What I Object To Is Tricking The Reader And Blurring The Lines So That Unsuspecting Readers, Thinking That They Are Getting Something That Is Assigned And Edited By The Editorial Side, Are Getting Something Quite Different. They Are Getting An Advertisement.

I Would Like To See Russia Not Invade Ukraine Or Put Pressure On And Threaten Baltic States. But We Live In The Real And Existing World.

I Got In Journalism For Any Number Of Reasons, Not Least Because It's So Much Fun. Journalism Should Be In The Business Of Putting Pressure On Power, Finding Out The Truth, Of Shining A Light On Injustice, Of, When Appropriate, Being Amusing And Entertaining - It's A Complicated And Varied Beast, Journalism.

Instagram - It's Fun, But Facebook, No, Just Here And There. I Use Instagram As A Kick, Like When Somebody Tells Me To Check Out So-and-so's Instagram Account To Check Out Their French Toast Or A Trip To Tanzania. But I Don't Have An Account.

We Begin To Inhabit Oppositional And Rarely Intersecting Mental Universes Having To Do With Ideology And Fact And Non-fact And News And Non-news.
