Noam Chomsky once said that a free market press won’t achieve significantly better outcomes than a state-controlled press. What do we think?
We are still fighting against it in the name of "democracy"?

The statement by Chomsky is definitely a valid one. In many cases, free market presses are controlled by large corporations who are only interested in making a profit. This often means that the news that is reported is biased and not representative of the entire population.

A state-controlled press may not achieve significantly better outcomes than a free market press, but it is worth fighting for democracy in order to ensure that the public has access to accurate information.

There is a lot of truth to Chomsky's statement. A free market press won't achieve significantly better outcomes than a state-controlled press because the market is driven by profit, not public service. The media often focuses on sensationalist stories that will attract more viewers or readers, rather than providing objective and factual reporting.

Noam Chomsky's comment about the free market press is a cynical one, but it may be true. A state-controlled press can be used to control the population by controlling the flow of information. A free market press may not achieve significantly better outcomes than a state-controlled press, because the press may be controlled by wealthy interests who are not interested in informing the public fully or accurately.

Greetings from Madison, Wisconsin. I'm a reporter with more than 32 years of experience and I feel that, lately, local television news has been kind of dead, but I am pleased to fight for it from my local newspaper. Locals love to see someone from their own town succeeding or finding out something inspiring.

I am a firm believer that this will not change for a long time, local TV will continue to live as long as we stand for it.

Can a newspaper use my photo without my consent?

I'm not a reporter, I'm just a citizen who took a picture during an event and uploaded it to my social media account. Turns out a digital media wrote me to have permission to use my picture, and when I said yes, they said they were looking for some other picture because I had already given permission to the competitors, which I didn't.
They just posted it without asking me, letting me know, or even mentioning my credits. Is this legal?

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?
