@PizzaMan Journalism: I like severe consequences for lying, though a baseline for ‘truth’ would be difficult to determine collectively. A not for profit media seems more trustworthy than profit models, but even today, people do not trust state run media unless it fits their biases. Sorry for responding piecemeal to all your points. Getting dishes done and putting kids to bed while trying to have a beer is very distracting. Also sorry for formatting. Still learning mastodon.

Non profit != state run.

Non profit is simply a tax filing method in which your financial records are public, and any money that is made doesn't go to shareholders. It goes to maintaining the organization, no more.

No worries, all good.

Also sorry for formatting. Still learning mastodon.

Again no worries. And I'm actually not on mastodon, I'm on lemmy.world. But it is cool how the two services work together.
