Meyer said he has been flooded with offers of help from press freedom groups and other news organizations. But he said what he and his staff need is more hours in the day to get their next edition put together.
Both he and Newell are contemplating lawsuits — Newell against the newspaper and Meyer against the public officials who staged the raid.
What happened is terrible, and he and the staff must be in so much pain right now, but this is Meyer’s opportunity to step up and tackle the bigger issue vs focus on what’s happening to him.
A small local paper can miss an issue if it means making a national point about the abuses that allow small-town overreach to occur. If they’ve never missed an issue before, that even becomes a positive in court. If he doesn’t accept the help, and doesn’t file lawsuits, this will be a distant memory.
It will be like he’s in an abusive relationship with the local government. “That’s just how they are, but I’m getting to do my thing now, so oh well,” and the abuses there, and everywhere, continue. I truly hope that’s not the case.
Slightly off topic. A lot of public schools already get free meals thanks to federal education dollars. The school lunches are free in my area because of this, even though the (red) state won’t act.
The state has attempted to kill off those dollars in the past.
“Disaster tourism” is a thing. A very disgusting thing. Rich people with no fucking heart go tour the affected area and look at the suffering people like they’re a zoo. Then they “help” by spending a few hours volunteering and claim they’re doing something.
“I offered a real date. Dana White (UFC boss) offered to make this a legit competition for charity.
“Elon won’t confirm a date, then says he needs surgery, and now asks to do a practice round in my backyard instead.
“If Elon ever gets serious about a real date and official event, he knows how to reach me. Otherwise, time to move on. I’m going to focus on competing with people who take the sport seriously.”
The very same people screaming about trans women and girls in women’s sports were the ones happy that the US Women’s Soccer Team lost the World Cup. They can’t even decide whether or not Women’s Sports is a good thing.
It’s been 8 hours since the MicroWave notified me that my HotPockets were ready. Maybe, for the first time ever, I won’t burn off the roof of my mouth on my second bite.
Weird, it was toggled on in my settings but I don’t remember checking it. I guess I thought it was for making bot accounts visible when I first signed up? Thanks for flagging.
I doubt that will ever happen, but artifacts in museums can absolutely be given back to indigenous nations without much effort on the museum’s part. They just don’t want to.
I would like to note that there’s plenty of war loot the US has that we took from dead Nazis, Imperial Japanese, Central Powers, Confederates, etc, and that’s pretty dope and they shouldn’t have it back.
Nowhere does it mention owning a house with a garden. Even if you could own or co-own a flat or a terraced house you wouldn’t have a landlord leeching from you every month.
… Besides, not all 8 billion people live in America
