“Google Podcasts...stands alone among major platforms in its tolerance of hate speech and other extremist content... None of the [hate speech] podcasts appeared on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Stitcher.” - @nytimes https://t.co/BPWa6IAgaH — PolitiTweet.org

@FollowmeNow2020 @NewsLitProject The highest price won’t matter for the purpose of this discussion. It’ll be an outlier. Just like the lowest price will. — PolitiTweet.org

@DanEvansJr @iTunes @netflix @peacockTV @rickygervais As I said in the tweet, it’s the anniversary of the US version. And, FYI, @rickygervais gave his blessing to doing a US version and was an executive producer on the American show. And, yes, he was great in the UK version, which he co-wrote with @StephenMerchant. — PolitiTweet.org

@FollowmeNow2020 @NewsLitProject According to the site https://t.co/R0GVZJfBJa, the average price for regular gas in San Diego is $3.92. The Los Angeles average rounds up to one cent more. Neither is remotely close to the $5.55 at this outlier single station in L.A. cherry-picked for this tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow, 3/24/21, is the 16th anniversary of the premiere of the U.S. version of The Office. It was the first TV show to be saved by digital viewing - heavy downloads on @iTunes . And, years later, huge popularity streaming on @netflix to a whole new audience. Now on @peacockTV. https://t.co/vPgdFePGl4 — PolitiTweet.org

Purveyors of disinformation often find an outlier example to push an agenda. Here's a great example as highlighted in @NewsLitProject's free “Get Smart About News" newsletter this week. Subscribe —> https://t.co/5Ahj1SBuia — PolitiTweet.org

@salsop @Apple @BentoStack @AppleTV I’m just referring to using voice search on Apple TV, nothing more. And in those cases, I am almost always looking for something specific I already have in mind. Most often I’m trying to find out which streaming service has a movie or TV show I’m interested in. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@salsop @Apple @BentoStack @AppleTV That absolutely isn’t the case in my experience. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@salsop @Apple @BentoStack @AppleTV I have it. Its lack of voice search is a huge deficit for me. — PolitiTweet.org

@beetsje @Apple We do the same! Our screensaver is photos of our grandchildren. To me, it’s another app! — PolitiTweet.org

@davsklaus @Apple That’s not my main problem with it. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@JoannaStern @Apple We have it. It’s good, but missing some functions like voice search. I’m sure they couldn’t license that. — PolitiTweet.org

@shortideas @Apple When did I ever claim to be a novelist? And why is it “sad” to watch brilliant movies and TV shows or listen to smart podcasts and wonderful music. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@Sharmaji_says @Apple I did talk about that. And what’s strange about using an iPad? — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@GeorgeSilverman @Pogue I am not aware of any such thing. If Apple, or any company, could achieve this, with full @US_FDA approval, it would be a multi-billion dollar business all on its own. But, again, I have no evidence that it’s real. — PolitiTweet.org

@CHAITANYA5 @Apple Among other things, if you are ensconced in the @Apple ecosystem, as I noted in my original tweet, it synchronizes with your other Apple devices to display Apple Photos, play Apple Music and Apple Podcasts, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

I’m aware of the rumors that a new version may be coming. Can’t wait to see it. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

Pandemic year lesson: Our 4K Apple TV is now the 2nd most frequently used tech product in our house (after iPhones). Yes, it’s costly & the remote is a pain. But we are ensconced in ⁦@Apple⁩’s ecosystem, & it has all the key streaming services. Plus the output is superb. https://t.co/a7ilUGkN21 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s an act of faith to wear any computing device on your body. Should we trust a wearable from @Facebook that reads certain signals from your brain? Fascinating piece by @LaurenGoode explains Facebook’s wearable project and raises the question. — PolitiTweet.org
