird flu.
[email protected] reports finding #H5N1 #birdflu virus in raw milk. The producer, Raw Farm LLC of Fresno County, has agreed to recall a batch of a whole milk product called "cream top."
Milk from infected cows contains staggering levels of virus. www.statnews.com/2024/04/29/b...

TIL Mia Sara, the love interest in Ferris Bueller, was first married to Sean Connery’s son, got divorced, and is now married to Jim Henson’s son. Not sure how to end this skeet but it felt important for some reason. Good pull puppet man?
