Drop Site News · Marked for Assassination: Gaza Journalists on Israeli Hit List Refuse to Stop Reporting
If you know any #journalists ask them to pitch an article about US #news outlets which are choosing not to mention the #handsoff events.
Looking at you, #washingtontimes - I mean come on, do you think your readers might see 100,000 people in the streets and think "there must be a sale on somewhere?"

@randahl mic drops are from Obama's era. To do a mic drop, you need an audience who understands what a mic drop is. If all we have is a high number of #MAGA fanatics, a murder of people formally known as #journalists, #democrats who find a backbone only when they can kick Reps in the shins and hide away, and a majority of apathetic denizens, there is no micdrop. Just a gigantic thump and unbearable feedback, with a lonely childlike clap at the back.

"Teams that fulfilled requests for government documents lost their jobs on Tuesday as part of the Trump administration's 10,000-person staff cuts at the Department of Health and Human Services. Their work, mandated by Congress since the 1960s under the Freedom of Information Act or FOIA, gives the public a view of the inner workings of federal health agencies."

Reuters Quietly Removes Images by Photojournalist Who was Kissed by Hamas’ Sinwar
Reuters has also removed images by Moahmmed Fayq Abu Mostafa, who was exposed by HonestReporting for infiltrating Israel during Hamas’ massacre on October 7, 2023 — as was Eslaiah — and for publicly laughing at the atrocities he’d witnessed before calling on Gazans to go to the border and “grab a settler.”

I know its April 1st, and impossible to be taken seriously today, but for the love of everything, journalists, stop using the passive voice and the question headline.
Just STOP
The Nation, looking at you, because that's what I'm (trying) to read right now.
