As the fictional character Billy Ray Valentine in the movie Trading Places famously said to the Duke futures brokers:
“Sounds to me like you guys are a couple of bookies.”

A🧵
Our latest:

News orgs integrating #Kalshi & #Polymarket etc. are “Engaging what many consider “a couple of bookies” (at least metaphorically) to predict world events for natl news orgs—whose mission is to inform the public—is a recipe for disaster.”

Gambling as Journalism—Shall We Gamify the News?
https://mediaanddemocracyproject.substack.com/p/gambling-as-journalismshall-we-gamify

It is particularly grotesque when the betting is on matters of life and death, but any use of these markets central to reporting damages the news outlet. Disturbing to see #WSJ, #CNN and others using them.

Should one of the TV-conglomerates that pressured Disney to take #JimmyKimmel off the air be allowed to get bigger & *more* powerful?

We think no!

We’re against the broadcast-industry merger of Nexstar-TEGNA.

See the letter to the FCC we’ve signed w/allies opposed to this merger. #NoNexstarMerger

“Secretary Noem spoke to the media and she said, among other things, that [ICE agents] are ‘doing everything correctly,’” The Hill’s Niall Stanage said to Leavitt at her Thursday press conference. “Thirty-two people died in ICE custody last year, 170 U.S citizens were detained by ICE, and Renee Good was shot in the head and killed by an ICE agent. How does that equate to them doing everything correctly?”

This is a well framed question:

Corporate media (esp. AGSulzberger NYTimes) are failing to communicate the reality of the brutality of ~2,500 militarized government agents in MN.

“A campaign of organized brutality against the people of Minnesota by our own federal government.” Walz

What precautions FCC took to insulate itself from DOGE?
How frequently has Carr communicated with Musk?
Were any of those conversations about pending or future FCC proceedings?
