@jayrosen_nyu the true crime focus on motive and/or shooter life story is maddening, when of course the salient fact is the unique to US availability of firearms. Not unlike our difficulty shifting political coverage to account for anti-democracy, anti-fact movement, seems to me.
Today, first time in Polish TV, after 8 years of right-wing government, the LGBT+ activists appeared in live broadcast. I was seating there and heard journalist shaking voice. He made an apology after years of portraying LGBT-people a threat to Polish nation in the same studio. I was moved.. Apology an important part of reconciliation. This is Poland I want to fight for... Thank you...
