Sharyn Alfonsi is out at @60minutes.bsky.social for standing up for editorial integrity. That's what press freedom looks like under the Ellisons — and that’s why we need to stop them from buying CNN and running the same playbook. @jimacosta.bsky.social and @karaswisher.bsky.social break it down.

“I am obviously, as a person, as a journalist with a record, concerned.” Watch CNN legend @camanpour.bsky.social raise concerns about Trump donor David Ellison’s takeover of the news network, citing the ongoing ‘ideological realignment’ at CBS, at @sirharrysummit.bsky.social on Wednesday.
It turns out, when news outlets actually challenge the Trump administration in court, they win. After @nytimes.com sued the Pentagon over its ridiculous loyalty pledge, a federal judge struck down the restrictions as violating the First Amendment. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain.
Trump, once a vocal critic of FISA Section 702, is now pushing to reauthorize it. Section 702 allows the government to spy on Americans' communications without a warrant — and it must be reformed. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain and find out how you can help: freedom.press/reform-section-702
Congress is voting to renew FISA Section 702 — the dangerous surveillance law that lets the NSA and FBI search Americans’ calls and texts without a warrant. Watch @trevortimm.bsky.social explain, and TELL THEM: No spying on Americans without a warrant. Period. freedom.press/reform-section-702
“The First Amendment’s guarantee of a free press means nothing if private concentrations of power can achieve the same suppressive effect as government censorship.” Journalist @katiephang.bsky.social testifies about how the Paramount-WMD merger poses a grave risk to press freedom.

Trump's DOJ wants to scrap the Watergate-era law making presidential records public — effectively claiming the presidency owns the American story. We cannot let that happen. Watch @laurenleharper.bsky.social explain this bipartisan emergency, and find out how you can help: freedom.press/save-pra
