The entire subscription/patronage model that journalism is trying (well, forced) to move towards is predicated on the idea that journalism is a public good. But I think the nature of that public good is becoming clearer in this moment. 1/n

Thread of the day already.
So here’s one of my favorite details about the very very very tiresome and thoroughly discredited vaccine-autism thing.

Not only has it been Looked Into it has been MAXIMALLY Looked Into. In fact, there is almost nowhere left to look.

In 2019, a study came out that was simply titanic…
President-elect Trump, who has promoted the debunked theory that vaccines cause autism for more than a decade, suggested on Sunday that he would have his choice for health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., look into the issue.

Did a talk on journalism to undergraduates. Learned very interesting stuff about how youngsters consume and interpret information, and how they judge the news media (trigger alert for any journalists out there whose core belief is that we're important).

Has BlueSky considered a rebrand to ‘twitter dot com’. It’s my understanding that this is available.

More, from my colleague Glenn McConnell. Terrible that we have journalists indulging in "persistent and forceful questioning". How dare they.

Disclaimer: Aaron is a mate of mine, and one of the finest journalists I've ever met.
