Most people don't trust most news most of the time, according to research from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. “Our problem is not simply that the public does not trust us, it’s that they do trust other dishonest brokers,” said Columbia Journalism School dean Jelani Cobb. He says that journalists should be more transparent in order to create trust. Nieman Lab's Gretel Kahn spoke to editors and journalists in Spain, Sweden, the U.S. and the U.S. about what that might look like. "We often make mistakes," says Eva Belmonte, managing editor of Spanish news outlet Civio. "But if you have explained how you've reached your conclusion and then you have done it wrong, at least you have explained your process."

I think a lot of the issue is editorial choices, not so much at the individual journalist level.
There's much better and more concise news from #tiktok than from the evening news, and that's mostly due to what each chooses to cover, and how much time is wasted on flash over substance.

"Quando se discute a tributação sobre as empresas, é frequente ouvir-se o argumento de que Portugal tem a taxa estatutária mais alta da União Europeia. Mas a verdade é que é muito difícil - para não dizer impossível - encontrar uma empresa que a pague. Quando olhamos para taxa média efetiva - isto é, a taxa que as empresas pagam efetivamente, depois de descontados os benefícios e deduções -, o valor é muito inferior: em 2023, foi de 18,5%, de acordo com os dados mais recentes da Autoridade Tributária.
As taxas de imposto que as empresas pagam efetivamente não só são bastante mais baixas do que a taxa máxima, como têm vindo a diminuir em praticamente todos os setores da economia nos últimos dez anos. Neste cenário, é difícil argumentar que uma nova redução marginal do IRC tenham um impacto muito expressivo sobre o investimento do setor privado.
Tendo isso em conta, a questão que se coloca é: quem ganha verdadeiramente com a medida? Quando olhamos para os dados da AT sobre a distribuição do IRC liquidado por dimensão das empresas, o que vemos é que mais de metade da receita é paga pelas empresas com volume de negócio superior a 25 milhões de euros, que representam... menos de 1% do tecido empresarial do país.
Além disso, se olharmos para o IRC liquidado por setor de atividade, mais de metade da receita é proveniente de cinco setores: o setor financeiro, o imobiliário, a construção, o alojamento e restauração e o comércio.
Estes dados dizem-nos duas coisas:
1. Uma redução do IRC beneficia de forma desproporcional as grandes empresas;
2. A maior parte dos ganhos concentra-se em setores com pouco potencial para a transformação estrutural da economia e que, com níveis de receita e de lucros avultados nos últimos anos, não precisam de incentivos."

@slyka So far, my results show neither heat nor UV damage to the agar coating when no sensitizer is present. I did one further sensitized contact print at 45 minutes exposure and had some blistering in the most well developed shadows and some emulsion lift on an edge during rinsing. I skipped the build plate drying step and did get a qualified success. The blisters dried into emulsion lumps. You can’t see the lumps in this photo, only from the side.
More tests coming.
The image shows a blue-toned photograph held by a person's fingers, placed on a lined notebook page. The photograph depicts a person walking away from the camera, carrying a long object over their shoulder and a bag in their hand. The person is wearing a plaid dress and dark shoes. The background features a brick building with large windows. The photograph has handwritten Japanese characters on the left side, and the bottom right corner includes the text "VENDORS DAN 100." The overall tone of the photograph is monochromatic, with a blue tint, giving it a vintage appearance.
