Media like these! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
100%. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Cooperative ownership. Have journalists collectively and democratically own the outlets they work for. They elect management from among themselves so that leadership holds direct ties to the work being done. Decentralization in ownership and democratic participation are key. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
AP is a kind of cooperative, and then there are the several worker-owned co-op outlets. It works. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z

Worker-owned media is the future! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
You're right. Corporate ownership has led to poor news quality as profit maximization is held above all else. A worker-owned approach provides a better foundation for the retainment of the mission to deliver quality and truthful reporting. Worker-owned media is becoming popular. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
💯 Worker-owned media is the future. ☃️ go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z

Worker-owned media is a good start. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z

Journalist-owned media are becoming a popular model. It offers a decentralization of power over the news. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Here is a starter pack of worker-owned media. 💜 go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media in general is pretty great. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Here's a starter pack of a bunch of these. Ditch corporate media and support them! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Ditch the corporate media. They are accountable to profit, not people. Support journalism with a soul. It's time to strengthen our autonomy and build the future we want as members of our communities. Don't allow unelected rich folks to dictate how you live your life. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Here's a list of some non-corporate media. They might not be as large (yet) but most of them were created relatively recently and these alternative models are gaining in popularity for journalists and readers alike. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
For accounts that may not have been included in that one: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Great question! I agree it's daunting, but we have to start somewhere. My recommendations: 1. Here's a starter pack of independent & worker owned news. Follow all. See who you like & give them $ go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Let's support worker-owned media in the meantime. 😊 go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Time to support worker-owned media. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Hopefully, we begin shifting our support towards more independent media, including those that are worker-owned and are therefore more anchored in their communities. When things are owned by distant owners and shareholders, the product will be distorted for profit maximization. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Corporate media is ultimately a friend of the wealthy. Follow independent worker-owned media. Workers will be friends of the community because they are a part of it. Local ownership is the way forward. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Hi @stardustbluepr.com, I'm an advocate for worker ownership in media, unions, cooperatives, and economic democracy in general, if you want someone like that in your pack. 👋 Let's support worker-owned media! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Economic democracy advocate here if you want someone spreading awareness about unions, cooperatives, and worker ownership for a future starter pack. I've also created a few packs, including one for worker-owned media! 📰 Cheerio! ☃️🎄 go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
It's a list of accounts that one can use to easily follow a group of people under some common theme, such as a worker-owned media starter pack. People can sign up with one as well. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Edited an anti-oligarchy Santa! Let's #ResistOligarchy and be good to each other. Have a peaceful end of year! 🎄☃️ And feel free to ditch corporate media and support independent worker-owned media: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z

Remember to resist on the ground! Support worker-owned media: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z Have a safe end of year! ☃️
Hi Aaron, if you ever put together another pro-democracy starter pack in the future, I'm advocating for more democracy in our economy: unions, worker ownership, and democratic businesses/cooperatives! Here's a starter pack for worker-owned media: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z Have a safe end of year! ☃️
That would be an amazing thing. Hope to see more worker-owned media in general too. Local ownership means local control. Shareholder media has nosedived because the people who own it don't very much care about the quality of the product as long as they increase their margins. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Let's #ResistOligarchy together and support worker-owned businesses, cooperatives, and unions for a more equitable and inclusive econony that works for all people! ☃️ Support worker-owned media! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Let's #ResistOligarchy and support worker-owned media! ☃️ go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Advocate for economic democracy here! Unions, worker-owned businesses, and cooperatives all contribute towards a more inclusive and equitable economic system that works for all people. 🤝 #ResistOligarchy! ☃️ and support worker-owned media! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z 📰
Support an economy for the 100%, not the 1%! ☃️ I'm already in your previous pack, so I'm just here to spread this message. It's important to support local businesses and ditch the corporate media: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Remember to resist the oligarchy and to advocate for an economy that works for the 100%, not the 1%! ☃️ Support worker-owned businesses and ditch the corporate media: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is the future. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
That's unfortunate. The good news is there are more worker-owned news and media organizations being created in recent times. Hopefully they can thrive and fill the void left by corporate media. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Hope they create worker-owned media. There are a few already. It's a better model. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is the alternative model that exhibits more promise for honest journalism. Worker ownership in general provides benefits such as happier and more productive workers. Here's a starter pack of worker-owned media: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
MSM is NOT the only source for national news & is definitely NOT a source for local, by far. A list from @cooperatives.bsky.social of independent/worker owned/cooperative sources; many are regional news: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z @propublica.org & @motherjones.com break stories, often, & are sources for
💯 go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
💯 Here is another starter pack focusing on worker-owned media that may include a few others. Investors are primarily interested in making a profit and that often infringes on the truthfulness of media. Worker ownership addresses that. 💜 go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
When communities own their businesses, they are able to more effectively operate and abide by our democratic values without the pressures of shareholder capitalism. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
This one as well in case some are left out from those. 💜 go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is a good start. The issue with investor ownership is that shareholders are seeking a return, and reporting the truth isn't as profitable as presenting sensationalist drivel. Community ownership has the necessary foundation for truth-based news. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is a viable alternative for folks interested in distancing themselves from billionaire interests. Local ownership by community members rather than distant shareholders offers a greater foundation for reporting the truth. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Consider supporting worker-owned media. They are more closely aligned with their communities and are not constrained by profit maximization the way billionaire owned media typically is. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Let's support worker-owned media. They're well-equipped to cover the truth, divorced from the looming profit maximization monster lurking in the recesses of billionaire minds. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Great, added you to this starter pack! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is the future. They're anchored in their communities and directly connected to the people and the work, unlike distant shareholders who hold profit maximization over any idea of product quality. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is the superior alternative to the current profit-based news. If you can create a co-op, it'd be great! Many have created and joined such organizations and are offering something that is very valuable and needed to our society. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Hopefully, independent worker-owned media can also flourish and deliver where corporate media has failed. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Corporate media are the dogs of the wealthy. Consider supporting worker-owned media alternatives. Worker ownership in general is the viable alternative to corporate ownership, with real benefits such as more equitable distributions of income and greater worker productivity. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Worker-owned media is the future. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
We should support worker-owned media and take power away from the corporate media. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z

Worker-owned media? go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
We should support worker-owned media instead. go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
Yes, they can be structured as worker cooperatives, which are democratic businesses that are collectively owned by the workers. Here are a few of them: go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z

Follow and support worker-owned media! go.bsky.app/4vBEs7Z
