#JimmyLai, the #HongKong pro-#democracy #media mogul who spent decades as a defiant thorn in Beijing’s side, was sentenced on Monday to 20 years in prison, the harshest penalty ever handed down for a “national security” offense in the semiautonomous territory.
The landmark ruling completes a yearslong effort by Beijing to dismantle the influence of a man it blamed for masterminding Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement.

#corporate "#journalism"
we are on #mastodon/ #fediverse because the profit motive in corporate #socialMedia means privacy defilement, free reign for bigotry/ ignorance, and #algorithm manipulation by #plutocracy agendas
the same applies to the #news #media:
#ventureCapital takes over dying traditional media outlets and puts right wing goons in the managing editor positions
we have nonprofit news (#NPR, #ProPublica, #TheGuardian, etc)
trust them
all else: beware
"NBC: 'Trump calls for ‘immediate negotiations’ on Greenland, but rules out using force' ...
Every story that treats 'I won’t use force' as the news, rather than 'I reminded everyone that I could use unstoppable force,' contributes to a distorted picture of reality. Readers who rely on mainstream coverage encounter a version of Trump that has been sanded down, made palatable, rendered comprehensible within frameworks that don’t apply to him."
"He said he wouldn’t do it. For now.
You won’t find this in any diplomacy textbook. It’s the language of a protection racket.
So how did reporters cover it?
NPR (original headline): 'Trump says
I won’t use force" to obtain Greenland in Davos speech'
ABC News: 'Trump rules out using military force to acquire Greenland in Davos speech'”
