Ben Smith / New York Times:
Fox stipulated that its settlement for hyping rumors about Seth Rich be kept secret until Nov. 3, showing how Fox is entwined with Trump-camp disinfo efforts — Why did the network insist an agreement with the family of a murdered young man remain undisclosed until after the election?

Audrey Cooper / @audreyhasnews: If any other news outlet did this, it would be all over Fox News for weeks. Politicians would be yapping about it whenever they had a chance to discredit media that holds them to account. Yet Fox News maxes up a conspiracy theory and gets to hide it until after the election. https://twitter.com/...
John Davidson / @johnnyddavidson: The UK government is insane to let Murdoch set up a Fox News-style network up in the UK https://twitter.com/...
Casey Newton / @caseynewton: “That's the genius of the Murdochs' management of the place: They collect the cash while evading responsibility and letting their hosts work primarily for Mr. Trump.” Fox News is a menace. Great @benyt column https://www.nytimes.com/...
Jonathan Martin / @jmartnyt: One of the many smart things @benyt did when we worked at Politico was to cover Murdoch + Ailes as political actors. They had on-air talent attack us for it, barred colleagues from their air But he was right then and is right today https://www.nytimes.com/...

James Ball / @jamesrbuk: An excellent question posed in this piece and not quite answered: why did Fox News require its multi-million dollar settlement to Seth Rich's parents to be kept secret until after Election Day 2020? https://twitter.com/...
Matt / @mattxs: Fox agreed to Pay for Telling Lies. But It Refused to Make It Public Until After the Election. Clickbait headlines like the one below bury the story & help Fox get away with it. https://twitter.com/...
Jake Tapper / @jaketapper: “There's only one multibillion-dollar media corporation that deliberately and aggressively propagated these untruths.

Jon Favreau / @jonfavs: Great piece. There's been way too little focus on Fox News as the source of the radicalization that's put the country in danger. The network is a cancer. https://twitter.com/...
Ben Rhodes / @brhodes: There's nothing new about Fox acting like this. There's nothing new about the disinfo that led to 1/6. There's nothing new about Trump's racism and mendacity.

David Begnaud / @davidbegnaud: “Fox paid so much that the network didn't have to apologize for the May 2017 story on https://foxnews.com/.

Jake Tapper / @jaketapper: “Fox's decision to settle with the Rich family came just before its marquee hosts, Lou Dobbs and Sean Hannity, were set to be questioned under oath in the case, a potentially embarrassing moment.... https://www.nytimes.com/...
Tami Burages / @tburages: The family of Seth Rich wasn't allowed to disclose the settlement until after the November 3 election. Which proves once again that Fox News is nothing more than the propaganda arm of the Republican Party. https://twitter.com/...
@slpng_giants: This piece is so incredibly damning. How any advertiser can continue to do business with a TV network that knowingly spread lies about a young man who was murdered, further ruining his families life, is just incomprehensible. This should be wholly disqualifying for any business https://twitter.com/...
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: “Why did Fox care about keeping the Rich settlement secret for the final month of the Trump re-election campaign? Why was it important to the company, which calls itself a news organization, that one of the biggest lies of the Trump era remain unresolved for that period?” https://twitter.com/...

Stephen Fowler / @stphnfwlr: Still not mentioned: his fiancée being the EP, Andy Mills and the long-standing allegations of harassment+hosting The Daily after the errors came to light, etc. Also comes only after several high-profile stations dropped the show from its lineup, notably. https://twitter.com/...
Nick Andersen / @nicktheandersen: nothing in here about whether or not this was an ‘accountability interview,’ or the idea that his fiancé being the EP matters (it does) https://twitter.com/...

A look at the next decade in live sports streaming: fans likely to subscribe to 3-4 services, switching them out in off-seasons rather than buy a single bundle — Last week, we wrote about electronic sports media heading into its “fourth quarter”—a new streaming epoch driven by developments in tech and entertainment.
Discussion:
Josh Walker / @joshuawalker_: History does repeat itself and markets are slow to change. Sports media has some entrenched dynamics that make even the *big* move to #OTT platforms look familiar. Good article @JKosner @HowieLongShort The mobile carriers are in the fight for sure. https://www.sportico.com/...
Jeremy M. Evans / @jeremymevansesq: “Rather than buy a single pay TV bundle, future fans will likely subscribe to three or four streaming services that include sports, switching some of them out during off-seasons.” #entertainment #media #sports #content #streaming #film #tv https://www.sportico.com/...

Eric Boodman / STAT:
Sharon Begley, an award winning science journalist who worked at Newsweek, WSJ, and STAT over 43 years, died at 64 due to cancer complications — Trying to write a lede about the loss of Sharon Begley feels a little like being asked to sing a song at Aretha Franklin's grave. Sharon would have hated that sentence.

Bethany Brookshire / @beebrookshire: I saw someone call this obituary for @sxbegle “humbling.” And it is. It absolutely is. by @EricBoodman “She gossiped, she was foul-mouthed, she would snark. This is journalistic sainthood, not normal sainthood,” - @jetjocko We lost a titan last week. https://www.statnews.com/...
Jeff Jacoby / @jeff_jacoby: What a shock to learn of Sharon's death. We were almost always the first to arrive early each morning at the shared @STATNews/@GlobeOpinion workspace.

David Beard / @dabeard: “5 days before her death, she filed a piece to her editor. It was about non-smokers who get lung cancer—a story ... she was living as she wrote it, neuropathy from the chemo making it hard for her to hold a pen. She didn't mention that.” #RIP, friend. https://www.statnews.com/...
Jason Ukman / @jasonukman: Sharon Begley was a treasure for everyone @statnews and for so many, many others over the course of her 43-year career. @EricBoodman with a marvelous obituary that celebrates her life and career. https://www.statnews.com/...
Caroline Chen / @carolineylchen: Oh my heart. So sad to hear that Sharon Begley has passed away. I have looked up to her so much for so long, and @EricBoodman's tribute brought me to tears. @sxbegle will be missed tremendously. https://statnews.com/...
Eric Weinstein / @ericrweinstein: One of many journalists to wake up to the idea that the US STEM shortage is an employer hoax...but she was open & honest that she had been played. And she may have been first in MSM to call Bullshit. She was very kind to me for opening her eyes. I admire her integrity greatly. https://twitter.com/...

Christina Farr / @chrissyfarr: This is so tragic. What an amazing legacy and body of work she left behind. https://www.statnews.com/...

Stat / @statnews: From the glory days of print magazines to 2020's Twitter-crazed news cycles, Sharon Begley won more awards and accolades than could fit in an obituary. The accomplishments she was prouder of were making complex ideas accessible to anyone — and beautiful. https://www.statnews.com/...

Journalists' desire for moral clarity in the face of Trump's dishonesty is understandable, but abandoning “bothsidesism” risks further polarizing people — Facing a dishonest president, journalists sought “moral clarity.” But the press must now resurrect a much-maligned principle: hearing both sides.

Dan Froomkin / @froomkin: Trolling nonsense from @lionelbarber, who abjures bothsideism in favor of a straw man argument. His is that it's a choice between bothsideism and “abandon[ing] all pretense of nuanced reporting in favor of untrammeled partisanship.” Feh. https://twitter.com/...
Mathew Ingram / @mathewi: Lionel Barber has a long and distinguished career as a journalist and is also wrong https://twitter.com/...
Sulome / @sulomeanderson: Thread. Journalism is not a scale to be artificially balanced. Both sides should be presented, but when one side is a menace to democracy and one side is flawed but not trying to illegally seize power and encourage terrorism, that should be made clear. https://twitter.com/...
Elizabeth Spiers / @espiers: The idea that there are two sides to every argument is not controversial. The problem is treating both sides as equally valid, which no journalist should ever do when that's not the truth. No one needs to “hear out” the flat earthers. https://twitter.com/...
