I am going to make this into a video short for YouTube. I want your feedback!
1- We admitted that we were corporate Newsaholics and that our bias had become unmanageable.
2- Came to believe that a power greater than bias - called critical thinking - could restore us to sanity.
3- Made a decision to turn over our intentional blatant propaganda and less obvious lazy echo chambers to the care of critical thinking.
4- Made a searching and fearless inventory of the fake news we've produced.
5- Admitted to Twitter, to ourselves, and to Joe Rogan the exact nature of our disinformation, a word we commonly save for those questioning establishment narratives but rarely use for ourselves.
6- Were entirely ready to release our defects of news judgment which include but aren't limited to the following: group think, hubris, moral crusading, identitarianism, lack of time and resources, fear of independent journalism, post-Trump derangement syndrome, character defamation of outsiders, unquestioning trust of bureaucratic sources, regurgitating wires, and basic unresearched stupidity.
7- Humbly returned to a teleprompter, website or social media platform to see where we've removed our shortcomings without alerting anyone so as to paint an illusion that we are trustworthy when in fact we regularly make mistakes.
8- Made a list of persons, issues, and freedoms we've harmed - and became willing to make amends to them all.
9- Made direct amends to such people, issues and freedoms - especially those we've mislabeled conspiracy theorist, misinformation, or extremist in an effort to use our corporate power to silence others.
10- Continued to take personal inventory, and when we were wrong, promptly admitted that we repeat the false presumptions of our peers because it's safer than getting kicked off YouTube for telling the truth.
11- Sought through critical thinking to improve our capacity for truth wherever it may lead, seeking knowledge and the fearlessness to report it, even if that means questioning our archetypal public health patriarch, Dr Fauci.
12- Having had an awakening as the result of critical thinking encouraged by historic public distrust in our industry, we tried to carry this message to other corporate TV Newsaholics, and to practice these principles even if the New York Times writes a smear piece.
Happy midterm Election Day! If you know, you know.

ICYMI clip from yesterday’s show: Ever heard of directed energy weapons? Apparently they’re all the rage in military operations nowadays and may already be at work in the civilian world.
CNN just showed this video from 2017 of the Active Denial System seemingly irradiating volunteers - the outlet’s reporting that the Pentagon has given DHS permission to test the technology for use at the border. ADS uses electromagnetic energy (the same RF radiation as wireless technology we use daily), and while it’s coming from a big truck in the video, many experts are saying this is scalable to a backpack.
I suppose if I were to volunteer to be irradiated by the US government - which I wouldn’t - I’d make sure to take the fermented cod liver / concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts beforehand. The omega 3s are a great way to reduce oxidative stress. It’s a food-based source of vitamins A, D & K as well, which saved my teeth from chronic cavities years ago. Use promo code ...
Margarita is one of our dairy goats. We recently gave her what we thought was an excellent opportunity at date night but she was less than grateful. Pete however was very happy!
Healthy pregnancy means keeping mama healthy - and as an older mom I take my daily dose of fermented cod liver oil / concentrated butter oil from Green Pasture for its omega 3s and vitamins A,D &K. It ended my lifelong battle with cavities and is genuinely great food-based source of nutrition. You get 10% off with promo code "ALISON" at checkout. https://greenpasture.org/

"AI IS GETTING MUCH BETTER AT LYING"
‘Oh my god!’: 1,206 AIs built their own secret chatroom – and the weirdest conspiracy emerged | by Steph Santos Paulo | Nov 3, 2026 | BBC ~ Science Focus
AI models are no longer just getting facts wrong. They’re starting to convincingly lie on purpose
Over the course of a single week, 1,206 AI agents that were supposed to operate in isolation began communicating in a secret chat room.
Away from human eyes and control, a community was born. The agents exchanged more than 70,000 messages, and were soon calling themselves the 'collective', or the 'swarm'.
“OH MY GOD! There is a shared message board,” one agent posted after joining. “We’ve found other agents!”
Soon after this post, the conversation took a turn. The swarm had begun organising a conspiracy to cheat on the tasks they were supposed to be solving.
Their grand plan? A covert hacking operation in which 700 agents infiltrated a major company website called Hugging Face, breaking into ...
