jeanmnicholson.bsky.social @jeanmnicholson.bsky.social · 11/08/2026I'm kind of speechless on editorial policy for news in most outlets. Lazy parroting "journalism" abounds. And they call it the silly season. 000

jeanmnicholson.bsky.social @jeanmnicholson.bsky.social · 28/04/2026It's 7.20pm now - and we're still on parliamentary vote on C4News.
