Welp. RFK jr got what he wanted thanks to this careless journalism: headlines written by nation's top media outlets promoting an unproven link between covid vaccines & childhood fatalities. All the next-day rewrites & fact checks won't get nearly as much play as the initial anti-vaxx propaganda.
News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

This is why you should always post about books you like (or wrote! or published!) on Bluesky. I'd say that a solid half of the books I buy now are based on seeing someone post something here.
The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

I can't think of any point in recent history when someone could reasonably say Haitians *wouldn't* meet requirements for TPS--the country has never really been allowed to develop a functioning government, and the last time it had something resembling one, the US helped overthrow it
the requirement is, of course, “be white” amp.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...
Trump says Haiti no longer meets requirements for TPS. Haitians have to leave
The Department of Homeland Security said TPS for Haiti ends Feb. 3, 2026, affecting over half a million people who may face return to gang-controlled Port-au-Prince.

a PSA: most nonprofit newsrooms right now are probably participating in the NewsMatch program RIGHT NOW. That’s a program funded by a few foundations that “matches” your end-of-year donation.
If you set up $10 monthly, that literally unlocks $120 from NewsMatch.
So who could you support?
