Today, we're going over your questions. You guys had some follow-ups about my stalker, Timothy C., and I'll be giving you a few more details on that situation. We're also unpacking the RFK Jr. sex scandal—what's real, what's spin, and what it all means. Plus, the government's leaked text messages have been making waves, and I'll be breaking down what they reveal and why you should (and shouldn't) care.—https://policecoffee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACG7qmI1dmMkruwgp8vA8w0oECKla&gclid=Cj0KCQjwtJ6_BhDWARIsAGanmKfdkRQ1M1sighZQ-PGpEpsCjrZ8fCigidnvH55bfBUNMa56-yoy_A8aAv34EALw_wcB—https://open.spotify.com/episode/7CcmZWvQEaLTQAQRAFy2BQ?si=FgeO4b9QSi-5eB2cqX2XHw
Last summer, OTM host Micah Loewenger reported a piece about the rise of worker-owned newsrooms: Hell Gate, a local New York publication, and Defector, a national outlet focused on sports and culture. Inspired by Defector and Hell Gate, more worked-owned outlets have come on the scene — including 404 Media, known for its mix of fun internet coverage and hard-nosed investigations. In this week's midweek podcast, Micah speaks to 404 co-founder Samantha Cole about the challenges they have faced since they started their own outlet. Plus, what their success can teach us about the future of news. On the Media is supported by listeners like you. Support OTM by donating today (https://pledge.wnyc.org/support/otm).

A short voice note on Online Journalism
Disinformation is good business. Spreading lies and outrage tends to be profitable, thanks to programmatic advertising, which cares only about traffic, not truth, and funding by state actors like Russia, which pour money into narratives that undermine democracies. Supporting truth is a tougher commercial prospect, but today's guest is giving it a credible run. Gordon Crovitz is the co-founder, with Steven Brill, of NewsGuard - a five-year-old for-profit enterprise that rates news sites for editorial integrity helping news consumers and advertisers avoid sites that spread toxic disinformation. Crovitz comes to NewsGuard after a distinguished career as a journalist and media entrepreneur. He was publisher of the Wall Street Journal, as well as an award-winning columnist for that paper.Before NewsGuard, he founded or cofounded Factiva and Online Journalism—so he's no stranger to media startups. Gordon and Eric discuss NewsGuard's business model, his decision to take up the cause of countering disinformation, the role of advertising in funding lies and the explosion of artificial intelligence in the information ecosystem and what seekers of truth can do about it.Topics00:00Introduction and Background00:23The Need for Trustworthy Journalism01:12The Problem of Identifying News Sources02:10The Role of Advertising in Misinformation03:40NewsGuard as a For-Profit Model04:39NewsGuard's Data and Reports06:34Ads Supporting Misinformation on Social Media08:23News Reliability Ratings and Misinformation Fingerprints09:33Examples of News Ratings12:15The Importance of Misinformation Fingerprints16:55Trust in Media and Political Bias20:29Challenges in Steering Ads to Reliable Sources24:57The State of Professional Journalism29:56Losing the Battle Against Misinformation31:39The Need for Regulation and Disclosure35:50Approaching Social Media Regulation38:59Gordon Crovitz's News Consumption Habits44:24ConclusionThis episode was produced by Tom Platts

What were our first weeks of summer break like? Lauren has entered her Kristyna-Era, meaning she's been traveling non-stop. Spent a week being a tourist in Madrid, then went to London for a Harry Styles concert (as you do), and then spend a couple of days exploring Lisbon before finally going back home to Switzerland. Kristyna went back home and dove right into her internship, which has been quite the adventure. No sleep, very last minute scheduling, etc. – it contains everything she loves in life. Besides that though, she's been really enjoying it and learning a lot. This episode focuses on our traditional semester recap: we take a look back at our classes from the fourth semester of Journalism. What were our initial impressions and expectations and how did we end up experiencing these classes? We talk about Online Journalism, Design Thinking, Televisión Informativa, etc. It was a rollercoaster of a semester for sure! And finally, it's time for our book club: we've been pretty busy, so, we haven't been reading or watching much. Kristyna did read two books about different end-of-world scenarios, and Lauren watched an Amazon Prime Documentary called 'Happy Shiny People'. Lauren goes on a passionate rant about Noah Kahan's new extended album 'Stick Season (We'll All Be Here Forever)' and Kristyna talks about her 'Prague Rocks' Festival experiencing, where she got to see Maroon 5 and (some of) James Bay. We hope you're having a nice summer too! And we hope you enjoy this episode.

Jim Hoft was passing through London in July and I was able to spend some time with him and record a short interview. What Jim has done with The Gateway Pundit is an example to us all, starting in 2004 as a blog, it has now grown into one of the largest conservative news websites in America. Despite co-ordinated attempts by big tech to de-platform TGP and cut off advertising and revenue streams, they continue to grow and flourish and they continue to "speak truth" and "expose the wickedness of the left". Jim shares some stories from that 18-year journey, including TGP's time as accredited press in the Trump White House. Enjoy this interview, we think you will be inspired at just what is possible. Jim Hoft is the founder and editor of The Gateway Pundit, one of the top conservative news outlets in America. Jim was awarded the Reed Irvine Accuracy in Media Award in 2013 and is the proud recipient of the Breitbart Award for Excellence in Online Journalism from the Americans for Prosperity Foundation in May 2016. The Gateway Pundit was originally founded in 2004 as TheGatewayPundit/blogspot.com by Jim Hoft who is the Editor of TGP. At the time the site primary wrote brief introductions and linked to other content producers serving as a hub for important current events in the political and media sphere. The site was established for readers tired of limited options and a politicized establishment media. The first readers included Joe, Jim's twin brother, Midwest Engineer and Jim's mother….and it grew from there. Located in America's Heartland, TGP focuses on topics Heartland Americans care about. Since its founding, TGP's has grown as many Americans turn to digital news sources and as many Americans continue to lose trust in the purportedly unbiased nature of older newspapers and networks, TGP is addressing this gap as a trusted news source for the stories and views that are largely untold or ignored by traditional news outlets. Editorially, The Gateway Pundit espouses politically conservative world view that support conservative positions on most issues, including abortion, national defense, small government, second amendment rights, tax policy, individual freedom and Constitutional values.

Jim Hoft and Courtenay Turner discuss the importance of truth, transparency, free speech, press, and journalistic integrity. In this episode, we cover a range of topics facing America today and the necessity of free speech to combat some of the largest threats. “The most feared weapon in the world is not the “Bomb” – it is the TRUTH! It is the bell that cannot be unrung. This is why the controllers and their media minions first attack all truth with lies, then move to silence all who oppose them. They know their falsehoods cannot stand against truth. They know once they are exposed for the frauds they are they cannot easily regain the trust they gambled. This is why they are determined to shut down all dissidence. This is why our freedom of speech is prominently included in the FIRST amendment!” ~Andy at the liberty coalition.

About Online Journalism In this episode, listen to us talk about why we think clickbait is ruining what honest journalism is trying to deliver. What is it about clickbait that we always end up falling for the bait despite having been tricked into it countless times before? Is this what online journalism was always supposed to be? And why are we running the risk of manufacturing our own Arnab Goswamis? And where is all this leading to next? Hate speech? Hate crimes? Frustrating.

Hello and welcome to the Meaningful Business podcast. I’m Peter Stojanovic, Deputy Editor at HotTopics and your host.Together we are going to find out how business leaders champion purpose, people and planet alongside profit - and in the process how to define and lead a meaningful business.Our first guest, who you’ve just heard, is Stephen Brill, co-CEO of NewsGuard, a company that is synthesising technology and the expertise of industry-leading journalists to create an online tool that can fight fake news, disinformation and poor or lazy reportage. High quality journalism is a strong indicator of a highly functioning democracy, which in turn provides a stable foundation for good business. For Stephen and his New York City-based team, therefore, this is a cause worth fighting for.I caught up with Steven whilst he was at NewsGuard HQ in New York City, fresh from a round of hype regarding NewsGuard’s recent red-flagging of the Daily Mail, a story broken by the Guardian and gleefully shared across the internet. It’s a fun story, but will NewsGuard’s badges have the impact on online journalism they desire

The BRAND New You Show - A Personal Branding and Digital Branding podcast
John Sparks | Twitter | Social Media Today I welcome to the show John Sparks from IamJohnSparks.com. John is Top 100 Social Media Power Influencer and one of the Top 50 Most Valuable Social Media Influencer for 2015. He is Social Media Keynote Speaker, Entrepreneur, Coach & Trainer. John teaches Online Journalism at The University of North Texas where he is Adjunct Professor. John is the author of the Best-selling book - “365 Ideas To Go From Good To Great On TWITTER!” GETTING STARTED WITH TWITTER When getting started with John coaches his clients to pay attention to the following “Big 5” of Twitter branding. 1 - Name: Just like it sounds the name is your name or your company's name. If you use your name make sure to use both your first and last name. 2 - Twitter Handle - This is your @ handle. When someone mentions you and uses your handle on Twitter it shows up in your notifications. And yes, WingDings are acceptable to use in your handle. 3 - Bio: You can use 160 characters in your bio. John recommends as a starting point using your headline on LinkedIn. Other suggestions are making sure to include keywords, think about how would you describe yourself, and finally consider how do you want to be found by others. 4 - Bio Picture John suggests the picture you use really depends on your purpose for using Twitter but he does advocate aligning your image across all your social media platforms. He even advocates using the same picture on your business cards. Another tip is to rename your images using your first and last name before uploading them to Twitter. Do not use the default name your camera assigns to your pictures such as DCS789543. 5 - Header Image The header image is not your bio picture rather it's the large image at the top of your page. You can use this image to communicate the types of tweets follower can expect to see or to advertise your book or other body of work. WHAT ARE THE KEY ELEMENTS OF A GOOD TWEET Once you've gotten your account set up you'll want to start tweeting. You only get 140 characters in a tweet. This includes any hashtags (#) as well as the twitter handle of the person you may include in your tweet. In order to accommodate for re-tweets and mentions of other people John recommends keeping your tweets to 120 characters or less. John challenges that less is more so we need to be bold and be brief with our tweets. We need to include a Call to action in our tweets. John suggests using “Please Retweet” as the call to action for the tweet. WRAP The best way to get in touch with John or pick up a copy of his book are listed below.
