Davey Alba / @daveyalba: NEW: A network of 1,300 websites aim to fill a news void left by vanishing local papers across the U.S. It is built on propaganda ordered up by conservative advocacy groups & Republican operators, according to a year-long investigation by me and @jacknicas https://www.nytimes.com/...
Jack Nicas / @jacknicas: NEW: A network of 1,300 websites targeting small towns and cities across the U.S. is built not on traditional journalism, but rather propaganda ordered up by Republican groups and P.R. firms. A nearly yearlong investigation by @daveyalba and me: https://www.nytimes.com/...
Sean Illing / @seanilling: The collapse of local news and the consequent nationalization of politics is arguably the least understood crisis in this country https://twitter.com/...
Steve Waldman / Poynter: The new crisis of local faux news and how we can fix it
Davey Alba / @daveyalba: The network also takes advantage of many under-employed and out-of-work journalists. The journalists we spoke to who write for the network said they overlooked their doubts because the pay was steady and journalism jobs were scarce. https://www.nytimes.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Jack Nicas / @jacknicas: Yesterday we told you about the nationwide pay-for-play network disguised as traditional local news outlets. Today, let's walk through one bizarre example of how this scheme works. https://twitter.com/...
Nick Confessore / @nickconfessore: You guys remember Monty Bennett, the wealthy hotel mogul and Trump supporter who got tons of Covid bailout money and then had to give it back? You'll Never Believe What Happened Next. https://twitter.com/...
Nils Gilman / @nils_gilman: Amazing reporting by @daveyalba & @jacknicas about how the collapse of local news reporting (thanks Google!) has created an opening for that space to be filled by a network of rightwing propaganda web sites that masquerade as news sites. https://twitter.com/...
Jason Kint / @jason_kint: It's worth noting Newsguard also recently dropped Breitbart by 20 points and reissued its red warning label. The site had earned a green label in 2019/2019 after fixing many of its problematic practices. That's all now lost. How did Facebook change its own view? https://twitter.com/...
John Battelle / @johnbattelle: Attention all brands dumping billions into Facebook and Google: Your media spending choices matter. https://twitter.com/...
Heather Chapman / The Rural Blog: Network of conservative websites masquerade as unbiased local news; see interactive map for local examples
Michael Hobbes / @rottenindenmark: There's no such thing as a “news desert,” only a news swamp. https://twitter.com/...
Matthew Chapman / @fawfulfan: This story is nuts. There's nothing new about partisan news sites, of course. Both sides do it. But a network of hundreds of sites dressed up as local news outlets that directly commission conservative PR on behalf of paying clients is something new and disturbing. https://twitter.com/...
Mark Maxwell / @markmaxwelltv: “While Mr. Timpone's sites generally do not post information that is outright false, the operation is rooted in deception, eschewing hallmarks of news reporting like fairness and transparency.” https://twitter.com/...

Ben Sandofsky / @sandofsky: Tired: State Run Media Wired: Billionaire Run Media https://twitter.com/...
Anne Helen Petersen / @annehelen: This is an incredibly important story. The Montana Daily Gazette doesn't seem to be part of this network but it certainly functions in the same way, spreading sensationalized far right propaganda with a name/aesthetic that convinces readers it's a legitimate local news site https://twitter.com/...
Terry Teachout / @terryteachout1: Fascinating—and troubling. https://twitter.com/...
Molly Jong-Fast / @mollyjongfast: This piece is amazing https://twitter.com/...
Nicole Perlroth / @nicoleperlroth: “The instructions were clear: Write an article calling out Sara Gideon, a Democrat running for a hotly contested U.S. Senate seat in Maine, as a hypocrite. Angela Underwood, a freelance reporter in upstate New York, took the $22 assignment.” It published in Maine Business Daily. https://twitter.com/...
@aaronworthing: In other words, with the “unbiased media” model dying because it was complete bullshit, we are returning to the prior model of journalism which involved the press being nakedly partisan and admitting it https://twitter.com/...
Vindu Goel / @vindugoel: Republicans are operating a vast network of more than 1,000 fake-news sites pretending to be legitimate local news outlets. https://twitter.com/...
Matthew Yglesias / @mattyglesias: Great piece. Also while this is pernicious it's a good idea strategically. Dems have raised a ton of money this years, but progressives don't invest much in media. https://twitter.com/...
Alison Berg / @alison__berg: I really, really like my job. I want to keep doing this job but I genuinely worry it won't exist in 20 years. https://twitter.com/...
Mathew Ingram / @mathewi: Maybe you thought all those local news “deserts” would just remain deserts, but when other journalistic lifeforms disappear, strange and desperate creatures often emerge to take their place https://twitter.com/...
Elizabeth Hernandez / @ehernandez: Supporting your local news is truly an act of democracy. https://twitter.com/...
Menaka Doshi / @menakadoshi: They look like bonafide news platforms. But they are not. Important story. https://twitter.com/...
Raju Narisetti / @raju: #newsdeserts across America are being filled by pink slime https://twitter.com/...
McKay Coppins / @mckaycoppins: As Local News Dies, a Pay-for-Play Network Rises in Its Place: “The network...is built not on traditional journalism but on propaganda ordered up by dozens of conservative think tanks, political operatives, corporate executives and [PR] professionals” https://www.nytimes.com/...
Max Kennerly / @maxkennerly: It can't be overstated how much conservative propaganda is out there. Fake “news” sites, phony “think tanks,” dubious 501(c)(3)s, the list goes on. And the primary distribution method is @Facebook, which promotes them while throttling progressive sites: https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
@bryanboy: This is extremely frightening but not surprising. That country is brainwashed. https://twitter.com/...
Susie / @banikarim: we are absolutely fucked. the only way to get rid of sites like this is for them to be deplatformed & so far relying on platforms to decide which news outlets are legitimate is going ... very badly. https://twitter.com/...
Daniel Dale / @ddale8: Important story about sites that seem like ordinary local news publications but run articles “directed by political groups and corporate P.R. firms to promote a Republican candidate or a company, or to smear their rivals.” https://www.nytimes.com/...
Louisa / @louisathelast: This is not new (I remember NPR reporting on it years ago), but it does seem to be ramping up. Not good https://twitter.com/...
David Sirota / @davidsirota: Basically, the media space is being rotted by increasingly grotesque & brazen corruption, and the only way to fix it is to have grassroots-funded, reader-supported news organizations. Unfortunately, building that is extremely difficult. But it is worth the effort. https://twitter.com/...
@slpng_giants: Lax oversight by Internet giants combined with social networks like @facebook prioritizing engagement over quality reporting have brought us here, where real news is being completely replaced by partisan sites doing the bidding of billionaires. Breitbart was just the start. https://twitter.com/...
Rob Walton / @therobwalton: It's almost like a large news organization, possibly based in New York, gave up on its regional chain of newspapers and let them get gobbled up by private equity ghouls who stripped them of assets and left them for dead. It's almost like that. https://twitter.com/...
Eric Boehlert / @ericboehlert: so much is depressing abt this piece. near the top? freelancers getting paid $22 for articles. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Jonathan Alter / @jonathanalter: This is a terrifying story. We need a massive non-profit investment in legit local journalism or kur democracy os done no matter what happens in the election. https://twitter.com/...
Dame / @damemagazine: An essential read. Media literacy is so critical right now. https://twitter.com/...
Dan Kennedy / Media Nation: The king of ‘pink slime’ journalism is back, this time boosting Republicans
Davey Alba / @daveyalba: The man behind the network is Brian Timpone, a Republican and a former journalist who has been obsessed with replacing the old print guard as a digital-news mogul. We traced at least $1.7M in public records to his web of companies, but there could be more https://www.nytimes.com/...
Patrick George / @bypatrickgeorge: Do you think it gets exhausting to never do anything in good faith? Like, ever? What's it like when everything you do is some experiment in electioneering and ratfucking? https://twitter.com/...
Sam Allard / Scene and Heard: “Cleveland Reporter,” “NE Ohio Times” Among 50+ Ohio News Sites Controlled by Republican Propaganda Empire
Kathleen McLaughlin / @kemc: Scary stuff. Political operatives know local newspapers are still among the most-trusted sources of information, even as they vanish. https://twitter.com/...
Alex Reimer / Table For One: Our ‘fake news’ crisis is only going to get worse
Nandini Jammi / @nandoodles: This is indeed, an end-to-end Republican operation. The ring of propaganda sites takes donations through @REVV, the GOP-backed payment processor Laura Loomer ran to after she was banned from @PayPal. https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Nick Confessore / @nickconfessore: Truly jaw-dropping work here, on the next iteration of black-box Astroturfing on the right—not just manufacturing the content but manufacturing the news outlets. https://twitter.com/...
Janet Adamy / @janetadamy: The Copper Courier in Arizona and the Decatur Times in Alabama describe themselves as startup news sites filling the local news void. In fact, they are both partisan efforts to shape the news ahead of the 2020 election. By @emilyglazer @keachhagey. https://www.wsj.com/...
Dennis Herring / @dcherring: ok, my jaw is dropped. https://twitter.com/...
Tommy Vietor / @tvietor08: The incessantly whining about liberal media bias is pretty ridiculous when you combine the reach of Fox News, right-wing publishers on Facebook, and these local conservative sites. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Katie Robertson / New York Times:
Sources: NY Post's article about Hunter Biden was written mostly by Bruce Golding, who did not allow his byline to be used amid doubts in the tabloid's newsroom — Some reporters withheld their bylines and questioned the credibility of an article that made the tabloid's front page on Wednesday.

@petersterne: @BGrueskin @nycsouthpaw The source's point is that it sucks to work for a publication that, in addition to generally publishing (real) local reporting, occasionally publishes outlandish right-wing propaganda. It's not that everything the Post publishes is propaganda.
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: New York Post source tells me that inside the outlet, “All this Hunter Biden shit is being done in its own bubble. It's happening on an island within an island.” Person calls situation “gross” but is happy others are applying scrutiny and “see the grift.” https://view.newsletters.cnn.com/ ...

@petersterne: @BGrueskin @nycsouthpaw Sure. I don't think anyone was incredulous. Everyone I talked to said they weren't surprised the Post published it. That doesn't mean they're happy about it.
Max Boot / @maxboot: The hesitation by Facebook and Twitter to promote this disinformation (which likely originated in Russia) looks better all the time. You know what looks worse? Republican caterwauling about “censorship.” Like I said in @PostOpinions: https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Bill Grueskin / @bgrueskin: @petersterne @nycsouthpaw But anyone knows that going in. It's a bargain that a reporter has to make, for whatever reason, and this incredulity is a bit much.

Eddie Zipperer / @eddiezipperer: They'll never allow it to be a foreign policy debate because Biden has not been right on a single foreign policy issue in 47 years and Trump is one of the best foreign policy Presidents ever. https://twitter.com/...
Steve Cortes / @cortessteve: Our campaign chief reprimands the highly-biased complicit crony Swamp cabal, otherwise known as the Debate Commission... https://twitter.com/...
John Harwood / @johnjharwood: hard to believe the campaign manager for a major party presidential nominee actually wrote this letter https://twitter.com/...
Chris Hayes / @chrislhayes: Shorter Stepien: PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T MAKE US TALK ABOUT COVID AGAIN https://twitter.com/...
Amy Siskind / @amy_siskind: Sounds like Trump is angling for an excuse to drop out of the 3rd debate. https://twitter.com/...
Jon Favreau / @jonfavs: Trump campaign demands that the President be protected from being asked questions about the pandemic that he mismanaged. https://twitter.com/...
Eriq Gardner / @eriqgardner: Let me guess: Hunter Biden's laptop Media bias Big Tech bias Foreign policy related to Hunter Biden Moderator bias Covid-19 response (Just kidding) https://twitter.com/...
Elizabeth Spiers / @espiers: tldr; petulant whining that it's unfair for debate moderators to ask any questions about covid or the economy or anything voters care about, generally. https://twitter.com/...
Michael M. Grynbaum / @grynbaum: BIDEN campaign on Trump's debate letter: “The campaigns & the Commission agreed months ago that the debate moderator would choose the topics...As usual, the president is more concerned with the rules of a debate than he is getting a nation in crisis the help it needs.”
Devin Duke / @sirdukedevin: Remember when Trump wanted to debate Biden for four hours on Joe Rogan's show? Now they're backing out of the second debate. https://twitter.com/...
Nicole Sganga / @nicolesganga: Trump campaign manager @BillStepien has sent a letter to the @debates commission demanding the third presidential debate remain focused on foreign policy. Stepien also protests rule changes, including “granting an unnamed person the ability to shut off a candidates microphone.” https://twitter.com/...
David Plouffe / @davidplouffe: A Presidential campaign manager's job is to win the campaign. This is not that. https://twitter.com/...

Joshua Benton / Nieman Lab: Is Facebook too big to know? The Markup has a plan (and a browser) to wrap its arms around it
@themarkup: Citizen Browser is a new project that seeks to audit the black box algorithms that determine what users see on their social media feeds. Read more on this exciting project in today's newsletter: https://www.getrevue.co/... (video via @knightcolumbia) https://twitter.com/...
Julia Angwin / Hello World: Auditing the Algorithms of Disinformation
Michael Veale / @mikarv: I think it's quite disingenuous for @themarkup to call their Citizen Browser Project a ‘unique way to collect data’ when @WhoTargetsMe uses the same principle and is much older. I know content ≠ ads, but credit where credit is due. You don't need to pretend to be #1. https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Jose Tapia / @pepetapia44: Finally announced, The Citizen Browser Project—an initiative designed to audit the algorithms that social media platforms use to distribute news and narratives to different communities. The Algorithms of Disinformation | Revue https://www.getrevue.co/...
Tony Romm / @tonyromm: oh my god i am so jealous of @themarkup and i hope many people sign up and install this browser because everyone will benefit from this journalism https://themarkup.org/...
Antonio Garca Martnez / @antoniogm: “Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster.” It's ironic that when a watchdog tries to monitor FB, they replicate its worst excesses. This is the data-leaky intermediation of every sketchy app on the former FB Platform. https://themarkup.org/...
Carole Cadwalladr / @carolecadwalla: A nationally representative panel of 1,200 people is to be paid to give researchers access to their Facebook & YouTube feeds. Ridiculous that researchers have to go to such lengths but great that @JuliaAngwin's @themarkup is doing it https://themarkup.org/...
Alexios / @mantzarlis: “A nationally representative panel of 1,200 people will be paid to install the custom web browser on their desktops, which allows them to share real-time data directly from their Facebook and YouTube accounts with The Markup.” https://themarkup.org/...
Roger Pharr / @rdpharr: That is super clever. I can't wait to see what @themarkup finds! https://themarkup.org/...
Rosalie Murphy / @rozmurph: “...a custom web browser designed by The Markup to audit the algorithms that social media platforms use to determine what information they serve their users, what news and narratives are amplified or suppressed” — can't wait to see this in action https://themarkup.org/...
Lisa Tozzi / @lisatozzi: A custom web browser designed to audit the algorithms social media platforms use to determine what information they serve their users, what news and narratives are amplified or suppressed, and which online communities those users are encouraged to join. https://themarkup.org/...
Per Axbom / @axbom: The Citizen Browser Project—an initiative designed to measure how disinformation travels across social media platforms over time. https://themarkup.org/...
Nabiha Syed / @nabihasyed: Many thanks to the Trusted Elections Fund for helping this get off the ground! https://twitter.com/...
@civic_signals: What political stories are being pushed to Black voters in swing states? What groups are recommended to young voters in Texas? Exciting new tool from @themarkup that audits the algorithms that decide what we see on our social media feeds. https://themarkup.org/...
Mark Little / @marklittlenews: So much lazy commentary about big tech these days. This is the kind of data-driven reporting we really need https://twitter.com/...
Craig Silverman / @craigsilverman: some cool shit right here https://themarkup.org/...
@blackamazon: It's user side testing based on directly collected data I LOVE IT . Instead of waiting on access and hoops from plat forms I love it https://twitter.com/...
@blakehounshell: Very interesting project. Would not be surprised, though, if we see leaked code from inside the social media companies someday https://twitter.com/...

@sacbeeguild:
In a letter, Sacramento Bee News Guild asks McClatchy's new CEO to reconsider a proposal to tie journalists' annual performance reviews and raises to page views — We have alarming news. The owner of The Sacramento Bee is trying to tie journalists' pay to the number of clicks their stories get. We're urging the company to reconsider. Here's our letter to McClatchy's new CEO about how this could hurt our community. #NoPayForClicks 1/9 https://twitter.com/...
Discussion:
Nick Wingfield / @nickwingfield: This reminds me of a story I wrote—24 years ago!—about how clicks might corrupt journalism https://www.cnet.com/... https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
@laura_nelson: This is so depressing. Paying local journalists based on how many people click on their stories is a recipe for more clickbait and less meaningful local reporting. https://twitter.com/...
Vera Bergengruen / @verambergen: This is objectively a very, very terrible idea - nowhere more so than in the shrinking (and essential) local journalism being done every day by McClatchy's newspapers with already overstretched resources. https://twitter.com/...
Catherine Sweeney / @cathjsweeney: This is how you end up with “goats in pajamas!” photo galleries and no school board coverage. Embarrassing. https://twitter.com/...
Noah Shachtman / @noahshachtman: We tried some version of this experiment at @WIRED for a while. It was bad for the company, and bad for the writers. https://twitter.com/...
Katrina Cameron / @katcameron91: Disappointed to hear about this happening at the Sac Bee. Clickable stories do not equal valuable community journalism. Support local newsrooms. https://twitter.com/...
David Folkenflik / @davidfolkenflik: McClatchy newly taken over by hedge fund Chatham Asset Management - seems to lay Sacramento journos' pay to how many clicks each draws Incentivizing click bait would literally be the model for better pay https://twitter.com/...
Ellen K. Pao / @ekp: The most frustrating thing about the internet is that people just don't seem to learn anything from its failures and keep making the same mistakes again and again https://twitter.com/...
Matthias Gafni / @mgafni: Not only does this hurt journalism, it just isn't a smart strategy if you're trying to drive $$$ subscriptions. Metrics are pretty clear that clicks aren't an indicator of what gets people to subscribe. https://twitter.com/...
Chantal Da Silva / @chantaladasilva: Undeniably true: “Pay-for-clicks encourages controversy and quantity over clarity and quality. Our job is to cut through the noise, not add to it.” https://twitter.com/...
Howard Altman / @haltman: As an editor who led the charge online back inna day, and is still keeping it going, I can say this is just spiraling down the toilet. McClatchy does great journalism. That's the way forward. If all you want are clicks, might as well just run porn. https://twitter.com/...
Will Oremus / @willoremus: “Writing for clicks” <— You hear this idea a lot from tech folks frustrated w/ the media, and while they're not wrong that business incentives can distort journalism, I think they underestimate the degree to which journalists themselves *loathe* the idea of writing for clicks. https://twitter.com/...
Brian Morrissey / @bmorrissey: Is this from a time capsule? Let me guess these business geniuses are very fond of auto play and a double rack of content ref ads. https://twitter.com/...
Don Winslow / @donwinslow: This is so dumb. This is such a dumb idea. I can't believe how dumb of an idea this is. Did I mention this is a dumb idea? This is like when that NFL player brought the gun the nightclub and accidentally shot himself in the leg. It's that dumb. https://twitter.com/...
@genepark: this is a dumb way to run a media organization and will surely lead to failure. it's not just concerning for ethical reasons. It won't work. https://twitter.com/...
John Harwood / @johnjharwood: very bad idea https://twitter.com/...
Danielle Turchiano / @danielletbd: I worked for a place that did this. It meant earning significantly less (not a living wage) for doing more work and often giving oxygen to things that shouldn't be stories. It also meant the writers were in competition with each other. It wa BS. The company ended up folding. https://twitter.com/...
Emily Gore-Censki / @emilygorcenski: One of the things you get good at when you've been a consultant/contractor for most of your career is detecting when a senior stakeholder has a profound lack of understanding of the product, the consumer, or both, and this is one of those times https://twitter.com/...

Mark Burnett, the TV producer behind Survivor, Trump's The Apprentice, and The Voice, is facing his own string of flops and a cultural disconnect, for now — Mark Burnett helped turn Donald Trump into a national figure with “The Apprentice.” But since 2016, his impact “has kind of gone bust.”

Farhad Manjoo / @fmanjoo: Here's @benyt on Mark Burnett's recent flops. I will say though that Survivor has become my family's quarantine binge show — we've watched at least 5 seasons in the last few months. There's an escapist simplicity to it. No real-world problems https://www.nytimes.com/...
Alex Leo / @alexmleo: Put this on my tombstone: “We believe this synergistic transaction will be very accretive” https://twitter.com/...
Angela Rynan Durrell / @rowaenthe: @mattdpearce @benyt Mark Burnett has been hoping he's going to skate underneath the radar, unfettered and unimpeded in his privilege and his very secure fortune. So far, he kinda has. And he shouldn't.
Felix Salmon / @felixsalmon: One way that you can tell @benyt is a digitally-native columnist: He doesn't feel the need to write to the same length each week. This week's column is literally half the length of the June 7 column, for instance. https://www.nytimes.com/... https://www.nytimes.com/...
