¡Feliz #DíaDelLibro!

Aprovechamos para recomendar esta novedad #editorial: una obra que analiza y contextualiza los cambios que han experimentado los ecosistemas de la #comunicación en la era de la sobreabundancia informativa y la #posverdad.

Es el principal resultado del proyecto autonómico que desarrollamos desde #MediaFlows con financiación de la Conselleria de Innovación, Universidades, Ciencia y Sociedad Digital (2022-2024).

Hoy es el #diadellibro .

Y el día del #derechodeautor. Ambos.

#cedro y otras empresas, públicas y privadas, confunden el derecho de autor con propiedad intelectual, mezclan autoría y negocio, porque es cierto que tienen una parte que se solapa, pero solo se refieren a una parte de esos derechos. La que les interesa como negocio.

a la vez, sin embargo, dicen defender “el acceso a la #cultura escrita como base de la democracia u el #pensamientocrítico”. Eso es cinismo porque

Siguen sin querer NI ASOMARSE al fondo del tema, más complejo que el derecho de reproducción y copia, y repiten solo la parte que les beneficia.

Si están por los derechos de autoría, ¿por qué no hablan de la relación desigual de autoræs (arte) frente al mundo #editorial (negocio)? Ah no. NUNCA les oirás eso.

April 21 #editorial #cartoon by @deadder in The Globe and Mail. It's inside an #ElSalvador #prison, where several prisoners, including #LadyLiberty, stand close to a wall, heads down in despair. A #guard says: #Trump is sending us everybody he doesn't want.

#Editorial folks, check out this April 24 #webinar from the Editorial Freelancers Association (EFA): "Helpful Platforms and Software for Freelancers, Part 2: Time-Savers," led by Quin Foster, starting at 5 p.m. Eastern Time.

Was passing by #ParliamentSquare earlier today and so I decided to jump back into a little bit of #photojournalism capturing this shot of a sign reading "trans rights = human rights", with the Palace of Westminster's Victoria Tower in the background.

Hola! Damos comienzo aquí a nuestra expansión por el fediverso. No hemos tenido demasiado éxito en plataformas cerradas, así que venimos a la frontera a construir nuestro hogar. Acompañadnos (por favor).

Member of #WallStreetJournal #editorial board claimed it is "desirable" to subject #Trump 3rd #impeachment to make up for damage he has done to #USeconomy with his "ill-founded" #tradewar. "A future Trump impeachment seemed all but guaranteed by last Wed morning. It seems only slightly less likely now. It may even be desirable to restore America’s standing with creditors and trade partners." the damage he has been creating since then belies his promise of a "golden age," https://www.rawstory.com/trump-doj-2671754073/

The Green Children of Woolpit is an English folk story about two children found near a Suffolk village, who spoke a strange language and had green skin. This gorgeous linocut illustration by Becca Thorne accompanies an article about the tale in the current BBC History Magazine. #editorial #folktales #linocut

Editorial question: Do you render text written in non-Latin scripts in italics, in the same way that I'd do with, for example, a phrase in another language that's written in Latin script?

I have a short phrase in Greek (among other scripts), subsequently translated, and am wondering if the italics are necessary since it's obvious it's a different language.

5 yrs ago the #WashingtonPost editorial board wrote "Democracy is at risk, at home and around the world. The nation desperately needs a president who will respect its public servants; stand up for the rule of law; acknowledge Congress’s constitutional role; and work for the public good, not his private benefit.”

#Billionaire baron buyer of that iconic #Potomac paper #JeffBezos has since put his thumb on the #editorial scale.

The once disagreeing voices needed in the editorial opinion pages are muffled and only bending truth to please the owner and his new pals at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave in DC. Bezos has since announced he is paying over $40 million for exclusive rights to a documentary about the first lady produced by the first lady herself and directed by a Hollywood cretin who was last seen being chased out of town under a cloud of rape accusations.

This ain't Katherine Graham's #WaPo, Woodward & Bernstein definitely don't work there anymore ... #Writers aren't telling truth or shedding light in darkness, but bending viewpoints towards vaguely defined support of the owner's interest in "personal liberties and free markets" ... and I , along with millions of others have canceled a long time #subscription.

#RuthMarcus tells of her final daze writing under Bezos editorial control, beginning with the passage...

"The values of the Post do not need changing,” Jeff Bezos told #employees when he bought the newspaper a dozen years ago. He echoed the words of the Post’s #owner Eugene Meyer in 1935, emphasizing, “The paper’s duty will remain to its readers and not to the private interests of its owners.”

...and ultimately reveals the rest of column that paper refused ... revealing "the unavoidable truth: the Washington Post I joined, the one I came to love, is not the Washington Post I left."

#WaPo #editorial by Catherine Rampell who is headed to #MSNBC to co-host the evening edition of "The Weekend" details #Drumpf's petty purges of accessible govt #data that " have been faster and more sweeping — picking off not just select #factoids but entire troves of public information." "deleting #taxpayer-funded data — information that Americans use to make sense of the world. In its absence, the president can paint the world as he pleases."
