The old guard in the journalism field tells us that we must project an image of neutrality at all costs, even at the expense of honesty about who we are and what we value. Subjective judgments shape which stories journalists tell, what questions we ask, and whose voices we think are worth hearing.

Will Jewish folks who criticize the Israeli gov get flagged for antisemitism?

I'm descended from ppl who came to the US fleeing the holocaust. I grew up learning that it could happen again, and normal-seeming people could participate.

"antisemitism" as euphemism for anti-genocidal gov is twisted

#FoxNews spreads #disinformation. In this attack on #trans #healthcare, a fringe extremist group is cited as a medical authority. The group was started by 1 guy, who seems to have chosen its name to sound like the title of a large-scale medical institution & hoped nobody would notice the difference

DHS official Tricia McLaughlin claims on Fox News that the Maryland father who the administration mistakenly sent to an El Salvador gulag is "a member of MS-13 who was involved in human trafficking." (There is no evidence for either of these claims.)

Never in my decade of filing FOIA requests have I gotten a response like this. Customs and Border Protection denies my request, saying "Due to law enforcement sensitivities we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of records." No exemption cited, no name of who wrote this.

Anatomy of a disinformation campaign - Fox wants you to confuse this hate group with a respected medical org. They are counting on no one noticing.
