A dozen attorneys general are pressing Twitter and Facebook to step up their enforcement of anti-vaccine content, in a letter that says the platforms' failure to consistently apply their own policies will lead to more deaths: https://t.co/CLQjdPwIwL — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter steers clear almost entirely from the legislative discussion, except to reiterate that it supports a federal privacy standard (which is related but a different issue from content moderation). https://t.co/DzW0nNuDBp — PolitiTweet.org

Google is a little bit more wishy-washy, proposing hypothetical solutions in the abstract without endorsing a specific legislative approach. https://t.co/ZiF6sPo1dJ — PolitiTweet.org

Zuckerberg is the clearest about where he stands. Sounds like he's open to conditional liability a la the EARN IT Act (severed from the encryption fight of course), but leaves it ambiguous as to who gets to determine best practices and what they would be. https://t.co/BiIPBIeT4N https://t.co/E5aNJyv7gl — PolitiTweet.org

I don't know which view will win out. But the thing Substack will soon discover, if it hasn't already, is that journalism, like all business, is divided into two parts — the profit center and the cost center. Substack's discovered the profit center. Will the cost center follow? — PolitiTweet.org

This view holds that Substack is simply another facet of an informational ecosystem that rewards opinion, generalization, provocation and entertainment over "eating your vegetables." — PolitiTweet.org

That's the optimistic view. The pessimistic view is that the current market is an accurate reflection of reader priorities rather than one distorted by gatekeepers, and we should not expect Substack to support good journalism. — PolitiTweet.org

By elevating individual voices, Substack could turn this on its head. Independent writers who amass large followings could end up making more than they might if they had a byline under a publication's name. In this future, freelance reporting might witness a new golden age. — PolitiTweet.org

By this metric, "the market" — i.e. audiences as defined by gatekeeper outlets — doesn't value this work as highly as that produced by in-house journalists. Yet freelance reporting is essential. Often it's the only way you'll hear stories no one else will cover. — PolitiTweet.org

Historically, freelance writers have been forced to accept lower pay and higher risk in the course of their work. The implicit bargain here is that the freelance writer benefits from "freedom" to publish anywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

There are two contextual threads tied to this that could make Substack either a really great platform for journalism or a terrible one. They both deal with traditional media's relationship to freelance reporting. https://t.co/bo6UajzkKA https://t.co/XG7QysOOrv — PolitiTweet.org
