The Times is using these trash "news analysis" articles to invent a narrative in which the DSA is a liability and the left poses an electoral threat to Democrats. This is only true if the mainstream media keeps framing it like it is!

A data-driven analysis of how the New York Times's treatment of transgender subjects shifted "from rights-based framing toward more skeptical, conflict-driven coverage" since 2014, centering trans-rights opponents over trans people themselves. www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

The New York Times helped turn trans rights into political controversy, analysis finds
A new data investigation says the paper of record increasingly framed transgender rights as a debate instead of a lived reality.

If you throw a cool enough pass it should count as an assist even if your bozo teammate bricks the shot. That’s not your fault. You did great.

when you price everything for fanatics and diehards, you really leave out the possibility of casual fans deciding to go on a whim as something to do, and those are people you have a possibility of converting to being bigger fans if you give them a fun show - that's simply how you get repeat business

that said I think there may be flagging mid-career artists who should consider gambling on a cheap loss leader ticketing model to regain audience goodwill and just go in hard on merch sales - The Cure did this out of the goodness of their hearts and I think it paid off well for them as a legacy act

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

A friend who worked in Albany once told me: “Liberals always think there’s some bureaucratic fix—independent commissions, etc—that will make democracy fair. But the GOP will ratfuck anything. The only thing that matters is to organize and take power.”

who calls the shots where you get your news? defector.com/products
Who calls the shots where you get your news?

Is it the dull, eyebrowless son of one of the richest men in the world? Is it shareholders, for whom it's expedient to roll over in the face of nuisance lawsuits by the gangster state? Is it one of the private equity firms grinding media companies to dust to eke out returns?

Is it someone who will fire a journalist for accurately describing Charlie Kirk’s beliefs? Is it a severely confused Brit? Is it the “rogue employee” who reprogrammed their company’s chatbot to urgently inform users about the “white genocide happening in South Africa”?

Not if you read Defector. The 27 of us who work here own the company together. We have no outside investors, so we have no mandate to maximize shareholder value. We don’t take money from gambling companies. We aren’t out to fatten up and get acquired.

Defector is uncompromised, a rarity in modern media. When we report, criticize, and analyze, it’s coming from us, not someone upstairs. We answer only to our subscribers. Become one!
