Journalists like myself were the first to break free of corporate media servitude. Now we face a backlash to disappear us by the very media establishment we threaten
I remember that talk, how much I enjoyed it and through it saw an insightful mind and honest heart. This, naturally, was reinforced by researching your story.
Funnily enough, I've joined the diaspora of "independent journalists" as a geopolitical opinion writer with the sole purpose of exposing the evil inherent in the "Anglo-American Empire", to use Carrol Quigley's book title as a descriptor.
Through my journey, I'm learning to write. I remain happily jealous of the talents of others like yourself, or Patrick Lawrence, or Chris Hedges, to inspire me to improve.
I regularly, thankfully cite your articles as they cross topics in which I believe the small readership I serve would take interest.
Thank U & all TRUE journalists for your integrity & courage in the face of mass media propaganda & the unconscionable corporate warlords & those that serve them! You all are doing a invaluable service…& yes there will always be those who want to “see behind the curtain” & I believe the #’s of those will grow!! ☮️💙
Zoom zoom zoom doom. What tepid stuff. One way one way communication? Nah. You need to have people probing and interviewing you and not letting this become a graduation speech. Your other work works, this is just selfie stuff, navel gazing.
Journalism? Engineering Consent. Propaganda. Long long time ago.
Just move on, Jonathan. Just keep doing the stories, not a recap of your bon voyage from The Guardian.
Excellent commentating strategy for self-promotion. Be an arsehole sociopath in the hope that people wonder who the arsehole sociopath is, and thus click your link like moths to the flame. Bravo.
Critical thinking has led me, to be pejoratively called, an anti-vaxxer (and questioning the evidence for viruses led me to be suspended for 8 months from Twitter). It's easy to see why when one follows the money.
Compassion for animals has led me to be called woke. It's easy to see why when one follows the money.
Thank goodness for substack where views can be expressed and science can be teased apart.
Another tactic so often used is the memory hole; coverage of the neonazi assault of the Russian speakers in the Donbass in 2021 appeared in the (Daily) Metro, all to be quickly forgot in 2022 with the Ukraine painted as pure as the driven snow. Pointing out the MSM's own contradiction is also invaluable.
I can’t imagine life without independent journalism. You not only expose the lies we are told but also the dirty web of contacts and influences that lie behind the lies. You help us keep our BS detectors honed and our scepticism fully activated. Thank you.
Thank you for your bravery and superb work, dear Jonathan! Keep fighting!
I really like this: a struggle itself is a form of victory! Thank you, Jonathan.
In a moral world, The Fifth Estate would receive all the awards.
I've bookmarked the full video for the weekend.
You are extremely brave. Thank you for persevering in this darkness.

Thank you for your writing.
Good luck, sir.
The proof is told in how 6 corporations control mainstream media.

Great to see you Jonathan and well said.
