My grandmother’s family was murdered in the chambers of Auschwitz. She survived and told me never let it get that far. Make them shoot you in public before they murder you in hiding. Stand up for others. Never cave in fear of the Nazis or the holocaust will happen again.

Those of us in the media saw this happening in real time in the late ‘80s (when my career was just starting) &

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

For those who thankfully have left Twitter, just know the site under Musk now fully belongs to Nazis and white nationalists.
This the present and future of the GOP btw. White supremacy, misogyny, cruelty & a delight in violence.
It's going to be an ugly rough road ahead but we have the majority.

Another week has passed with the DNC refusing to actually hire a spokesperson, or investing a dime in message penetration infrastructure.
And then they get mad that the base doesn’t trust them.
