New York Times literally recreating the textbook image for journalistic manipulation. Everyone at UCLA could see that the Zionist mob was attacking these students from outside the student encampment.
But in @nytimes blurb below this photo, they report that LA police were called to respond to “multiple acts of violence within the encampment” — intentionally vague wording that obscures who the aggressor really was.

New doubts are emerging about the New York Times’s coverage of sexual violence in the October 7 attack. The paper must explain why it broke its own rules by hiring a clearly biased writer who endorsed racist and violent rhetoric toward Palestinians. #FreePalestine #NewYorkTimes #CeasFireNOW

Yes, you can knit during meetings. Turns out you focus better than if you started goofing off on your computer.

Has Online Advertising Gotten Too Creepy?
“Tech firms track nearly every click from website to website, develop detailed profiles of your interests and desires and make that data available to advertisers. That’s why you get those creepy ads in your Instagram feed or on websites that seem to know what you were just talking about.”
— Julia Angwin
Julia Angwin has written an interesting essay in the New York Times titled, “If It’s Advertised to You Online, You Probably Shouldn’t Buy It. Here’s Why.” She explains how terrible and pervasive online advertising is and makes the point that if a product shows up in an online ad, it’s probably terrible quality: “The targeted ads … were pitching more expensive products from lower-quality vendors than identical products that showed up in a simple web search.” Do you have experience with any of this? What do you think about online advertising? What do you think you can do about it? What do you think governments should be doing about it? Can you imagine a different version of the world that takes a different approach to online advertising? Make your case for what should be done about online advertising or explain your thinking on this topic.
Narrative alternative: tell an imaginary story where someone is getting online advertisements that are just a little too creepy.
