Khashoggi's Ghost
@urocklive1.bsky.social

Trump has again been accused of rape, he's again selling us out to help Russia, and his speeches consist of incoherent babbling, multiple blatant lies, and lengthy discussions of people's asses, but a person who makes an attempt to follow the news may not know any of this.

this is great. The NYT responses are pathetic (especially to criticism of calling Karoline Leavitt "fierce and nimble" in a subheadline without mentioning she's a propagandist and serial liar) establishment media ownership seeks out and hires people who'll coddle and defend ownership ideology

I'm prepping a class for undergrads on how to research using legal filings. Is there a, like, ten minute or less video on how to read a docket - which entries are likely to contain pay dirt and which can be safely ignored? Or does this exist only in my fantasies?

This reminds me of two scenes in the German movie “Downfall,” which depicts, historically accurately, Hitler’s last days.

The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)

bit.lyThe Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)So much for free speech.The studio releasing Alex Gibney’s new Elon Musk documentary Musk is finding itself unable to buy an ad on the biggest social platforms.YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram and Facebook owner Meta are all declining to run the trailer for Musk, along with X itself, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.That last one is perhaps understandable, given its owner. But the rejection by the other platforms has taken distributor Bleecker Street by surprise, and it is internally scrambling to understand why the ad has been rejected, according to a person familiar with the company’s processes who is not authorized to talk about them publicly.The unwillingness of platforms to accept even paid advertising is sure to raise concerns about free speech and the dwindling number of companies that control many of the platforms in this country — and ironically provide a proof-text for the very point the film is coming to make. Gibney’s doc is a four-hour look at a title character who attempts to control the conversation in various ways, including with alleged suppressions on X, which he bought in 2022.
