Well, after 2024, I think Dick Wolf got it right. The media failed in every possible way to convey the stakes of what was happening. The profession should feel profound shame and disgust—at itself.

Why I’m begging TV showrunners to stop writing journalists as villains - Poynter
I will stop shouting at the TV screen when journalists are portrayed with all their virtues and vices — not as caricatures

What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

When people sigh about “these communities are dying” what they fail to consider is that they are dying for very good reasons, including that the people who live there are doing their level best to kill their own community (and also other communities) every day.
Something notable in this article is how much the life long locals don’t seem to give a shit. Which was an entirely predictable outcome if you've spent any amount of time among people like this
How life changed in a rural town in Virginia that lost its sole health clinic after the passage of Trump’s megabill. The residents voted overwhelmingly for Trump in 2024, and now they’re suffering for it.

there is something uniquely galling about the sense that these are the special people, the important people, the people that are above criticism. that they can have their foibles, but that it is always for them a game, and that you may never constrain them

something that has started to crystalize for me about journalistic class solidarity in the Nuzzi scandal and the religious exemption stuff is how the french revolutionaries (the radicals, not the liberal nobles) felt about the nobility

lmao thanks WP
Though Americans might be clamoring for relief on groceries, housing and energy costs, economists say there’s a bigger downside to falling prices: Ironically, falling prices can both signal a recession and trigger one.

Words mean things. Poor indicates a consistent lack of access to basic necessities.
Not the fact that you wanted a Sprite and you had to get a Chek.
It also doesn’t mean you don’t deserve your Sprite.
You do not have to claim poverty to acknowledge lack or to advocate for more and better.

You can reason with people who are curious but un- or ill-informed: I gave an A to a student in a medieval history class who asked me on the first day when Game of Thrones took place, because she read the material, worked hard, and produced well-argued essays.
