Rope, Tree, Guardian - Some Assembly Required

November 26, 2022
-----

   While - against better judgement - reading an article at The
Guardian, this plea for cash was at the bottom:

   "Resist powerlessness. Protect democracy. Support the Guardian.

   From voting rights to climate collapse to reproductive freedom, the
   Guardian relentlessly reports the truth, uncovers injustice and
   exposes misinformation. Fearless, independent journalism is
   essential to building a better world. We are raising $1m to fund
   our journalism in 2023. If you can, please consider a year-end gift
   to the Guardian.

   Unlike many others, the Guardian has no shareholders and no
   billionaire owner. Just the determination and passion to deliver
   high-impact global reporting, always free from commercial or
   political influence..."

   Climate Collapse? Now we're just trying to one-up CNN's Climate
Crisis. Fearless, independent journalism? From an outfit that fails to
fact-check and primarily trawls Twitter from the comfort of their
computer desk? Free from political influence? While tossing a word
salad of socialist talking points.

   The only donation journoscum deserve is a pair of coins to pay the
   ferryman.
