A new public benefit corporation backed by billionaires Reid Hoffman, George Soros, and others is launching Tuesday to fund new media companies and efforts that tackle disinformation.
Why it matters: Good Information Inc. aims to fund and scale businesses that cut through echo chambers with fact-based information. As part of its mission, it plans to invest in local news companies.
The group will be led by Tara McGowan, a former Democratic strategist who previously ran a progressive non-profit called ACRONYM.
ACRONYM invested in for-profit companies that built media and technology solutions for progressive causes. It ran one of the largest digital campaigns to defeat President Trump in the 2020 election, totaling $100 million.
One of the companies it invested in, called Shadow, made headlines last year for contributing to the delayed reporting of the Iowa caucus results.
Hoffman, the founder of LinkedIn, backed ACRONYM.
Details: Good Information is launching with a multi-million seed investment led by Hoffman and joined by investors Ken and Jen Duda, Incite Ventures, and George Soros.

Information that exposes the leftie narrative.
? I think the put the dis in front of information by accident.
They are going to an awful lot of trouble to silence Tucker.
Hmmmm! Pretty sure they meant disseminate mis/dis-information while quashing fact based truth. No?
They can’t silence us. Must really annoy them!
Translation: Fighting against Truth uncovering our blatant lies.
Who gets to decide what is correct information and what is incorrect information? I need to reread 1984. I thought it was fiction, now I find out it was a “how-to” manual.
1. “People perish from the lack of knowledge,” Solomon
2. “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” Jesus
3. “I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no man comes to the Father except through me.” Jesus
4. “Ye shall not surely die!” The evil one in the garden of Eden
FAKE NEWS on Steroids, coming up...
Anything they disagree with is disinformation. What a cyno/solipsistic world to live in... If they think God is that piece of fluff circling round their navel, then that is what God is. Theirs is a morality tale told by an idiot, sitting on the devil’s pitchfork saying God exists in the heel of my shoe.
Disinformation = the (actual) truth.
The only way to silence would be an EMP
Why are they duplicating what already exists?
I have a couple of suggestions for their company catch phrase:
“Good Information Inc., where we lie even if the truth sounds better!”
“Good Information Inc., where lying isn’t everything, it’s the only thing.”
Well...Soros has had a measure of success with his meddling in local AG races across the country. He very likely would view latching onto inforamtion outlets to be yet another ‘local’ issue.
Nothing good will come from this for ANY Freedom-loving American.
“A new public benefit corporation backed by billionaires Reid Hoffman, George Soros,”
Enough said. Anything the son of Satan backs is cancerous.
“As part of its mission, it plans to invest in local news companies.”
I’m pretty sure they already own my local news. I watch it to get, well, local news (actually, how many black people killed other black people the previous day), but of course they have to branch out to national news. The “vaccine” is the greatest thing in the world and there was an insurrection in January according to them.
Only doubleplus goodthinkers need apply to the new Minitrue. Inner Circle only.
