As we grasp what the #GuardianMediaGroup and #ScottTrust have done, legions are paying tribute to the Observer and the west's best investigative journalist @carolecadwalla.bsky.social
The biggest betrayal of 2024 goes to #ScottTrust #GuardianMediaGroup
Bad people have sacrificed the Guardian and Observer.
It's now painfully obvious, Steve, it was never about the Observer, it's about the Guardian.
Those with the power, #ScottTrust and #GuardianMediaGroup, sleep with the enemy; lie; steal; do whatever it takes, to destroy independent journalism. This is their mandate.
We were hoodwinked.
Claiming not to be owned by the oligarchy, those involved with
#TortoiseMedia are clearly just that.
#ScottTrust and #GuardianMediaGroup are frauds.
They are GIVING £5-million to #TortoiseMedia, for the Observer, and calling it a sale.

This is actually an excellent idea.
Why not replace the #ScottTrust and #GuardianMediaGroup?
Clearly, they are not fit for purpose.

The combination of the #Lack of transparency and the insane #Rush to get contracts inked by the #GuardianMediaGroup before Christmas is a clear sign of #Corruption.
I don't know what kind, etc., but this sale is not happening in good faith at all. #CookedBooks #Perfidy

Dear #GuardianMediaGroup: This WILL happen to The Observer and The Guardian if you allow a RW-owned media company to own them.
You sell these honorable, muckraking papers to a RWer and you are killing them. It's not hyperbole. See the LA Times, the Washington Post, the Baltimore Sun, etc.
#Solidarity #GuardianMediaGroup is naive to trust a Conservative media company. It will not honor the long liberal history of the Observer & Guardian's muckraking.
They must take seriously t/hard RW turn at T/Washington Post, LA Times, Baltimore Sun, & other major dailies now under RW ownership.
WHY would a respected media company (claiming to be a trust) attempt to
(sneakily) give away the Observer, valued at £30 million, to an unprofitable, unknown entity?
