My latest piece for @jsource.bsky.social, Beyond the Famine Frame, pulls back the curtain on how editorial decisions, political pressure, and industry gatekeeping have eroded trust — and why the famine narrative isn't the shift in coverage some think it is.

1/3 Pretty ripe example of how newsrooms get strongarmed into compliance - access in exchange for editorial obedience. The pressure isn’t always this blatant, but the playbook stays the same: withhold access, apply pressure, and force journalists to choose between integrity and staying in the room.

What in the holy trinity of white supremacy, evangelical pearl-clutching, fragile masculinity is this? Did the patriarchy take such a devastating L that an executive order had to be drafted out of sheer spite? The way this man crumbles at the thought of fairness is almost impressive.
