honestly I'm about 50/50 as to whether Bari is doing the bidding of her fascist paymasters, or she is actually this confused because she has never seen or experienced the basic process of reporting a story, not once in her life

get that god damn news going. I want to see you newsing harder than anyone has newsed before. if the Trump administration refuses to comment on a story about its torture slave dungeon, we can't publish bsky.app/profile/beng...
Bari Weiss this morning on the 60 Minutes segment: "We need to be able to get the principals on the record and on camera."
Of course, most journalists know that oftentimes people who are the subject of negative reporting don't want to speak on camera or on the record.

Bari Weiss introduced herself to CBS News staff today on the network's 9AM call, saying she wants to "win," which requires restoring trust to CBS. She also said she was excited for staff to get to know the Free Press, and ended her remarks by saying: "Let's do the fucking news."

So many of my arguments with relatives are them essentially saying ‘we count as white’ and me saying ’ the white people cannot tell the difference between hindus And Muslims’

Above I said "no religion is immune to fascism." This is *not* an anti-religion statement, and I've as little time for that kind of flat and essentialist thinking as I do for Christian or Hindu nationalism. Fascism is like a black hole: it exerts a terrible gravity on all things.

The liberal imagination that Usha Vance must somehow not be a part of the fascist project to which she gives her energies is yet another facet of white supremacy & Christian nationalism the very racial & religious essentialism on which they thrive.

Censoring a story about the outsourced regime gulag is not consistent with freedom of speech. But it is consistent with the belief that “free speech” is when conservatives can say what they want and when you can say what they want.
