Has there ever been a #WorldPressFreedomDay that mattered this much? Give Donald #Trump credit for reminding us of how important it is to not take #pressfreedom for granted. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOJb...

Just another reminder of why it's important to support media that belongs to the public -- and not to the politicians who sometimes think they are the boss. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

@boblannon.bsky.social hey I sent you a gmail: a college friend and his wife are in Berlin for a few months. Wondering if you can meet them and show them what’s good.

H/T to Editor & Publisher for this important podcast on what you can do to support #pressfreedom. www.editorandpublisher.com/stories/pres...

OK so #Trump doesn’t like the #freepress. But does he really want to go down in history as a 21st century Judas Iscariot?Save yourself, Donald, by saving the #journalists #VOA #RadioFreeEurope #RadioFreeAsia #RadioMarti

So nice to see that America still has a Voice:

There are so many important lessons we can draw from the saga of @mariaressa.bsky.social. Thank you to @columjournreview.bsky.social and Sheila Coronel for pointing them out.

This is a huge loss for people who support #transparency in government, which is everyone who supports #democracy. The counter-narrative is #propaganda by folks who’d rather return to the #DarkAges

Hmm. And here I thought Trump & Co. were against #cancelculture.

A one-time reporter for @nydailynews.com, I teamed up with my former @nypost.com competitor @vincentmorris.bsky.social to make the case for #solidarity among #journalists. Newsroom rivalry should stop at #authoritarianism's edge.

Dear @pulitzerprizes.bsky.social board: I hereby nominate @anntelnaes.bsky.social for your first ever prize for a spiked cartoon.

Let's make this the last Christmas that the family of #AustinTice spends without him. Here's hoping #PresidentBiden can get the job done. #FreeAustinTice.

Kudos to @knightfdn.bsky.social for funding a new fellowship to help journalists at risk. Pleased that @jskstanford.bsky.social is a partner w/Lynette Clemetson at the Knight-Wallace Fellowships, Kathy Keily at Mizzou J School & Lucy Westcott @CPJ, led by @joelsimonsays.bsky.social @CUNY J School.

Sore winner alert! This would be a hilarious waste of Trump’s money were it not a page out of the dictator’s handbook so ably described by @mariaressa.bsky.social : Sue #journalists not to win but to cripple them with legal fees.

Stop the presses! I bring you glad tidings about…politics. Here is hoping that our children teach their parents well. H/T @ezrabitterman.bsky.social (and Crosby, Sills, Nash and Young)

It's long past time. The end of a nightmare in #Syria should be the end of the #AustinTice family's as well. #BringAustinHome.

First time I’ve posted a column here. Let’s see how it goes. @mujschool.bsky.social

OK I realize that #EmmanuelMacron isn't Mr. Popularity in #France, but after pulling of the most spectacular #Olympics ever, he presided over the stunning restoration of #NotreDame. How many other world leaders have left such a legacy of beauty?

Is it just me or is AI Siri turning into a 1980s TV anchor — so preoccupied with happy talk. Me: “Hey Siri, how much time is left on my timer?” Siri: “Good evening, Kathy.”

#MakeDemocracyGreatAgain. Has a certain ring to it. #marioncountyrecord #localnews #journalismmatters

No surprises here but here’s hoping the Senate shows us lame ducks can fly. It would be nice to bolster the one remaining guardrail before you go.

Unusual. Cruel. But perhaps not unexpected when a #freepress is disparaged in the home of the #FirstAmendment.
