Hey folks, another week is in the books, which means it’s time for this week’s deadlines once again.
Before we get to that, this week saw the release of the State Media Monitor, a gargantuan database of state-administered media companies around the world gathered by the Center for Media, Data & Society. Perfect timing if you ask me…
According to the CMDS’ analysis, “the government’s control in the state media has reached extremely high levels… Nearly 80% of the 546 state-administered media companies in 151 countries covered by this report lack editorial independence.”
And of the “110 state media that have editorial independence, only 18 qualify as independent public service media. Most of them, a total of 11 outlets, are based in Europe… In contrast, there are no independent public media outlets in Eurasia, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latina America and MENA, a strong indicator of the widening gap between the quality and reliability of news and information in the West and the poor output of high-quality news output in the rest of the world.”
In other news, six years after ProPublica reported how Facebook allows advertisers to exclude users by race, the platform finally agreed to overhaul its algorithm and settled with the U.S. Department of Justice!
Be sure to also check out Monday’s new jobs update with hundreds of new openings at the likes of USA Today, Punchbowl News, Radio Free Europe, Canadian Press, DAZN, Der Spiegel, El Confidencial, Live Science, The Hill, Reuters and the New York Times.
