Genuine question. How many more times does #BigTech censorship have to take place against journalists before you start writing on your own websites and directing people to your #RSS feed instead of relying on your social media traffic? There's thousands of places that will host your own website for you, for a price. I list a few below! No, it's not free, but how many times does this have to happen to you? https://www.thehandbasket.co/p/kansas-reflector-meta-facebook-column-censored

And here, I list a bunch of places that will host your own website for you!

"He points out that his position is not a partisan one. It's 'not about Republicans and Democrats," he stressed, but "about authoritarians versus pro-democracy Americans.' "

The FCC pushed back the application window to Dec 6-13 to allow community groups more time to prepare applications for new, low-power, community radio stations.

When they first announced the opportunity -- a window that has not been open in a decade y'all -- the news was clearly huge, so now they are giving people six more weeks to prepare their applications.

As you know, KUZU shows one way LPFM can be a foundation to build valuable community information resources.

Please boost and share.

Microsoft's AI is boosting fake stories about sex changes for toddlers on the MSN service, blindly furthering the extreme right's project to eliminate trans people.

The issue with MSN's algorithmic aggregation after they fired their human team was first brought to their attention last December, when the service boosted fake stories about Bigfoot and Mermaids. #trans #journalism #AI
