@AtIssueCBC@RosieBarton@acoyne@ChantalHbert@althiaraj the only answer to growing govt debt is austerity according to Andrew. He could never imagine the government increasing revenues. Austerity is theft. the last 30 years proves it, look at the growing wealth gap. Andrew only speaks for the wealthy and corporations.
@LukewSavage Macron Carney for ya! Can't wait for what he has in store for CPP. I predict his next budget will have a tax break for "small" business to "spur investment" and "create jobs"
🧵 In an internal email sent this morning, the NYT is doing a bit of damage control after accidentally leaking (!) that they had killed a Visual Investigations story that used video evidence to undercut the narrative the paper was pushing on the Amsterdam violence.
Editor Phil Pan claims the story was not "killed" but the details incorporated into a different story. That would be fine, except the story they incorporated it into kept the same, original, inaccurate framing.
Pan writes: "You may have seen an article in the online outlet Electronic Intifada criticizing our coverage of the violence in Amsterdam and making the claim that we “killed” a visual investigation into those events. I wanted to let you know this is untrue. In fact, we merged material from that visual reporting effort with our reporting on the ground in Amsterdam into one story. That allowed us to include all of our material in a single, more comprehensive and timely piece with official statements, verified video and accounts from witnesses we interviewed directly. As many of you know, this is not unusual. Some of our most powerful pieces of journalism in recent years have been collaborations with the Visual Investigations team, which regularly produces outstanding work around the world."
Congrats to John Fetterman on his victory last night, not really familiar with his policies I'm just happy a treacherous ottoman like Oz was made to taste defeat like his ancestors did during the Hellenic revolution of 1821
