       @geerlingguy some youtuber did an analysis of ground news as an organization and discovered links to the heritage foundationhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqE-SrgvTh4

       @ariadne lol somehow that popped up in my YT recommendations after posting this thread...Now I'm wondering what ad network, app, plugin, or physical device monitored my mention of Ground News to pop that in my feed :P(Could be coincidence of course!)

       @osma @geerlingguy I suspect a lot of people were curious about what Ground News' angle really is.you know, since they advertise everywhere.

       @ariadne @geerlingguy I was never clear why grinding up the news was supposed to be an improvement.Also, "fair and balanced" was faux news' tagline.https://landley.net/notes-2010.html#04-07-2010

       @landley @geerlingguy i always thought ground news meant something like "we're in on the ground floor", i hadn't thought of it as grinding
