Important article & analysis/exchanges below. I’d only add that it makes the case for protecting the BBC - and for the BBC to work to deserve our protection - all the stronger.
If you are running a click-driven non-paywalled news website without a super smart niche it’s so over. The traffic isn’t coming back.

I agree.
God I feel for the people of America. Particularly those who didn’t vote for him. We’ve had years of viciously useless Tory govts breaking things that matter to us and leaving the country in a sorry mess. But Trump and his team are frenziedly deranged. God knows how America survives this.

All of the above
Still no Brexiter replies here. Some options...
1. Brexiters just don't join Bluesky, not even to try to troll all of us!
2. 99% of the Brexiters on X/Twitter were fake. Bots.
3. The few remaining Brexiters are so racist/conspiracist/etc that they just get banned.
Which do you think it is?
