Plus, I am Blessed and Cursed by being a native San Franciscan from a middle-class family. Whew — when I landed in *Elite* MassComm spaces in the Northeast/DC, I might as well have had three heads and seven arms. 🙃

Coda: Here’s @nytimes.com 2013 report on its parting ways w @bostonglobe.com. At that time, we were living in #MoCoMD. I was newly divorced and ReSkilling from Journalism into #StratComms. News of the sale in 2013 made me Misty-Eyed, if also glad that the DMV market offered me many #MassComm options

*My Well-Earned bona fides are now *officially* de trop, due to so many Ostensible “leaders” in #MassComm sectors who have quietly Capitulated to Idiot, Racist, Corrupt 47’s AntiBlack project. Good luck to them! The demographic Math of America will eventually prove the ROI folly of their Cowardice 😚

MassComm UiTM dedah pelajar Tingkatan Satu hadapi cabaran AI
Kami sangat berterima kasih atas peluang yang diberikan kepada pelajar. Program seperti ini tidak selalu dapat mereka sertai, jadi ia memberi mereka peluang untuk mendapat pendedahan dan mempelajari perkara baharu di luar apa yang biasa mereka pelajari di sekolah.

Last: The private sector MassComm field (Journalism/News) that I worked hard to join and add value to from late ‘80s to mid-aughts, is utterly Failing the most vulnerable American residents in 2026. Worse: The Public Sector Comms field is also now failing Taxpayers due to 47 and complicit HR units🤦🏽♀️

Many of the “guardrails” ostensibly baked into the ExecBranch, Congress, and SCOTUS are, in fact, Honor Systems. Thus, when external watchdogs (the U.S. news biz+ MassComm Tech) fail to abide by their OWN Honor System (inclusive staffing), the public falls for a Racist ConMan🤷🏽♀️ #ByeByeFreeSpeech👇🏾

And this is of course to say nothing of the way in which MassComm/Media has changed the way people globally interact with English as a spoken language given that the vast majority of Film/TV that is exported from the US is written by people in Los Angeles and using that dialect as a baseline (3/4)

If you are a #masscomm scholar please consider voting for Matt Haught for AEJMC vice president. He has been a dear friend and mentor for years, and I am confident in his abilities as a strategic leader. He is kind, innovative, and has a clear vision of growth and success for this organization!

Any #qualitative #masscomm scholars have any opinions about Nvivo vs MAXQDA software for analyzing qual data? Specifically wondering if one is better than the other for transcribing/coding participant interviews 📝👩🏼💻

Prescient but, alas: No one in any position to stop the RW Takeover of MassComm sectors listens to Black Women. 🤷🏽♀️ “The tech industry is nearly wholly centered in an exclusionary bubble of white men who finance, develop and market the platforms and applications.” — Me, via @therootdotcom.bsky.social

“Decision Closure” is a great description of Users mistaking an LLM’s seeming confident responses as “Facts,” without questioning the VERACITY of the responses! It is maddening to me, someone who trained + works for years in the process of factual verification (MassComm public interest operations) 🤦🏽♀️

Some of us alerted the U.S. News Biz in mi-2010s that the rise of the #SiliconValley MassComm Tech Cos that were eating the American news biz and refusing to hire qualified Black + Latino qualified Engineers, Marketers, Comms Pros, was Bad for democracy. Alas, we were ignored. #HowWeGotHere 🤷🏽♀️
they 100% have no idea AI is hated. they're surprised every time. When I've told them, they think I'm lying, joking, making it up, or delusional.

Not gonna apologize for meeting or excelling at every single metric that #MassComm gatekeepers *required* during my Pro career—even as their Incompetence and Fragility led them to diabolically move the goal posts of “Success.”

Re the WH—OSTP citation in this @rollingstone.com report: I was there. I built a KickAss, national media roll-out campaign for the “Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights” report from #OSTP Sci-Tech experts who knew what was coming from #OpenAI, et al—yet my MassComm plan to Warn the public was doused

That “Free Speech” rap by Tech2.0 corps including FB/Meta was always a Lie, but Elected officials have been too Befuddled (euphemism for Dumb about MassComm 21stC Tech) to get it.

The legacy U.S. news biz CEDED its 1A / Watchdog of democracy responsibility to #SiliconValley in the 2010s. Both MassComm sectors have Failed the US Body Politic by PRIVILEGING White practitioners over Black, Latino, and WorkingClass Journos + CompSci experts for my entire life. #RacismThroughLine
