Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google.
My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence!

wow can't believe slurs would do that
2026 so far...
The “shield” is intolerable here as well.
“Parents tried to shield their children from water. Instead they died of dehydration.”
That’s what the @nytimes.com headline here says. Both “shield” and “instead” appallingly reinforce anti-vax attitudes and frames.
There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States — until now
Glad people are settling on the term "pervert glasses". Bonus points if you also say it while posting a picture of Mark Zuckerberg or call them Mark Zuckerberg's pervert glasses.
What if there was a mindful way to steal people’s art, pollute Black neighborhoods, and raise everyone’s electric bill?
It's amazing how many people who pretended to have principles in the past have really showed their asses during the Trump II administration.
Capitalism!
Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers.
Don't. Platform. Lying. Liars. To. Performatively. Lie. On. The. Teevee. Shows.
If you've screwed up & done that anyway, immediately end the interviews when the performative public liars performatively lie in public.
What is journalism, anyway?
A comfort system that works. For a few minutes anyway. merrillmarkoe.substack.com/p/navigating...
You notice how quiet China has been?
That's because you never interfere with an enemy who is in the process of destroying himself.
You really can't expect much from a country that has to do this
I’m not a “both parties are the same” guy but both parties really, really suck right now, just in different ways.
For ppl who aren't aware:
Old temperate forests are insanely rare nowadays and extremely important ecosystems lost forever once cut.
They're not just "old trees" but intricate networks of trees, fungi and all kinds of living creatures.
You CANNOT replant this!! Once it's gone it's lost FOREVER!!!
Today should be your 38th birthday.. When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..
Alex's mom on his 38th birthday.
I just don’t think the opposition party should feel it necessary to be more careful in criticizing a war than the party in power is in starting one.
The day after we put the final touches on issues #88-91 of “Swamp Thing”, news broke about the passing of Tatjana Wood, the original colorist on the series. Tomorrow, March 2nd, would have been Tatjana’s 100th birthday. Let’s raise a glass to one of comics’ originals.

“Goals are not plans, they’re things you hope happen.”
Why can’t billionaires buy these shitty newspapers instead of Washington Post and LA Times?
I know this feels pointless but everyone has to call their congressional reps and say they oppose war with Iran and they oppose Trump illegally starting one without congressional approval — both

I have a Ramones LP that skips in the exact same place it did 40 years ago that gives me flashbacks.
WHAT’S THE RUSH
I can’t give much credibility to a major mouthpiece who supported the rise of fascism (especially one who declares “we thought the victory won in 2024 would be finally time to put America first”) just because she tapped out of the ring and cashed in her winnings.
The same people who prosecuted a guy for throwing a sandwich at a guy playing soldier are ok with this.
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
