🧪 #Palaeolithic scicomm : words & visuals matter in reporting. Based on Google News results, all but three major news sites used some variation of "human" or "people" to report this. Those that didn't? BBC & The Guardian used "man" (now altered)... and GB news used "cavemen" (I'd bet deliberately)

This brings back a few memories… well researched @jimdickinson.bsky.social wonkhe.com/blogs/whatev...

There is a big assymetry between the media's ability to report on Nigel Farage's racist slurs as a teenager and the lack of interest in reporting Lowe's decisions about legitimising the overtly racist right.

From a patriotic Brit largely based in Thailand too. #reform #ukpolitics 🇬🇧

For nearly a decade, sceptics have dismissed allegations that Bannon’s Cambridge Analytica and Prigozhin’s troll farms successfully intervened in the Brexit referendum and Trump’s election in 2016 - now the argument is over pdjukes.substack.com/p/how-online...

If you want to stop doom scrolling on an evening watch subtitled foreign TV programmes, often much better than a lot of the current English language dross being served up and reading the subs means you can't read your phone at the same time.

Mahmood is essentially saying to racists "It's completely understandable that my presence offends you. So I'll make sure there aren't too many more of me, then hopefully you'll feel a bit better" (but they won't of course).

So important! Even more important is the general danger that extreme wealth and power is bringing to influence democracy.

Quick, easy and a great tweak of a classic comfort food!

Huh? How do you do a "balancing" program when one candidate did an insurgency trying to overturn the election and the other...didn't? Would Prescott have been satisfied with an hour of people telling BBC journalists why they didn't try and stoke a riot to overturn Trump's second win?

A national newspaper journalist went on a British TV channel to claim police stats showed asylum-seekers committed 44% of sex crimes in Dorset. This shocking claim was treated as fact by the channel which promoted the clip on social media where it was amplified by AI. Except... it's bollocks.

"China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels. This trend will continue simply because renewables are cheap; if you doubt the appeal, count the solar panels on Pakistani roofs. "

"China can produce almost a terawatt of renewable-energy capacity in a year. That is enough to supply as much energy as more than 300 big nuclear-power plants." www.economist.com/leaders/2025... I love The Economist's bullishness here
