Even by Trump's standards, his recent attacks on the press are increasingly unhinged — threatening journalists with jail time and outlets with investigations for reporting on his disastrous war in Iran. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain and subscribe: freedom.press/newsletters
It’s up to news networks to stand up to the bullshit threats from the FCC and its commissioner. Bring a lawsuit, it's an easy win. “The giant corporations should make it their business to defend the First Amendment, or stay the heck out of the news business altogether.”
Watch David Borenstein, who just won an Oscar for his documentary “Mr. Nobody Against Putin,” call out the dangers of the pending Paramount-WBD merger, and what it means for press freedom.
“It’s not the role of the FCC or any other government agency to police any kind of speech,” FPF’s @adamrose.bsky.social tells the BBC News on Trump’s latest spat with Jimmy Kimmel, warning that government interference in late-night comedy and news threatens free speech and a free press.
“Our relationship with the working media … I don't think is as good anywhere in the country,” claimed LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell. But journalists covering LA protests tell a different story. Watch FPF’s @adamrose.bsky.social push back, calling out repeated mistreatment of the press.
Israel says it will sue @nytimes.com over Nicholas Kristof's reporting on the horrible torture of Palestinian prisoners. It's an absurd attack on press freedom meant to further shield any accountability. Watch us count the ways this lawsuit threat is both frivolous and outrageous.

The House passed Section 702, allowing warrantless spying on Americans. But its fate remains uncertain as many senators from both sides of the aisle oppose it. Watch FPF’s @trevortimm.bsky.social to see who backed it — and how to pressure the Senate to reject it. freedom.press/fisa
Undeterred by soldiers, riot police & politicians, Amy Goodman of @DemocracyNow.org reports the truth others won't touch. “Steal This Story, Please!” is the film this moment demands. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain and then follow the link to get your tickets: stealthisstory.org
Remember when the Trump administration pressured app stores to remove the ICEBlock app? It was a classic example of Trump’s favorite censorship move — jawboning. But a recent court case shows how media organizations can fight back. Watch FPF’s @trevortimm.bsky.social to find out more.
PM Luxon so magnimanious with his time across all media and Tik Tok he is just too busy to talk to Tova O'Brien, Jack Tame or Moana Maniapoto. Erica Sanford and Chris Bishop totally convinced.

It's a fridge with a bottle of champagne in someone's kitchen until the camera zooms out. I often see similar things in Kharkiv: a ceiling lamp hanging by a wire in a dark, shattered room; a kitchen cabinet still hanging on the wall when the rest of the room is gone;

Nice sequence for Victor Wembanyama. OKC has wanted to put him in action more, fights over the inverted P&R for Chet. Switches everything and gets a block. Attacks in transition before OKC can fully load up
Most small-business cyber insurance losses never make headlines. Big brands make the news. Quiet SMB breaches often don’t. In this clip from our most recent podcast, Dustin Carlson, CPCU from SRA 831(b) Admin, explains why that missing data matters.
