AI fakes spread disinformation. Is the distrust they create even worse? Manipulated images undermine our shared reality—and the democracy built upon it.

I'm going to share this story one more time, because I think the problem it describes -- being unable to determine what is true online or in the news, and just giving up entirely on trying -- is going to get more and more common. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

There's a lot of public confusion about the FOIA. What it should do - and what it actually does - are not always the same. The FOIA is an articulation of public entitlement to the people's records. View the full half-hour discussion here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NE9K... CLIP: youtu.be/VlMdDqq1QqM

SAUCER NEWS HEADOUMIERS VISITED BY FBI AGENTS On August 23rd, your Editor's apartment in Fort Lee was visited by two FBI agents from the New York City office. They were doing a "background check" on a man named Robert Vorwitt, who was apparently associated at one time with the New York Saucer Information Bureau {NYSIB). The agents asked your Editor for the address of Lois Jessup, a NYSIB member, in hopes that she could lead them to Vorwitt or at least give them some information on the man. We were unable to supply Miss Jessup's address, but we put the FBI men in touch with another NYSIB member who did. After the FBI visited Miss Jessup, we heard nothing further about the case.

Our evolving investigation of an FBI espionage probe that veered into flying saucer land just swerved into Jim Moseley's apartment in Jersey.

Abuse is horrible. In addition, survivors of SA and of domestic violence are often pressured to justify themselves and their experiences. This can be as traumatizing, and often more traumatizing, than the actual abuse that they survived in the first place. Believe survivors.
