What's inane is the idea that the important thing about a dramatic change in the composition of a school is whether or not it will lose federal dollars. https://t.co/7JqscDfGgb

TIL the advertising model is especially ill suited to news coverage, because advertisers “explicitly avoid advertising next to Trump-related content," including, apparently, critical reporting about Trump. https://t.co/veSO0PcGaW

Is the story here really "Trump cherry-picks ratings data!"? Or is it "Trump brandishes weapon that will terrify FOX"? https://t.co/6i6nsY4k8l

Like skyboxes, maybe these private big-$ airport amenities will be a way to finance airports in the future. The bigger the hassle for the common traveler, the more the airport can charge to avoid it!

Unlike skyboxes, this doesn't degrade what should be a common egalitarian experience. But it's another ex. of affluent buying their way out of government hassles that afflict everyone else. Why does TSA go along? Better thay should improve the basic, non-private experience.

Skyboxes for airports: "Private Suite" at LAX offers separate entrance, private room, and special private TSA screening and immigration (CPB) screening. https://t.co/Nf9I3vDMIm "Insulate, insulate, insulate."

We need a simple hand signal that says "I don't want to listen to your f—ing cell phone conversation. Go somewhere else." But in a nice way. (No need for a confrontation. Roles could easily be reversed one day.)

And I wouldn't mind disintermediating the mid-level editors at the @NYTimes. It's pretty clear to me, as a reader, that this is where the party line gets enforced. I'd rather read @maggieNYT's unmediated tweets. https://t.co/JbAKHLeglK

For example, foreigners (even Russians) can fund a big ad campaign attacking US media's 'liberal bias' because the ads are not "election influencing.” OK! Sure they aren't. Got it. Clear as day. https://t.co/vFqtepe5sz
