Bam. Department of Defense loses in its attempt to defend its unconstitutional new press policy. https://t.co/sOuyLwzWGG
Great news. The DC district Court agrees. 💯 and as the Court noted, times like this make the importance of access for a free and plural press even more vital. https://t.co/e7ynAeXMx3
I see so many creators complain that “someone beat me to (publishing) this video.” But if your video is interchangeable with everyone else’s, that’s the real problem - not who posted first.

[nodding] totally ... yes... in particular it's unfair when @BobbyAllyn beats me to a scoop
Many freelance writers get paid between $0.02 to $0.10 per word. This is a terrible way to make money writing because word count is a poor measure of value. Here's why:
The irony of the $PSKY CBS news cuts are that news does not drive retrans and should be sold or shuttered entirely to help fund NFL costs CBS already shuttered late night, news should be next to go - makes you...

The "CBS Evening News" dipping below 4 million viewers must be setting off alarm bells inside the network. But when you alienate the audience, loyal viewers will leave. Watch Power Lines on YouTube: https://youtu.be/g4zHWZFi9ec?si=2fbPGf9Rlu5jxiCx
I’m obviously not unbiased here, but good on Disney to bring on Sara/CNBC talent to The View. Helps to expand all of our worlds.
CNN has been experimenting with new formats this week, including Anderson in rolled-up sleeves, massive desk microphones, and a physical map, channeling early Edward R. Murrow-era broadcast.... Experiment will continue today with Jake Tapper broadcasting from his office.
It's never been easier to invent your own version of history. Say something online enough, have a big enough audience, and for a lot of people your version of the facts becomes the truth. Our politicians must be...

I want to support good journalists and good writers but there is simply no way to subscribe to every article or newspaper or magazine or newsletter, and it sucks for everyone because writers want readers for their stuff and readers...
Making the hard, unpopular decisions that MUST be made 👏👏 @bariweiss $PSKY Paying for the NFL means a lot of existing money losing programming needs to be shuttered
I'll have more on the CBS News cuts in tonight's email, but for now... the cuts are affecting a number of correspondents (will give them time to announce the news themselves) and hitting the Washington, D.C., bureau especially hard.
I'm set to join @RobHartWBBM on @WBBMNewsradio in a couple minutes. We will wrap up another rough week for investors, but there are some potential positives out there. @Giersh https://t.co/zwwYslTFVM
i stopped watching sports with my kids because everything is an ad for betting now, even the tv channel itself i know almost a dozen close friends who have lost all their money on betting apps
CNN has a paywall protecting its stories. Search for the headline on Google, and the AI summary gives you the whole story. Seems like a problem.

Since everyone is complaining about the X algorithm, I would like to remind you that all other social media platforms practice HEAVY censorship, allow extortion, and use AI against creators. I think X is just trying to figure out spam/ai...

CBS News also is shutting down @CBSNewsRadio, which serves approximately 700 stations, and laying off those staffers https://t.co/K65d7htHgJ via @variety

Netflix is paying the KPop Demon Hunters directors like elite TV showrunners AND giving them a share of merch sales to return for a sequel. All the details ⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/nO22PPaCo7
IMO: Highly leveraged @NXSTMediaGroup could be buying a melting ice cube that can’t withstand fierce competitive Big Tech vectors that result in diminished ad and retransmission consent revenue fueled by rampant cord cutting. If things like the 39% cap get...
Do I know anyone here who has worked in or around creators/influencers whose IP is being licenced by a network, platform, or brand? (For an article.)
Bari Weiss and Tom Cibrowski just sent an email to CBS News staff notifying them of layoffs coming today. https://t.co/qPYMcr9FwU
The fix was in at the @FCC & @JusticeATR to approve the massive Nexstar-TEGNA deal. People need to know how abnormal and illegal the process was. I talk about it here: https://t.co/rmcV0J9w0N
Example of a manual action being removed for this publisher. Looks like they cleaned up the problem relatively quickly and had the manual action removed. Now showing back up across Google surfaces. Of course, they probably will not return...
The creation of state media continues at the local level under Carr's FCC. This is even more dangerous than Ellison Inc., for people still watch local TV. FCC approves merger of local television owners Nexstar and Tegna as two lawsuits seek...
AI made content cheap. So founders did what made sense: they produced as much as possible. 500 articles. 1,000 articles. Pump the numbers. Numbers went up, then went all the way down. The problem wasn't using AI. The problem was using AI without strategy.
Is this a Netflix true crime series I missed What rabbit hole am I down?!
They’re trying to ram through KOSA, a full Section 230 repeal, and a slew of other censorship and surveillance provisions under the guise of “cracking down on AI” and a tom of dumbass leftists are falling for it.

This headline should go down in history as proof of the ludicrous way mainstream media uses the word "experts."
Both the DOJ and the FCC have approved the merger of Tegna and Nexstar, a deal that would create the largest owner of local stations in the US. https://t.co/BcB7uDquKX
Didja know that X (née Twitter) has an area where you can see the most popular tweets by region or language? It's fascinating stuff to explore, as I demonstrate in this tutorial: https://t.co/8o4AIegPOv #x #twitter @X @twitter https://t.co/nEFlm1wDxd

To be a successful writer in 2026 you need to be both chronically online and offline.
Just about everyone I know has jumped on Substack or otherwise started a newsletter. Most of these efforts don't amount to anything. It's not wasted time (not necessarily), but the newsletter is probably not achieving the writers' goals either, assuming they...
