Fox News being a completely dishonest propaganda outlet in every single way except for running a totally straight-arrow unbiased polling operation is one of American media's longest running and most hilarious bits. bsky.app/profile/mari...

Nice thing: So, I've genuinely been more and more disenchanted with being an entertainer lately, mostly because the Internet just relentlessly pushes artists toward hustle culture instead of craft. I've been drifting more into books, but of course trad. publishers have to care about Internet too.

this is true and bad but part of the problem is that *the market* also seems to be treating this as "distant crisis mostly of interest to nerds that will work itself out" which is a deeply confusing signal that is not entirely the fault of the press in this case
