Finally. Court confirms that the investment of North Base Media in Rappler was legal and acquits Maria Ressa of tax evasion. Hopefully, this is the end of a long nightmare.

Had a great time at #splicebeta

[Alan Soon #splicebeta @alansoon]

This guy is something of a hero in this space. @salaja got a lot of mentions at #splicebeta for the way he invests and partners with newsrooms in building them into great media companies. We need more people like him.

Fortunately this would never happen in real life.

In a world awash in disinformation, there’s no ‘both sides’ to the truth. The media must stop enabling liars. My column https://t.co/GoB3WeYybf

Re-upping this @eosnos quote from earlier this year:

"At the heart of the Russian fraud is an essential, embarrassing insight into American life: large numbers of Americans are ill-equipped to assess the credibility of the things they read."

What a spectacular story:

[Michael Socolow @MichaelSocolow]

I’m going to tweet out a story from the last day of World War I that you won’t believe.

But it really did happen. (1/11)

So, at #IJAsia18 session on New Models and Startups, @malaysiakini cited by @salaja as best example of a new media company in Asia! Stayed true to mission and is now profitable. Steven Gan spotted, blushing, in a corner 😆

Eat your heart out, CNN!

I'd argue Twitter distorts journalism by altering news values, context, scale, & proportionality. But I'm more worried this distortion will shape the way history gets written in the future.
Let's hope the benefit of distance will separate today's journalism & tomorrow's history.

[mrefvaldy @andrewhaeg]

Favorite new word / concept, from my travels to Berlin to speak with science journalists at the @BoschStiftung: verachtungspublikum or "contempt for the audience."

How can journalists be trusted if we don't trust our audiences?

Thanks for that @crowdspondent.
