Shows every time- it's not the crime, it's the cover up that brings you undone.

"no perfect way to fund journalism". There's a lot of that going around at the moment, what with the FaceBook welshing on its Australian arrangements, lest they encourage the Canadians' and everyone elses.

What is interesting is that it's happening at a moment when the _cost_ of publishing (anything) is approaching zero. Sure there are some avenues that are more expensive than others, but a WordPress page or a substack blog isn't so steep. Yes there are plenty of costs if you want to employ people to _keep_ publishing, but that's a bit orthogonal to getting the word out if you've got something to say.

The cost balance currently rests with the attention deficit and the war against sleep.
