“Kash Patel’s threats of retaliation against the media in the event of a second Trump administration are anathema to the First Amendment and to its protections for a free press and free expression," says @Shan_Jan, noting our 2018 #PENAmericaVTrump lawsuit pen.org/press-release/…

An "unconscionable and un-American" police raid in Kansas. What happened in "Marion County appears to be the latest in a line of state and local governments attempting to silence speech they find objectionable," writes PEN America's @Shan_Jan . msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-…

"This raid casts an incredible chilling effect on newsgathering." I spoke with @BBC__newsday this morning (timestamp14:51) about the alarming raid on the Marion County Record and what it may mean for press freedom in the U.S. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w1…

My statement for @PENamerica on Marion County law enforcement's appalling raid on a Kansas newspaper
PEN America@PENamerica
🧵Journalists rely on confidential sources to report on matters of vital public concern. Law enforcement's sweeping raid on The Marion County Record and confiscation of its equipment almost certainly violates federal law & puts the paper's ability to publish the news in jeopardy.

Bot detection tools play a vital role in helping journalists combat the spread of mis- and disinformation online. Twitter can, and should, ensure that the API access necessary to operate these tools remains available and affordable.

This election season, "journalists need all the support they can get to fight back against distortions and outright lies. Twitter shouldn’t be disarming them just as the fight gets started," writes @Shan_Jan in @TheHill thehill.com/opinion/techno… #misinformation #disinformation

So proud to have been a part of @rcfp’s amicus efforts in support of KQED and to see the recordings of this historic case finally unsealed.

I can’t remember a time before I knew of, and loved, Judy Garland. She, like Audra, never ceases to inspire me and bring me joy. Happy Birthday, Judy! Thank you for sharing your gifts with us. We are forever in your debt.

More accurately: the great @charliehogle agreed to co-author an article with me! We may not see eye-to-eye on who deserves the credit, but we definitely agree on the importance of anti-SLAPP laws.

JOURNOS in MN: wear press badge so police know TRO applies to you & even though it should prevent you from being arrested for failure to disperse, TRO only applies to state police (@MnDPS_DPS & @MnDPS_MSP) so safer course is to disperse if an order is issued. @rcfp
Mickey Osterreicher@nppalawyer
just participated in a call with MN @GovTimWalz , his staff & other media representatives re: situation in Minneapolis &Brooklyn Center. They assure TRO will be followed w/ Media exempt from any dispersal orders. Will no longer photograph media members and their credentials

Key evidence in Derek Chauvin's murder trial comes from bystander videos made in MN. Until recently, making similar recordings could be subject to criminal penalty in MA. It's vital that we protect the right of the press and the public to record public activity in all states.
