British foreign correspondents could be at risk of prosecution if they use sources within state-backed groups in countries such as Iran under national security legislation being rushed through parliament this week.
David Anderson, a former UK independent reviewer of terrorism legislation, has warned that unless the bill is amended it could accidentally pull journalists working in danger-zone countries into prosecutions for terrorism.

Lovely piece… mentioning my eldest son’s 28 year fan journey of from N5 to 10027, Arsenal to the Knicks, and god bless him for getting Paul Davis, Michael Thomas, David Rocastle , Kevin Campbell and of course @IanWright0 into the @TheAthletic
The Knicks/Arsenal crossover has been impossible to ignore of late, especially after OG Anunoby’s Game 4 winner
Had fun exploring the sporting and cultural similarities between them with those who support both teams in what could be a season of a lifetime

@davidyelland This seems delusional David. For a reasonable person who broadcasts about ‘the truth’ this is evidence-free twaddle. What is it that upsets you so much about seeing Arsenal’s amazingly diverse fan base both local and international celebrating their first title in 22 years?
@GlennKessler__@rachelsklar@PulitzerPrizes@jkbjournalist I was on that jury and pushed unsuccessfully for @jkbjournalist to win the prize. I can say with full authority that the Dershowitz letter played no role. It was a well-known editor who staged what I considered to be a bizarre campaign from inside the jury.

I will start two separate threads today on the conflict between Iran, Israel and the US.
One thread will contain all the videos I have confirmed as authentic, and the other will be a list of misleading or false videos going viral.
Keep an eye on both throughout the day.
As I read about an increasing number of technology companies wishing to embed themselves in newsrooms (Eg Palantir….) it is clear most - if not all - would fail any loyalty test to a free press. This is what 2026 holds https://t.co/NktgCTTppD
In a Journalism 2050 live event, @emilybell and @heatherchaplin speak with @azmatzahra and Anya Schiffrin about the consequences of the war on Gaza on journalism and what history can teach us about the role of the press in times of crisis. https://t.co/W5pOp6Fpo1
Thread + piece both worth reading. There was *never* a time when large scale tech companies were allied to journalism, only a time when they were compelled to be more so by the threat of regulation. I know not every journalist agrees with me or @antelava . Issue remains urgent
Wow wow... At a time where we yearn for journalists holding power to account, asking the tough questions, this is the most impressive I’ve seen in years. And the power here is Google. You never see consequential tech executives get interviewed like this. For the reason below. /1
wish google and other companies would do this. it's genuinely not helpful to have AI images muddled with images of things that exist in the real world. if im trying to find an example of a certain garment to show a certain tailoring technique, i need a real example not an AI pic
