I was just thinking something similar to what this article is saying. Social Media is NOT a source of news, it is other people's reactions TO the news.

She has some interesting insights.

Well done to the team at The Guardian for standing up against X.

Their statement: "The US presidential election campaign served only to underline what we have considered for a long time: that X is a toxic media platform and that its owner, Elon Musk, has been able to use its influence to shape political discourse."

We look forward to helping the wave of journalists and publications that will no doubt follow.

Despite Biden's Promise to Protect Old Forests, His Administration Keeps Approving Plans to Cut Them Down

Old-growth forests are key to slowing #climate change and to protecting endangered species. In #Oregon, logging in Bureau of Land Management-controlled areas has continued at a steady pace despite Biden’s promise to protect these forests.

Last week, we asked #NewstodonFriday readers if anyone else felt sick at the thought of the U.S. election, and here we are. Not much levity in this week’s thread, but rather stories on the state of journalism and media, how different outlets plan to tackle the Trump administration, and even one about how political polarization can literally make you sick. We’ve sprinkled a little lighter fare in there, including a beautiful Tiny Desk concert from Meshell Ndegeocello (close your eyes and scroll to the bottom if you can’t bear to read any news). Please check out the stories, follow the publications, click on the stories, subscribe, donate and otherwise support if you can. Independent media matters now, more than ever.

“Black college and high school students report receiving racist texts about being "selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation."

Federal, state, and local authorities are investigating the offensive messages that have been sent over the last two days.

"It’s sick and it’s wrong," says St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones. Her 17-year old son, a high school student, received the text Wednesday night.”

"It will be a dark four years"

Elon Musk’s daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson officially announces she is fleeing U.S. after Donald Trump win

Musk, who has previously said his daughter was “killed by the woke mind virus,” has been estranged from Wilson since 2022. That year, she legally changed her name and gender to distance herself from her father.

It's time for charities and for-good organisations to ditch X - a platform which helped grow and fund the Trump campaign - and move to alternatives where they aren't at the mercy of a single persons politics.

As a start, we're excited to be featured as an organisation which can help in this @BylineTimes article

There's a lot of hard work to be done, but we like hard work. Hard work is good work.

“So yes of course before people go to sleep on election night, he's going to go out there and claim victory, we know it. Now, it's going to be... way less threatening than it was before... because you're watching this old ghost go through this same old stupid move again, and everybody knows it was a stupid false move the last time, it will look even stupider this time…”

When a #Florida Farmer-Legislator Turned Against #Immigration, the Consequences Were Severe. But Not for Him.

For a lawmaker’s #political career and his farm, a federal visa program was a lifeline.

For a young father trying to meet his son’s mounting medical needs, that same lifeline failed him.

Our top story: Compared to 2022, there’s less bullishness now about a coming wave, but the Republican Party still sees the region as part of the party’s future and is continuing its outreach there. In response, #Democrats, along the same lines as Vice President Kamala Harris, are now appealing to the moderate and undecided. texasobserver.org/rio-grande-v…
