    Chatting with yesterday who shared this astonishing multimedia story from way back in 2013. I judge digital journalism awards as a side hustle and honestly this would still do just fine in 2021.

    "Facebook sent flawed data to misinformation researchers". "The data included the interactions of only about half of Facebook’s U.S. users ... not all of them as the company had said" What a f*ck-up this is, and really good spotted it.

    This excellent thread - including how payments under the -catalysed big tech agreement with Australian media are helping amplify NewsCorp content - is rich, detailed, and a must-read.

    So yes, News Corp are going to be doing a 'pro net zero' campaign And no, it isn't all that surprising. The days of denial are done - delay and greenwashing are the core goals, and 'net zero by 2050' fits the bill *perfectly* New piece ->

    Real estate was an early non-reader revenue win for NewsCorp, which began acquiring REA in 2001 and now owns 61%. In the media revenue bloodbath of 2020, property helped keep Newscorp in the black [source: ] 1/2

    REA is now controlled by the Murdochs with a market capitalisation of $20.5 billion. Back in 1995 it was started in a Manningham garage. Check out this fascinating interview with the founders at that East Doncaster property:

    True for this NY Times reporter as well in many cases. The secrecy, the low standards for transparency, may be Australian democracy's greatest flaw.

    ever tried getting answers from a govt department? it usually goes like this: 1. Phone call 2. "Can you put that in an email?" 3. Sends list of detailed questions, with context 4. Vague, single line response that doesn't answer any of your questions

    This is a cool idea if you're a generalist news reporter looking to improve your science journalism game. Peer-to-peer mentoring has really come into its own in 2021 and this is one of many exciting uses of the learning approach.

    TON is forming a Slack community to help connect reporters who don't consider sci/health/env their beat - but want to improve their skills - with a group of experienced science journalists and editors. If you're this reporter, apply to join by 9/22:

    . has been promising to do more to prevent attacks and threats to women on this platform for years. When a leading public service journalist has to take down her entire account, it's obvious Twitter's current approaches are *still* not working.
