"His professional and online history call into question whether he would pass the background check typically required to obtain security clearances, security experts tell WIRED." Says one: “Plus his handle is literally Big Balls.”

incredible move by the Washington Post TikTok guy: He made a TikTok about the paper’s non-endorsement move on the Washington Post account.

top comment is: “fascinating that THIS was allowed”

[Committee to Protect Journalists @pressfreedom]

🚨 The Committee to Protect Journalists is aware of accusations made by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) against several journalists in Gaza accusing them of being members of militant groups. Israel has repeatedly made similar unproven claims without producing credible evidence. After killing Al Jazeera correspondent Ismail Al Ghoul in July, the IDF previously produced a similar document, which contained contradictory information, showing that Al Ghoul, born in 1997, received a Hamas military ranking in 2007 – when he would have been 10 years old.

[Airwars @airwars]

Israel has published more videos of its own airstrikes than any other modern military - boasting precision in its campaign in Gaza.

But who was really killed?

The Academy of American Poets has published this poem, and that is a very, very good thing.

One of the most moving pieces of partner impact I have witnessed during my time @pulitzercenter. India's Supreme Court just banned caste-based work in prisons after an exposé by @sukanyashantha & @jahnavi_sen of @thewire_in. The chief judge thanked the reporters for their work.

Can we take a rest?
Maybe die for a few
months or years
and wake up when the poem
is complete,
when the flowers in our
garden start to grow,
their scent luring
the sparrows into visiting
our house,
our house that’s now
a small forest of rubble.

A 10-month @NBCNews investigation reveals how the corpses of the poor were systematically cut up and leased out — to major medtech companies, universities, the Army and beyond — as part of a flourishing business.

When confronted by our reporters, the program was suspended, the executives were fired.
