“Media Offenders” – this term should not refer to journalists who anger Trump with their reporting, but to the Darth #Trump administration itself.
It constantly attacks #media coverage, disparages and threatens media professionals.
Trump and his accomplices are the real “Media Offenders.”
There is…

This Netflix holiday rom-com is secretly an environmentalist fantasy
Don't watch "A Merry Little Ex-Mas" for the romance. Watch it for the sustainability messages, which shine as bright as LED Christmas lights.

Seid heute ist das MediaLab.NRW hier im Fediverse angekommen, via Brid.gy.
Wir planen aktuell das nächste #MediaCampNRW, vermutlich im Februar in Bochum. Eingeladen sind alle Kreativen und Medienmacher. Stay tuned.

"Trump’s latest tariff TACO probably won’t make your life more affordable"
First time I see mainstream media use TACO. In both the headline and the story text. 🌮👏

The hidden carbon cost of reality TV shows like The Traitors
Reality TV isn’t the villain of the climate story – but it is a powerful amplifier of taste.

I was reading this funny story about a Jeopardy! question that featured Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe.

It features a link to his X where he (manually) recorded the Answer/Question. So then I ended up on his X profile.
He has 33,000 followers.
He posted 12 minutes ago.

Like... what good is 33 000 followers if less than 1/3rd potentially see your post and you get nearly no real engagement?
My Theory: While Politicians think they are using X/FB because “that's where the people are”, the data shows that the "people" beyond clicking ‘follow' never actually see them or engage with that person. Instead, what the profile is actually used for is self promotion. A known place where the *media* can pick up the relevant happenings of a politician.
Which then begs the question. Would said Mayor of Ottawa be able to do exactly the same thing, and engage with the same or more constituents on ottawa.place?

Weird to see Sky News, owned by Rupert Murdoch who has no formal authority in the UK but uses his newspapers to control narratives and push right wing content and politicians he favors, complain that Elon Musk has no formal authority in the UK and yet has the power to control narratives and push right-wing content, extreme content, and politicians Musk favors.
🤔
Still, interesting report pointing out those things, and it all just highlights how important it is that these spaces have no owners.

If anyone has a line on a free-or-near-free source of flatscreen LCD monitors with ATSC antenna connections, please do let me know. Would like to build a little ‘over-the-air’ TV monitoring studio.
These little LG 24LJ4540s are perfect.
Two dozen of them would be ideal but 12 would be a good start.

I normally try to avoid american politics like the plague. There's nothing I can do about it.
But this piece. Wow.
These guys have a lot in common with Iran's clerics.

The spiked “Inside CECOT” 60 Minutes segment aired on the Global TV app in Canada last night!
Someone recorded it bootleg style here! Now we will know if it comes back on air, if they were forced to edit it… and if so, what.
