Chris O'Neill-Yates / @oneillyatescbc: The BBC is a the world's news service. A global UK brand. Is it perfect? No. But it's the envy of broadcasters around the world. Detractors should be careful what they wish for. It enhanced my experience of living in the UK immeasurably. #IlovetheBBC https://www.thetimes.co.uk/...
Mark Little / @marklittlenews: Destroying the world's leading public service media organisation in the midst of a global information crisis is an act of insanity https://www.thetimes.co.uk/...
Jonny Nelson / @fulljonnynelson: This would be another in a long line of truly horrible, idiotic things this country has done to itself lately https://twitter.com/...
Matthew d'Ancona / @matthewdancona: This is not old-fashioned Tory grumbling about the BBC. This is Trumpian vandalism. And if you think a ‘subscription system’ will deliver anything like the world's greatest public service broadcaster, think again. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/...
Huw Merriman MP / @huwmerriman: I'm not sure this vendetta against the #BBC is going to end well. No mention of it in our manifesto (where we actually promised to work with BBC to build new partnerships across globe) so I won't be supporting it. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/...
Mobeen Azhar / @mobeen_azhar: Public service broadcasting is a crucial part of our democracy. Curtailing it is part of a broader, US style plan for corporate control of all our press. Many of us (rightly) defend the #NHS and we must also actively defend the #bbc #savethebbc https://www.theguardian.com/ ...
Richard Berry / @richardberryuk: There's a lot here to challenge. It ignores the value of the BBC culturally or in stimulating production. To suggest slashing all radio but WS smacks of colonialism. Question news, sure, but to bring down the institution is the 1st step of a dictatorship https://www.theguardian.com/ ...
@jksteinberger: And so it was predicted, and so it has come to pass. We (= everyone who is not far right) need to fight back on this very, very hard.

Randeep Ramesh / @tianran: Looks like BBC TV is to be shrunk so that Netflix and Amazon can gain eyeballs. End of British TV culture. Oh and BBC RADIO is to be sold off to Rupert Murdoch by Boris Johnson. End of British Radio culture. Welcome to shock jocks and Fox bloody news https://twitter.com/...
Nadine Batchelor-Hunt / @nadinebh_: A really mixed bag on BBC reform. The one thing I 100% agree with is this sentence: “Johnson's aides also turned their fire on highly-paid BBC stars who made huge sums from outside work, suggesting they should be forced to donate the money to charity.” https://www.itv.com/...
Christian Christensen / @chrchristensen: I spent many years living in both the UK and US. I'll say one thing: US TV/radio news is a democratic and intellectual train-wreck because the US never had a viable, popular non-commercial alternative. Is the BBC perfect? No. But lose it at your peril. The aftermath will be ugly. https://twitter.com/...

Ralph Blackburn / @ralphblackburn: Number 10 attacks BBC presenters from earning money from second jobs, while Boris Johnson has spent most of his Parliamentary career being paid £250K-a-year for a newspaper column and accepting free £15K holidays in the Caribbean.

@casmudde: Scrapping “BBC License Fee” will do same to British public radio and tv as “right to work” laws have done to US trade unions.

Lawrence Freedman / @lawdavf: @FADCLDN @BurlM11 I have learned to treat Sunday Times scoops with pinches of salt. I doubt license fee can survive. But I don't think attacks on the BBC are popular and the current arrangement lasts until 2027. Lets see how many fights Johnson wants to take on.
Gerry Moore / @gerrymoore101: Johnson not only after the Judges he is aiming to deliver the BBC to his friends like Murdoch According to @thesundaytimes there are plans to bring in subscriptions scrap licence fee and sell off radio stations https://twitter.com/...

@thischrishorne: When corporate demanded newsroom cuts, we panicked to save “hard news” which makes sense, but it only highlighted local problems, often without solutions. Missing arts, culture and community, the civic narrative becomes “What a terrible place.” Why should anyone support that? https://twitter.com/...

Jim Iovino / @jimiovino: This is a thread worth reading if you're into local news. Newspapers lost their way because they often don't provide the information people want and need these days, especially in the formats they want them in. This problem can be solved. Chris has some ideas: https://twitter.com/...
Mike Rispoli / @rispolimike: I really feel for the journalists who have lost or fear of losing their jobs. I was one. But the cries of “Subscribe to your local paper” ignores that the local news crisis is a structural problem. It implies communties not paying is the root of the problem, not corporate greed.
Ross Dawson / @rossdawson: US local newspapers are in a “death spiral”, with in just recent news Buffett selling out and McClatchy going into Chapter 11, but they give massive value and need outside support, says @Sulliview of @WSJ https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Lainey Seyler / @lainey_seyler: Been a rough couple months for local news indeed, but “When you're looking for actual, original local reporting that fills a critical information need, it's still newspapers that are, by far, the primary source,” the Duke public-policy professor said. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Porter Anderson / @porter_anderson: Media: @Sulliview: “It's no exaggeration to say that much of the American newspaper industry is in a death spiral.

Joseph M. Adelman / @jmadelman: It is, yes, one of the points I make in #RevNetworks. During the Revolution, no one thought about newspapers as profitable, but everyone from their printers/editors to local elites viewed them as vital public forums, a town square in printed form. /5
Phil Meyer / @philmeyer: Digital-only news organizations in 2016 were providing only 10 percent of the original local reporting in the study's 100 communities. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Joseph M. Adelman / @jmadelman: 2nd point is one that Sullivan is astute about, but lots of news media figures still lag on: for much of the history of American journalism, newspapers were supported by their communities in ways analogous to what the Duke researchers in her piece describe. /4
Rachel Barnhart / @rachbarnhart: “It's an unpopular idea but what if propping up the legacy outfits is the most effective thing you can do to preserve local news?” Propping up @Gannett would be unpopular. Why would philanthropists line pockets of greedy executives? Go nonprofit. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Joseph M. Adelman / @jmadelman: That had political ramifications: John Hancock helped fund a fledgling Patriot newspaper published by a young radical named Isaiah Thomas.

Texas VC / @texasvc: But I'll end with this. When I was a kid I couldn't find any Star Trek news, and now I've got 5 regular sources. My industry has dozens of news sites covering my peers. Journalism is all around me, but just in different ways. 8/8

Darren Carroll / @darrendcarroll: Organized journalists across the US are fighting to save their newspapers. @DukeU could help that fight by returning donations from alum Heath Freeman, the Alden Global Capital exec who's earning double-digit profits from the destruction of local news. #SaveLocalNews @NewsGuild https://twitter.com/...
Gregory Korte / @gregorykorte: “Local newspapers produced more of the local reporting in the communities we studied than television, radio, and online-only outlets combined.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Nandini Jammi / @nandoodles: Yes, definitely. I still have faith in ad revenues though. People would revolt if they knew how adtech siphons away $$ from local news and towards disinformation. https://twitter.com/...
Victor Pickard / @vwpickard: .@Sulliview's great piece points to an analysis that's central to my book: there's no commercial option for local journalism. If we want it - and democracy - to survive, we must intervene via public policy and subsidy. https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Brent Colburn / @cbrentcolburn: The death of local journalism is as big a threat to our democracy as outside foreign influence—and we have to start thinking in new ways if we want to stop the bleeding. Thanks @Sulliview for the thoughtful take on this enourmous challenge. https://twitter.com/...
Damon K / @dada_drummer: So grim. My own two cents, a la Spotify income for a musician: arts coverage isn't extra, I think it kept local papers young and engaged w/the community. In Boston, once arts coverage disappeared it wasn't long before I stopped hearing anyone under a certain age mention the paper https://twitter.com/...
Rebecca Jennings / Vox:
A look at influencer gossip accounts, which occupy a new media landscape where the line between reporting and brand building is very thin — They just might be the future of media. — If you were following the almost definitely not legally binding wedding of YouTubers Jake Paul …

Rebecca Jennings / @rebexxxxa: TikTok Room, for instance, is run by a high school senior and a college freshman, has more than 300k followers, and is the most influential source of news on the platform. they want to turn it into a media empire!
Tim Rogers / Nieman Reports:
How independent Latin American journalists are working around repressive regimes, from exile journalism on Nicaragua to English-language outreach in El Salvador — Despite social turmoil, financial woes, and repressive regimes, Latin American reporters are keeping the journalism alive
Discussion:
Tin Royers / @nicadispatch: Here's the piece I wrote for @NiemanReports on freedom of the press in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Bolivia, and Chile. Un fuerte abrazo solidario to all the brave journalists who took the time to talk to me for this article. You're my heroes. Adelante! https://niemanreports.org/...
David Beard / @dabeard: His dad, journalist Pedro Joaquin Chamorro, was gunned down for opposing a dictatorship. That dictatorship was overthrown. Now Carlos Fernando Chamorro, also a journalist, is returning from exile, facing the wrath of another dictator. https://niemanreports.org/... @nicadispatch https://twitter.com/...

Hunter Walk:
Tech leaders should stop glib comments on media and acting like underdogs, and tech media should stop “Red Teaming” tech, overusing anonymity, and passing blame — Lots of mutual bad faith. Reporters I respect indulging themselves in screenshotting and quote dunking tech folks, performative for their tribe.

Discussion:
Balaji S. Srinivasan / @balajis: Incredible. Last week I called out a journalist who I thought was writing a piece that would be a disservice to public health. Unfortunately, my concerns proved well-founded. Recode's virus piece ignores WHO & CDC, gets the science wrong...and focuses on handshakes! Thread: 🧵 https://twitter.com/...
Taylor Hatmaker / @tayhatmaker: thoughtful post on trumpian language seeping into silicon valley + how tech types are convinced they're the underdog when they're really the incumbent https://twitter.com/...
@doveywan: Western outlet has the luxury to speak freely and write in-depth investigative piece of #COVID19 but sadly I rarely see many doing (Iike digging first hand info from Wuhan medical staff and patients on Chinese forums) Hope there can be less hysteria, less clickbait, less NIMBY https://twitter.com/...
@alex: tiny notes on this as the debate continues https://alexwrites.substack.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Kieran Snyder / @kieransnyder: Good read. Also made me wonder how this piece might be different if a journalist had written it instead. https://twitter.com/...
@hunterwalk: Two new longform riffs on media/tech 1. @TechCrunch's @alex Tech, media, and what journalism is for (https://alexwrites.substack.com/ ...) 2. @chr1sa The problem with the tech media is not that they don't understand tech. It's that they don't understand *business* (https://www.linkedin.com/...) https://twitter.com/...
Kara Swisher / @karaswisher: Ok @balajis, as my attempt to do an interview with @jack on twitter went, the ability to intelligently take on a complex subject with the respect it deserves is hard (though not impossible) here. Better offer: Come on Recode Decode podcast for an hour panel on coronavirus and SV https://twitter.com/...
Subhankar / @subhankar94: *SJP voice* As I sat on the C train reading tweets from the Thought Leaders of Silicon Valley, I wondered if they were angry at each other, or just angry at themselves? Did Kara really want to shake Balaji's hand? And after everything, would she “shake” the image B had painted? https://twitter.com/...
@hatr: This is a good blog. Most of it applies to cybersecurity reporting, too (h/t @gregotto) https://hunterwalk.com/...
Mathew Ingram / @mathewi: Good piece from Hunter. I don't want to pick a winner, I just want both teams to have a good time 😂 https://twitter.com/...
@jarroddicker: 2 industries in serious transition. Important to remain objective (which @hunterwalk does well here) when it comes to labeling journalism. Many are saying “premium” journalism is on the decline. That's inaccurate & generalizes ALL journalism as the same. Which it's not. /1 https://twitter.com/...
Anil Dash / @anildash: Very good analysis by Hunter of the totally broken interaction between tech & media. I'm probably one of the few who's helped start multiple companies & written for major media, and the intellectual dishonesty of some major tech execs + VCs is the most toxic part of the dynamic. https://twitter.com/...
Bryant Jefferson / MediaSquared: Mom, Tech and Media Are Fighting Again!
Jason Kint / @jason_kint: Rather than find myself ranting in the @balajis hack attempt to reinterpret and criticize tech coverage he and those close to AH didn't like, I'm just reupping this - which was good. https://twitter.com/...
Seth Fiegerman / @sfiegerman: This critique is very reasonable on both sides. I would only push back on the point about tech press leaning heavily on anonymous quotes. Could we limit it? Sure. And most reporters I know always try for on the record. But NDAs have become the norm in tech https://hunterwalk.com/...
@hunterwalk: @webdevMason I see a bunch of wealthy people I know decry they believe there's a valuable form of journalism not being practiced. My call to action for them was to fund it. The same section says to also pay for today's media, even if they find it imperfect.
Steven Sinofsky / @stevesi: What's Wrong With Tech Folks Who Attack The Tech Media. And What's Wrong With Tech Media Today. @hunterwalk // something that changed for me as I got older is working to differentiate attack, negative, poorly done, an oversight, etc from malicious. https://hunterwalk.com/...
Drew Olanoff / @yoda: @alex VCs and founders tried to treat journalists like friends, buddies and equals thinking it got them favorable coverage. When the coverage wasn't fluffy and tore into their reality distortion fields, the media became the devil.
Drew Olanoff / @yoda: @alex I think the entire problem is people keep calling it tech journalism. Like it's different than other journalism. It's journalism. I'm not sure what their definition of “tech journalism” is but I assume it's cheerleading fluff.
@alex: This is a good pt. Try to get an employee at any tech company on the record and they may get in legal trouble. https://twitter.com/...
Eliot Brown / @eliotwb: @alex Don't forget NDA culture Startups almost universally ask people to sign one Upon visiting their office for lunch
@alex: Pretty good. I'd add that anon quotes are not the reporters fault most of the time; trying to get ppl in tech on the record is super hard. I blame overprotective pr for this. Agreed that reporters should have more headline control.
Claire Lehmann / @clairlemon: Amazing thread from @balajis in which he fact-checks line by line a recent @Recode article designed to embarrass Silicon Valley for being overly cautious about #COVID_19 Take-away: lazy journalism is not just annoying, it's a threat to public health https://twitter.com/...
Tracy Chou / @triketora: these are good points and critiques of both sides of the tech industry vs tech press divide https://hunterwalk.com/... h/t @hunterwalk https://twitter.com/...
@jason: Tech leaders are asking the tech press to take a pause & ask themselves if they could do better covering tech less hysterically & negatively — which is very similar to what the tech press asked tech leaders to do: be better, act more honorably. Both parties can improve. https://twitter.com/...
DELIAN Asparouhov / @zebulgar: My favorite part of all of this is that Balaji has 15x the likes which means he likely has 50x the views A lot harder to be a bully when your usual targets for the last decade have built up bigger distribution than you https://twitter.com/...
Martin Sfp Bryant / @martinsfp: Finally had the time read the thread alongside the article itself, and for all the talk of ‘bad faith’ in the thread, there's a serious dose of bad faith in his interpretation of the article — or maybe poor reading comprehension. https://twitter.com/...
Katherine Boyle / @ktmboyle: Twitter has destroyed institutional media. Status is no longer conferred by where one works. This is not new— this is a 30-year trend, thanks to the Fairness Doctrine. This is the beginning of a new media pattern that is reaching every corridor of business, politics and society. https://twitter.com/...
Sarah Cone / @sarah_cone: @chr1sa @hunterwalk I had an early-stage draft deck given to an editor in confidence for feedback ("hey does this work for your profession?") and he leaked it to write a clickbait story causing half the Internet to pile on me. They pick on the weak too; they'll do whatever for clicks.
Chris Anderson / @chr1sa: @hunterwalk “A reporter I know told me that their job is only to Red Team vs tech” Having spent half my career in media, I can confirm that's all too common. Drives me crazy A lot of it is due to Watergate-era “fifth estate” self-importance of press as a necessary counterbalance to power
Chris Anderson / @chr1sa: @hunterwalk The problem with that applied everywhere is that every reporter thinks of themselves as a self-appointed cop, ferreting out malfeasance in the establishment. Focus on negatives and joy in undermining giants. Corrosive
@hunterwalk: @nick_farina @sarah_cone @chr1sa nah, the reporters in my feed are on top of that one ;-)
@nick_farina: @sarah_cone @chr1sa @hunterwalk OK, but what about the other side? It seems like people are picking up on the “flaws with journalism” part of Hunter's piece and skipping over the “flaws with tech attacking the press” part.
Madeleine McKendrick / @mgmckendrick: 1) I love this. It's too tough on anonymity though: “If you can't get people on the record, maybe it's not a story.” Absolutely not. The biggest & most important stories are also the ones that invite massive retaliation & require anonymity. (see: MeToo, Impeachment, etc) https://twitter.com/...
@hunterwalk: @MGMcKendrick thx. agreed - the focus here was treating anonymity as something scarce, and only to be given in proportion with the value of what's being reported. Feels like now it's become more of a norm, even for stories w very little broad public value. https://twitter.com/...
Madeleine McKendrick / @mgmckendrick: @hunterwalk Understood & agreed. As a leader, it just seemed to go in a direction that might lead others to M*GA-ish claims we see re: anonymous sourcing. Considering circumstances even beyond those mentioned, such as the number of employees constricted by NDAs, it can be more complicated.
Jason Kint / @jason_kint: I cringed at headline of @hunterwalk blog post but having now read carefully, it's entirely fair. Thx for taking it on. Important point: “So just as you think the media is ‘punching down’ when they critique us, they generally see it as ‘punching up’ and hold power accountable.” https://twitter.com/...
@davidu: Must read thread. ���� Far more dangerous then the manufactured story about Oracle / Ellison that also came out today (which was orchestrated by a reporter). There are real journalists doing real journalism, and they need our strongest protection, but this isn't it. https://twitter.com/...
Geoff Lewis / @justglew: Must read thread from @balajis . Simply; we have no choice but to *all* be citizen journalists now. https://twitter.com/...
Yaser Bishr / @yaserbi: I strongly suggest all young journalists to read this thread by @balajis. Fact-checking is not only about facts but it is also about context and intent https://twitter.com/...
Mike Cernovich / @cernovich: Act 1 - Media hits up a tech VC for comment on Coronavirus. Act 2 - Tech VC says, “nah you're just gonna do some clickbait piece.” Act 3 - Very Serious Reporters say, “nuh uh we don't do the clickbait.” Finale: https://twitter.com/...
Ryan Petty / @rpetty: A great example of why journalistic activism is a danger to society. That it was @recode. Anyone surprised? That @karaswisher doubles down. Par for the course. Original thread, h/t: @jonst0kes https://twitter.com/...
Antonio Garca Martnez / @antoniogm: This is going to start happening way more often, where media coverage is publicly refuted brashly and with zero thought to PR niceties (e.g. Fred Smith of FedEx responding to the NYT). https://twitter.com/...
Richard MacManus / @ricmac: Enjoyed this post a lot. The best thing about it? It was written on his blog, on his own domain, and wasn't a Twitter thread or a Medium post. Now that's a trend I'd like “Tech Folks” and “Tech Media” alike to adopt. https://twitter.com/...
Kara Swisher / @karaswisher: I will be responding later and in detail to this manipulative effort to cherry-pick and add a convenient series of ... (ellipses) in order to misconstrue parts of the actual article, which you should actually read and is in no way minimizing the threat. https://twitter.com/...
Felix Salmon / @felixsalmon: Tech Guy: I am deservedly wealthy because when I look at the world I can see things that other lesser mortals cannot discern Also Tech Guy: An honest journalist looking at the world will see exactly what I see and if she doesn't then she's just trolling for clicks
Mike Dudas / @mdudas: “The media's...reading your blog posts, tweets, podcast transcripts. If every individual, VC firm, startup is using these platforms to build their brand and puff their chests out, please spare me the indignation when reporters want to ask you for comment.” https://hunterwalk.com/...
Sar Haribhakti / @sarthakgh: An imp piece by @hunterwalk. A lot of BS on both sides for explaining away their own bad faith behaviors & holding the other side to a higher standard. No industry is too precious to get perpetual immunity to criticism. https://hunterwalk.com/...
Heidi N. Moore / @moorehn: A good read by @hunterwalk about the knock-down, drag-out fights in Tech Twitter as VCs and others resist making themselves and their businesses accountable: “You are not as much of an underdog as you think you are.” https://hunterwalk.com/...
@hunterwalk: @cwarzel agreed. also, there needs to be *some* aggressiveness to do the real reporting on the worst shit that deserves expose, to be called out. no one wants a press that pull punches when a punch should be thrown (or at least i hope no one wants that...)
Kevin Roose / @kevinroose: @hunterwalk good stuff, esp. the punching up/down confusion bit. i once had an exec at a $500+ billion techco complain to me that the NYT (market cap: slightly less than $500 billion) was punching down by criticizing them.
Chris Anderson / @chr1sa: @GlennF @hunterwalk Agreed, but much of that comes from poor technical literacy by most journalists. You're one of the few who really knows your stuff Interestingly the science press tends to be much better informed, perhaps because science moves slower and publication is so much a part of science
Glenn Fleishman / @glennf: @chr1sa @hunterwalk There's a flip side of all this, too, which is the remarkable lack of critical thinking regarding a lot of tech utopianism. Theranos, for instance, should never have passed a second of scrutiny from a credible press—not a Red Team one, but an informed one.
Stephanie / @isosteph: @hunterwalk i liked this a lot! but re: the anonymity section what are reporters supposed to do about the fact that basically every tech employee is under nda
Glenn Fleishman / @glennf: @chr1sa @hunterwalk I appreciate the compliment, but it felt as if Theranos got anointed b/c of pedigree and no critical thinking was engaged—no medical knowledge required, perhaps. But also, we have a younger, less-experienced press b/c of layoffs and poor wages.
@can: @isosteph @hunterwalk I think about that but one thing I agree is anonymity flattens the entire org. With an even 100ppl co, chances are someone has an axe to grind
@fredbenenson: As someone who work(s/ed) in tech and whose closest friends are almost all current or former journalists, this is extremely on point! https://twitter.com/...
Eric Newcomer / @ericnewcomer: This is reasonable https://twitter.com/...
Edmund Lee / @edmundlee: and the comments that the reporter acted in bad faith is incredibly rich ... how many times has Big Tech and its handlers issued non-responses via press release, or limited access to executives, or played word games? ...
Edmund Lee / @edmundlee: the danger isn't the press — imperfect but willing to own its mistakes — it's the idea that only tech people can credibly comment on the tech industry...
Edmund Lee / @edmundlee: ... read the story. It's neither alarmist nor glib, and it offers salient examples of how Silicon Valley — an industry notorious for its solipsism — is handling a new unknown (as is every other business around the world)...
Edmund Lee / @edmundlee: As a media reporter, I've done my fair bit examining the press and the business behind the press (along with my colleagues and my competitors), and we're as skeptical and at a remove as we are looking at anyone else. Would love to see tech build in the same detached gaze. (fin)
Edmund Lee / @edmundlee: Tech folks (not just one VC dude) are losing it over this balanced, sharply reported story from @shiringhaffary on the industry's reaction to the coronavirus https://www.vox.com/... ...
John F. Harris / Politico:
Bernie Sanders' reversal on releasing health records highlights how pervasive the Trump precedent is and the dilution of mainstream media's institutional power — Where are those medical records you promised to show us, NBC News' Chuck Todd asked last weekend on “Meet the Press.”
Discussion:
Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: This is bothsidesist blather: “Even politicians who stand against him on every issue, and who speak solemnly about the need to restore norms shattered during this presidency, are ready to follow trails he has blazed in taking flight from public accountability.” https://twitter.com/...
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: At one time, says John Harris of @politico, “It was unpleasant and politically expensive to be in the crosshairs of the New York Times, the Washington Post, or a major broadcast network like NBC.” Not true any longer. For Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump. https://www.politico.com/...
John F. Harris / @harrispolitico: Will re-up this week's column on the generation-long dilution of media power to set agenda and demand public accountability. https://t.co/...
