@kentparkstreet1 You mean Simon Gardner, James Pearson and Blake Morrison of #Reuters? (source: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/global-art-banksy/)
If I'd written that verbose nothing-burger and presented it to the world as #journalism I'd be ashamed of myself. They should be, too. Very poor judgment by Reuters as well.

Any journalists want to write an article about all the environmental costs of the more than 10,000 Starlinks that are now in orbit? All I'm seeing are breathless articles mindlessly worshiping That Awful Billionaire for crossing the 10,000 satellite mark.
Every single one of those will come down in an uncontrolled reentry. That's a lot of metal in the atmosphere, and a lot of dice-rolling to see if any more pieces will make it to the ground.
SpaceX is truly awful.

I have just finished watching this and the several things pointed out that don’t make any sense is the bullet entry.

This is an interesting post from the producer of that video

"The problem is that most “Straight” or “Regular” size ranges only go up to a size 16. That leaves millions of people — over half of all adult women — who are excluded from standard size ranges."
Who does adult women's sizing serve? How have both the sizes and the body proportions of the most well-known brands changed overtime, skewing our understanding of what those bodies need, both in youth, and into their 30's and beyond?

We wanted to share this story from our sister publication, #Iran #War Dispatches, because of how hard it was for us to get.
Human interest reporting from inside #Iran is among the most difficult tasks.

After the run in with Israeli cops CNN anchor Emrah Çakmak showed how the authorities covered all of his phone cameras with tamper-evident stickers.
Israeli officials have reportedly stopped MANY journalist and onlookers from filming scenes of Iranian strikes.
Even filming the aftermath the next day in civilian areas can land journalist in hot water with Israeli police.
Stuff like this is profoundly depressing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-Vrhzqwr10
