#The89Percent Project is a global #media collaboration aimed at highlighting the fact that the vast majority of people in the world care about climate change and want their governments to do something about it. Coverage started on #EarthDay and will lead to the #COP30 UN climate summit in Brazil.

#Media, #newsrooms, and #journalists can join with their stories! 89percent.org/

A top official in the Department of Labor this week informed all staff members that they could face criminal charges if they speak to journalists, former employees or others about agency business.

“This message will serve as your only warning,” the memo stated.

2/2 "Bill Owens gave a dire warning about Trump’s control over the network and his fear that #CBS and #Paramount were likely gearing up to reach a settlement with #Trump on his ridiculous lawsuit. The fact that #BillOwens could no longer work at #60Minutes tells you just how bad it is now at CBS. No wonder news networks aren’t showing the mass protests, the town halls, and the shadow hearings."

Let me tell you about a problem. Good, honest journalism costs money. It requires hard work and effort. But AI generated slop, click-bait, and engagement inducing lies do not. Because of this the good news sources lock information behind a paywall. This drastically reduces the dissemination of this information. Meanwhile, junk is free to spread like wildfire. I do not have a solution to this, but wanted to highlight the problem. #journalism #disinformation #capitalism

"On UK journalists’ employment conditions:

- The proportion of UK journalists with permanent contracts dropped from 74% in 2015 to 65% in 2023. Over the same period, the proportion of freelancers grew from 17% to 28%.
- In 2023, the median annual income for UK journalists was between £37,501 and £45,000 after tax. Men, those aged 40 or over, those whose main employer was a broadcaster, and those who worked for publicly owned media all had higher salaries on average.
- Gender inequalities in the profession persisted, with men earning higher average salaries and being more likely to have a permanent contract and hold a top management role.
- Most UK journalists worked from home at least three days per week, with some variation by gender, age, and main employer."

Reuters Institute for the Study of JournalismUK journalists in the 2020s: Executive summaryThis report is based on a survey conducted between September and November 2023 with a representative sample of 1,130 UK journalists, a follow-up to a similar survey in 2015 (Thurman et al. 2016). The survey was carried out as part of the third wave of the Worlds of Journalism Study project.1 Our analysis of the survey data and of over 200 other relevant sources of information has produced numerous findings.

“Yesterday saw the last edition of the Guardian-owned Observer. Tomorrow, after more than three decades as a core part of what is a non-profit organisation, it’s being “transferred” into private ownership.

“Transferred” is corporate-speak for “given away”, if you’re wondering.”

—Carole Cadwalladr, now ex-Guardian/Observer journalist.

The Broligarchy are a threat to everything. Fight back. I’ll miss the Guardian, but the ‘new’ version is not the real thing. We lost a great newspaper.

“Next week’s Observer will be published by Tortoise Media. Who is Tortoise Media? We still don’t know. Both the Guardian & Tortoise Media refused to disclose its full list of investors and a few weeks ago, Tortoise’s editor and press office declined to answer questions as to whether it has taken Saudi money.”

“(we can’t call it a sale because the Guardian actually gave the organisation away with £5m in loose change)”

@w7voa Those of us who care about journalistic independence must find new outlets to support.

Chime in if you have other highly factual, independent media outlets to suggest.

A #FreePress is a hallmark of a functioning democracy.

The 89 Percent Project is a year-long global journalistic effort to explore a pivotal but little-known fact about #climatechange:

The overwhelming majority of the world’s people want governments to take stronger action.

But that fact is not reflected in our news coverage, which helps explain why the 89% don’t know that they are the global majority.
