Talk about impact ... una campaña fantástica de la BBC para recordarle a su audiencia que el impacto de lo que hace va más allá de la sala de su casa.
Como se sabe, desde hace tiempo la venerable BBC está bajo fuego intenso de la derecha nativista (no solo británica, por cierto). Globalmente los populismos han impuesto la moda de desfinanciar a los medios públicos. Pues bien: ayer, en el entretiempo de la final del Mundial de Fútbol, la BBC lanzó esta nueva campaña publicitaria para sensibilizar a su público sobre qué se perdería si desapareciera la BBC. Creo que el mensaje no es solo válido para la BBC o los medios públicos: en este momento de cris global (tanto político como de la industria de los medios), el público tiene una responsabilidad especial (y espero que un interés especial) en hacer posible la subsistencia de la prensa profesional e independiente- youtube.com/watch?v=koftLxmT…

Pure joy. What a moment!
This is Sadie. She was finally reunited with her human, astronaut Christina Koch, after her mom’s voyage around the moon took her the furthest any human has ever been from their dog. She can't wait to hear all about the universe. 14/10

The Artemis II mission is bringing us so much joy here on Earth. Thanks y'all!
Safety first! The Artemis II astronauts can be seen in their eclipse glasses, worn to protect their eyes when they experienced a solar eclipse on April 6. The Sun, the Moon, and the Orion spacecraft aligned — and Moon joy was had!

I had the misfortune of booking a train from NYC to DC today. Not only it was 2 hours late, but hundreds of people had to wait in a freezing hall with no explanation. @Amtrak , do better. Countries around the world manage to run trains without abusing their passengers this way.

Replying to @AmericanAir
@AmericanAir , the passengers of flight 1237 MIA to ATL have been seated inside a plane with no AC for hours. The flight is +6 hours delayed for maintenance issues.

I loved that this interview focused on the lessons in serving communities, something that’s at the heart of @51stnews
It's great to see @tfrontado of TNC member @51stnews featured in this story by @eaXLR. "The 51st is not a redux of DCist. ... We’re focusing on local affordability, housing, education, watchdog journalism and coverage that shows a pride of place. current.org/2024/08/a-latina…

After three years dodging COVID, it caught up with me at #ONA23 . Time for my trusted “vicvaporú” to do its thing. If you were at the conference, please do a PCR test. And even if you weren’t, wear your masks!
