Data centers IN SPACE! 

Acritically repeated by every news source. 

Modern journalism is PR for the rich. 

In the UK, it's because we have a monoculture. 80% of journalists come from professional and upper class backgrounds according to a new report from the NCTJ so they don't question authority or speak truth to power because it's their buddies!

Anyone reasonably trained knows this. But for reporters in their 20s, they've never seen or heard of anything else.

The world needs more action like the people of Quebec did to the suddenly former ceo of Air Canada.

The pilots were French, the jet flying from Montreal. The least that fucker could have done is have someone who knows French give the apology.

The pattern is obvious when you start looking for labor representation in mass media, like what were the labor leaders quoted saying regarding the same thing the capitalist executive is talking about, or how many articles quote just an executive vs how many just quote a labor leader.

Who believes billionaire media anymore? It's not journalism, just more spin/entertainment designed to ignite a fire of hate between american citizens for dollars. I say we build a guillotine for capitalism (the rest of the shitty billionaires will fall soon afterwards).

A very large part of tech and finance journalism consists of paid engagements.

Some genius got the idea to change the words at the top of an official statement from Public Relations Announcement to Press Release, and every news media fell for it.

His boss probably took credit for the idea, got a promotion and an enormous raise, and fired the guy who really thought if it.

I'm a ceo we're not smrt i mean smart

It's so resilient, too. Like, I can see not examining things that Zuckerberg says because they don't sound idiotic on first glance. And the US is very much "more money = better than" so why not give extra weight to anything some rich guy says.

But Musk and Trump say multiple obviously-stupid things every day, are visibly wrong all the time, and still get breathless treatment. "Wow, Elon Musk says he expects oil to go to $69/barrel by the end of the week! Does he know something others don't??"

List of professions with no credibility:

• Cop

• Politician

• Corporate journalist

"CEO said a thing!" journalism involves parroting the claims of a business leader or executive with absolutely no context, correction, or challenge whatsoever, no matter how elaborate the delusion.

Telling everyone Elon was a fraud for years was a painful time. Because people would just believe his endless claims that never turned out to be true. I could list a dozen major lies of his and they would just say "Just wait bro! He will save us all!". Ugh.

Then again it was still not as painful as today. Journalism is largely really really bad and that's in part to the fact most of it is owned by the obscene rich.

Society is looking more and more feudal by the day. Now we have the King’s CEO’s messengers.
