Read "Catch and Kill" by Ronan Farrow, regarding his experience with Weinstein's campaign against the publication of his crimes. It's exactly what you're asking for (the title is the technique's name), It's also a rather entertaining read.

Without reading the article yet: Ronan Farrow's Catch and Kill is an incredible in-depth account of efforts by The Weinstein Company, NBC, and The National Enquirer to use espionage and intimidation for suppression of reports of sexual misconduct.

The Wikipedia pages of some NBC executives were completely scrubbed of any hint of this suppression, for a while.

I trust most journalists. I don’t trust any newspapers.

Most news is too complex for the modern news format. And they have to cover too much information

There are tons of really good journalism books.

For example, Ronan Farrows articles are pretty crappy. But his books, including Catch and Kill, are excellent.

I read that book. I came across that Boies fellow at other times, too. SCO vs IBM. But also while reading Catch and Kill by Ronan Farrow (about Harvey Weinstein).

He appears to be of the 1% group.

I don't have a ready source, but the press in the US would usually comply with a request to censor news that some in government worried would lead to panic, blame, or accountability. Continued well into the 60's and 70's, and still present today.

The latest edition of Ronan Farrow's Catch and Kill podcast describes how NBC agreed to censor his story on Harvey Weinstein. [https://podtail.com/podcast/the-catch-and-kill-podcast/episo...]

I believe a better question to ask yourself in such a situation is "Are you ready to avoid senseless violence?" ie. "is this worth it?" I don't believe is worth fighting police during a demonstration. I'm biased, sure, but still if you are in such situation you need to stop for a moment and think about such questions.

Whenever I went to demonstrations -and, granted, its been a while since War in Iraq started- I made a very conscious decision about this beforehand. Its part of planning, because it might affect your OPSEC (things such as your possessions and your planned behavior).

I also believe its not a valid comparison between physical violence and emotional violence (such as threats). I'm currently reading Ronan Farrow's Catch and Kill, and I keep thinking: "now this is a fight worth fighting for". I'm at 2/3 and I have not read about physical violence [against the reporter, Farrow; not referring to the violated women!] as of yet.

If you've gone over before, they will charge you $10/50GB of additional data, capping at $200 more a month.

You can pay them an extra $50/mo to remove the data cap.

This is coming from someone who unknowingly got a $200 bill one month because of Comcast.

I left them and don't regret a second of it. Terrible customer service all around, and just an evil company from the top down, especially after having read Farrow's recent book Catch and Kill.

The MSM in the US is almost entirely corrupt. It's proven time and time again that it will push agendas, hide facts, kill stories, make things up...

If you doubt what I say I suggest you spend some time looking into MSM coverage of Epstein and Weinstein. Just recently it was leaked that ABC news killed an Epstein story for political reasons then tracked the whistleblower down at their new job at CBS and got CBS to fire them.

I suggest reading Ronan Farrow's Catch and Kill to get an accurate take on the current state of journalism:

> I am looking for Ronan Farrow’s ‘Catch and Kill.’ It appears, inexplicably, after two books not titled ‘Catch and Kill.’

This bothers me to no end in Google maps search results. It seems like every time I'm searching for some chain> the first two results are for stores that are hundreds of miles away and in towns that I've never visited (which Google should also know!). The one that's a couple miles away / the one that I've been to (and mapped to) a dozen times? Third or fourth on the list. Insanity.
