State control of the news media is shaping what AI chatbots say. New research in Nature finds LLMs give more pro-government answers in the languages of countries with less press freedom. @edri@eupolicy.social #AIAccountability #PressFreedom https://www.blueprintforfreespeech.net/en/news/how-state-media-control-produces-regime-friendly-ai-models

Midnight on Truth Social, the President did two incompatible things in one breath and noticed neither. He said the leakers of these treasonous statements are being hunted down and long-term jail sentences will be sought. He also insists the reports are false. You cannot hunt the leakers of a thing that never happened, and there is no crime in disclosing fiction. #Politics #Democracy #News #Journalism #PressFreedom #Whistleblowers #Pentagon #Accountability #Resist #USPolitics #Military 1/4

In one thumb-typed paragraph he confirmed the reporting he meant to deny, at the hour the comms team had clocked out The reporting: CNN counted nearly 80% of the THAAD interceptor inventory expended and roughly half the Patriots. Reuters says the Army burned virtually all of ATACMS and PrSM. The Payne Institute counted almost 11,300 munitions in sixteen days #Politics #Democracy #News #Journalism #PressFreedom #Whistleblowers #Pentagon #Accountability #Resist #USPolitics #Military #FreePress 2/4

New Deep Dive: Iranian-linked hackers hit water systems in 7+ states this summer — no ransom, just disruption. At the core: a known, unpatched Rockwell PLC vulnerability sitting in thousands of exposed U.S. systems since 2021. Federal agencies call it an urgent Iran-affiliated threat. Trump blamed Minnesota instead. We dig into the tech, the timeline, and the disconnect.

A fascinating article about how a group of journalists working for the Hungary state news agency quietly documented all the ways the news was manipulated under the Orbán regime. They have now released a detailed report. Among many things, this is a terrific example of resistance during the rule of authoritarian regimes. Document, document, document the abuses because one day the sun will shine and the truth can be revealed. #Hungary #resistance #PressFreedom #journalism https://telex.hu/english/2026/08/04/nearly-500-page-document-compiled-by-hungary-s-state-news-service-staff-details-how-news-was-manipulated-during-orban-era

@chum1ng0@infosec.exchange I responded to your message on Signal, but let's keep this here because it may be a press freedom/ free speech issue. What blog/platform banned your blog? And what reason did they give? And do you have a complete backup that you can upload elsewhere? As I mentioned the other day, there are free legal resources and help for independent media, but first explain more about what happened and why. #pressfreedom @freespeech #censorship (For those of you who don't know, Chu used to report LatAm breaches on DataBreaches.net. It's hard for me to imagine how he would get banned for the kind of reporting he does, but... let's find out. )

She was 13 when the world decided who she was. At 24, she scored the first run in the first game of America's first pro women's baseball league in 72 years. Mo'ne Davis never stopped playing — the sport just had to catch up. New deep dive, out now on Patreon: 72 years, 4 failed leagues, and one long way back to first. 👉 https://www.patreon.com/Free_Press_Forever #AureFreePress #Journalism #IndependentJournalism #PressFreedom #WomensBaseball

International community must end Israel’s media blackout on Gaza, protect journalists, ensure access to press equipment (Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, 2026-07-26) https://euromedmonitor.org/en/article/7084 ——— >> Urgent international efforts are needed to lift the media blackout in the Gaza Strip, protect journalists, enable the immediate entry of independent international media, and ensure access to protective gear and press equipment, as journalists continue to be targeted for over 1,000 days during the ongoing genocide in the enclave. >> Barring foreign journalists and independent international media from entering Gaza during this time, along with targeting Palestinian journalists, hampers independent international oversight of Israel’s ongoing crimes in the #Gaza Strip. This restriction makes independent verification of events difficult and hinders the collection of evidence on serious violations of international law… #PressFreedom #MediaBlackout #palestine @palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com

A t-shirt with the slogan "I am a bookstore clerk" (我是書店店員) has gone viral in Taiwan. This follows the arrest of a bookseller wearing a t-shirt with the slogan in Hong Kong last week Hong Kong authorities claim that some of the books being sold breached Hong Kong's national security law. One of the books may have been 'Let Only Red Flowers Bloom' by NPR journalist Emily Feng https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/23/taiwan-hong-kong-independent-bookstore-raids-china-censorship #HongKong #Taiwan #bookshop #journalism #PressFreedom #香港 #台灣 #我是書店店員

Press freedom is under pressure globally and in Europe. Recently, in Brussels, journalists were removed from a US administration event just for doing their job. This is a major wake-up call. A free, independent media landscape is vital for democracy. As a pan-European party, Volt believes that cross-border threats to press freedom require strong European action. We must protect journalists and secure free speech. Full statement: https://volteuropa.org/news/free-speech-for-me-but-not-for-thee #PressFreedom #Press #EUpol #Volt
