Hey, folks who write alt-text or focus on accessibility: I know it's (generally) best practice not to say "photo of" under a photo, but we SHOULD say "painting" or "cartoon." Question: Should we say ".gif" or "animation"? (I know it shouldn't loop more than 5 sec.) Citations welcome! TY!

Additions to AP style include "AI slop" & "remigration" (the idea that migrants can/should be coerced/forced to return to their countries of origin; avoid using except in direct quotes). Doxing has 1 X. Healthcare is 1 word. AND an animal is no longer "it" if you know their sex! (Sky is a HE!)

I have been publishing YA novels for 20 years. I have seen a lot of nonsense written about the category, but this HarperCollins imprint has set a new bar. If anything is “cynical” or tailored for “shock value,” it’s this campaign, which might as well be from Moms for Liberty. This is loathsome.

This week is the first at the Daily News since Heath Freeman's Alden Capital laid off our entire print production staff. It's embarrassing to open the paper we work so hard for each day and find mistakes like this. Is this the level of editing New Yorkers can count on going forward?

This statement from Deepak Chopra (whose MANY emails to Epstein, post-2008 conviction, included "bring your girls") is crap. "Saddened" and "regret" are about CHOPRA, not about how others have been harmed. All he's guilty of is poor judgment! He's a hero! 0/6 in our framework for a good apology.

LinkedIn post from Deepak Chopra, reading: "I am deeply saddened by the suffering of the victims in this case, and I unequivocally condemn abuse and exploitation in all forms. I want to be clear: I was never involved in, nor did I participate in, any criminal or exploitative conduct. Any contact I had was limited and unrelated to abusive activity. Some past email exchanges have surfaced that reflect poor judgment in tone. I regret that and understand how they read today, given what was publicly known at the time. My focus remains on supporting accountability, prevention, and efforts that protect and support survivors."

List of the six and a half steps to a good apology: 1. Say you're sorry. 2. For what you did. 3. Show you understand why it was bad. 4. Don't make excuses. 5. Say why this won't happen again. 6. Make amends. 6.5. LISTEN to those you harmed.

Hey, media, here's your headline: "Video shows Trump and Noem lying about ICE's killing of woman in Minneapolis." It's not a "he said, she said." There's video that shows ICE wasn't acting in self-defense. Facts exist. Everything isn't a matter of opinion. Stop being cowards.
