@EmmaSzewczak My guess is the early reports were in languages that use gendered occupational nouns, then when it was translated the gender was kept without much thought if it was relevant

It's interesting how every report on the dutch eurovision entry's ban foregrounds the incident as involving a "female" crew member, despite the fact it wasn't a sexualised or physical incident

@sirin_kale Saw a few people ordering these at a bougie brunch place (not London!) when I'd assumed they were only on the menu to make the £4 coffees look cheap

You can follow updates on what journalists in Gaza are dealing with in IPI's Gaza Journalism Dispatch. The 3 months of the war have seen more journalists killed (at least 75) in this span of time than in any other modern war or conflict on record. ipi.media/ipi-gaza-journ…

I thought I’d finally make a thread about the audience engagement project I did with @THECITYNY in the fall, which was all about using physical media to promote their online service journalism. (featuring my presentation slides!) 🧵:

Young people will still have that chance of course, it just won't be in the UK. This is such a short-sighted policy, mad to be actively trying to cut the UK off from the rest of the world.

I moved away from the UK at 22 to earn far less than this (and still a decent starting wage!) Pre-Brexit it was simple, it changed my life for the better and I feel so sad for the people being denied this chance. Except -

Lots of people are fairly focusing on the socially important jobs below this salary threshold. But so few young people in *any* sector earn this much. How much culturally poorer will we be without accepting young people who come here to pursue a career or to join their partner?

🚨 BREAKING: Rishi Sunak will increase the salary threshold so that EVERY migrant has to earn over £38k before coming to Britain in a major plan to slash migration He will also announce new limits on them bringing family [@JackElsom]

This is simply an extraordinary study. Researchers gave $7,500 (CAD) to homeless people in Vancouver. The result? The program *saved* money. It helped many of them to move into housing faster, which saved the shelter system $8,277 per person. 🧵👇

Great analysis from @jburnmurdoch. People without parental housing wealth need to earn an extra £25k a year in order to have the same chance at getting on the ladder ft.com/content/985a60…

The Government keeps claiming the public wants to send refugees to Rwanda. Tonight on #bbcqt: “Even though we have more people who voted Conservative than any other single Party here, is there anyone who supports sending people to Rwanda?” Wow. 🔥

finally, someone in the media using their platform and class position to openly critique the housing system instead of just getting defensive or playing dumb. thank you @isoldewrites! this is the way to do it.

Wrote - with some trepidation - about how I could only afford to buy a flat in London with a large withdrawal from the bank of mum and dad and that we all need to get honest about just where those mighty six-figure deposits are coming from... thetimes.co.uk/article/the-tr…

@MartinSLewis @bbc5live I lived in Sweden (6yrs) and Austria (1yr). They have their problems but my experience was a far better quality of life for the average person. Taxes for average earners were very similar, healthcare good, public transport great, rental systems fairer (esp Vienna)

@Lynn_Nothegger It should just say "'Freibad' as open-air pools are called in Germany", don't think its correct to say Freibad 'literally' means free pool because that's not what frei is doing here

@AgnesStenbom talks about @IN__LAB's project whatifthenews.com and the ideas for news that young Swedes from low-trust groups came up with. One idea was a 'news budget' - max 30 mins for news per day - the opposite of most publisher's focus on time spent #IPIWoCo

@AgnesStenbom: "With the help of AI, we could create new types of journalism and news experiences." 💡But reaping the full potential of AI to reach the people currently on the outside requires us to think differently #IPIWoCo
