We need to go beyond linking to archive.is versions of misleading media articles. We need a non-US website that lets editing groups copy and *annotate* media articles, denying them ads, and restoring missing facts, context, full quotes, papers, and linked sources.

"an oral history of the rationality community by rationalists" would be an amazing resource if enough rationalists wanted to coordinate on it, there is a legitimately cool story there about e.g. the route by which AI became a mainstream topic of discussion

Replying to

Open annotations are a way broader tool than just NYT. Yes, communities should also make their own content. But that content should be available for other groups to edit, annotate, curate.
