With the requirement that everyone who wants to use Tweedeck has to be on twitter blue, @elonmusk has delivered the final nail the coffin to what was once the only viable alternative to Zuck dominating the English-speaking social space. Bravo.

Big thanks to @TheRealPBarry for stepping ABC News Daily through all the recent Murdoch mayhem with his always insightful perspective. Catch it here: abc.net.au/radio/programs/ab…

What Murdoch's latest drama tells us about his empire - ABC listen

All journos repeat after me: "If I ever become a PR person I do solemnly swear not to force journalists to unnecessarily 'put that request in an email' after they've just clearly explained their request on the phone." The end.

News sites like the @smh don't need to be quoted on @ABCmediawatch to defend their journalism. They have their own megaphone--as you can see. But we did summarise their defence and quote from the SMH editorial. Fair and reasonable IMHO. smh.com.au/politics/federal/…

Never ceases to amaze me how the US is transfixed by 'a motive' in every shooting. Even the highly respected @washingtonpost couldn't help include this line in a story about .... a 6 year old. A SIX year old.

The Liberal Party – a retirement village for male baby boomers

If you're upset by Zelensky in his olive drab fatigues today, wait till you see Winston Churchill wearing his air raid outfit to the White House.

One of your companies is under an FTC consent decree. Auto safety watchdog NHTSA is investigating another for killing people. And you’re spending your time picking fights online. Fix your companies. Or Congress will.
