“You can just tell by the nominees for cabinet positions and agency heads that this will be an administration of retribution,” Baron added. Trump’s impending return to power was a theme of the conversations at the Committee to Protect Journalists gala. Attendees discussed the need to report without fear or favor, to be open-minded but clear-eyed about what actions the Trump administration might take, and to avoid fearmongering but to consider a range of possibilities. Here are some of the specific concerns that have arisen among members of the media:In the second Trump term, legal threats and frivolous lawsuits could pile up, costing newsrooms money and time. The Trump administration could reinstate the Justice Department’s past practice of pursuing reporters’ records in leak investigations.

☆ Pay first, deliver later: Some women are being asked to prepay for their baby

“So, I paid it.”On online baby message boards and other social media forums, pregnant women say they are being asked by their providers to pay out-of-pocket fees earlier than expected. In some cases, they may cause women to forgo prenatal care altogether, especially in places where few other maternity care options exist. When a pregnancy ends, OB-GYNs typically file a single insurance claim for routine prenatal care, labor, delivery, and, often, postpartum care. In addition, many people are opting for high-deductible health insurance plans, leaving them to shoulder a larger share of the costs. Of the 100 million U.S. people with health care debt, 12% attribute at least some of it to maternity care, according to a 2022 KFF poll.

Posting on Bluesky, an X rival, Helmuth said Thursday that she’s “decided to leave Scientific American after an exciting 4.5 years as editor in chief” without mentioning her previous comments.

New York CNN —Donald Trump’s return to power is a hinge point for the American media – in ways big, small, and to be determined. A severe trust deficit exists between the Trump base and big institutional media outlets. “Maybe ‘misinformation’ is a lazy word that was never applied to press coverage of Biden’s health or the border. Thus, Trump’s reelection portends a new period of hostility with major media outlets that strive for impartiality as well as partisan outlets that oppose him. Further, will media outlets engage in self-censoring to appease Trump, and if so, how will readers and viewers who oppose Trump react?
