The Trump regime just escalated media bias to a new level. Here's what happened, and how to protect yourself from the forthcoming disinformation campaigns
I subscribed to Ground News months before the election and even bought a gift subscription for my MAGA sister. While I have found it a very useful tool for reviewing how different media sources report the same story, it does not appear to have had any positive influence on my sister. Sadly, those in his cult seem to actively seek out stories that confirm their biases.
I agree I’m disappointed in legacy media. Which though trying too hard to be neutral at least gave us basic information as to what the administration was saying. And ground news is one solution. But what about subscribing to a wire service like Reuters or AP?
I just subscribed. I will check it out and let you know what I think of it after some time. The corporate media does not deserve one more nickel from me.
We may not all be Tech Bros...but, We Americans are definitely NOT Sheep in their Personal Pastures either...which is what they are trying to turn Americans into. Musk is their wrecking ball, "We the people", must be Americas "David", stand together defeat the attacking giant. Now, our Veterans money and benefits being withheld⁉️🤨 Our Veterans/Military men and women need us to defend and fight for them as well, as they are and have fought for us.🎯💯‼️
Demand Impeachment, shut down the treasonous actions against the American people. We need qualified Leadership not Complicit Domestic Elected Republican Political Terrorist standing with the American and ( South African) Billionaire/s to create their personal:
"Handmaid's Tale" so they, without penalty can pull females of all ages, by the (You know the rest) because they think they are the entitled stars and our lives and livelihoods are now their New Toys to play with or discard at will.🎯
The New Republic. I don’t watch TV. I personally think it’s a brainwashing machine. Salon and so many others need funding because they are independent sources of information . You will learn things that won’t find anywhere else.
I like this, Qasim. I've been thinking a lot lately about how at least part of the way to fight ascendant oligarchy is with how we as consumers allocate money and attention. Money talks in America, after all. If you don't like Musk's bureaucratic shenanigans, delete your Twitter and forgo that Tesla. If you don't like that Bezos purchased the Post, get rid of your Prime account. So on and so forth. Consumers alone can't do it, but if enough of us change our spending and media consumption behaviors, it'll start to signal market opportunities to competitors and may give billionaires enough pause to give the rest of us more room to maneuver.
Agreed - we just need to continue to be consistent in sharing that info. Grateful to you and others like you for your support in helping me share this content!

I am planning to subscribe, but what do you think of AllSides? Is it accurate in reporting bias?
Excellent article and suggestion, subscribed. Thank you!
Important one for substackers
How many Goebbels ways, let me count them

I also use an app called Boring News that uses AI to “remove the drama from news articles” (it’s the only good use of AI)
Grounded News relies on AI, which is extremely faulty.
People can use their critical thinking skills and READ articles from AP, The Guardian, and Al-Jazeera. Actual journalism.
I already do that too.

Thank you, and agreed. Corporate media knows its failed us in capitulating to Trump, so its especially wild watching Trump also turn on them.
It is. Some would call that poetic justice.
I subscribed too
Fantastic.
Thank you Qasim for pouring in strategic knowledge as our ammunition to help us know "how" to fight back. Again, Thank you 🎯⚘️
Absolutely. It's one thing to identify a problem, but we need solutions as well. That's what I'm committed to ensuring I try to provide.

Rep Al Greene announced impeachment articles yesterday. I doubt it'll go anywhere, but I'm glad someone is standing up.

The New Republic and ProPublic are two excellent sources.
