Anytime! It's rough out there and public servants of all strokes feel a lot of the heat*, unfortunately. It's insane how much of the public sector has been privatized. I know journalism is kind of in a grey area as far as that's concerned but we've been ignoring that for far too long. I'd go so far as to say all vital infrastructure or services should be a part of the Commons, left for communities to manage for their residents, with significant legal protections against privatization, nepotism, and profit. These are all things we need to live and be active in our community/state/country and should be treated like the resources they are instead of commodities to be bought and sold
