Read my blog post for @CIMA_Media!👇 I chatted with @antelava, founder of @CodaStory, about how the online thematic news outlet has been following Russia’s digital authoritarian tactics from its inception in 2016 to the current war in Ukraine. #mediadev

Musk has forced news companies to choose between their commercial interests and their values. Until now, business needs have won out, but the industry is beginning to reach a breaking point.

🟡 SCOOP: In a private email thread, major advertising executives expressed concern that Elon Musk's comments about race and the platform's openness to racist speech have made Twitter toxic, @maxwelltani reports. https://t.co/xqf6s1UX6D

[Ashley Westerman @_aswesterman]

Labeling @NPR state-affiliated media is wholly inaccurate and untruthful. NPR gets LESS THAN 2% of its funding from grants through the federal government. NPR’s newsroom is an absolutely free and independent newsroom; always has been. This label is a LIE and an insult.

⚡ The #Twitter press office now sends back an emoji 💩 to anyone who wants to contact the company by email. RSF denounces this attempt to humiliate journalists, a new translation of #ElonMusk's contempt for the media

In a rising challenge for independent media, #SLAPPs continue to stifle, suppress, and attack #pressfreedom. New @CIMA_Media report by @PeterNoorlander discusses tactics that newsrooms, lawyers, and funders can take to fight these frivolous lawsuits
