    The billionaire founder of Craigslist, Craig Newmark, is using his fortune to further shape journalism into partisan activism to help Democrats win elections. He is the nation’s leading financier of the “mis”- and “disinformation” industries and is now the largest private stakeholder in America’s legacy journalism schools. The most recent Twitter Files released by Matt Taibbi add a deeply disturbing new layer to the story. They show Newmark is at the very heart of an incestuous web of government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and corporate media institutions operating in concert to censor political opponents on social media. Newmark is financing the...

    A 32-year-old Kenyan woman named Irene Gakwa has been missing since Feb 24, after getting involved with a man she met on Craigslist in the U.S. Craigslist is an American classified advertisements website with sections devoted to jobs, housing, for sale, items wanted, and services. It also features personal ads. According to her parents, Gakwa moved to the U.S. three years ago to attend nursing school. Her family said they had no idea she had moved in with a man she met on Craigslist. They have not heard from her since. Her father, Francis Kambo, told CNN that Gakwa spoke...

    A group of residents in McKinleyville’s Azalea Heights neighborhood are up in arms over the killing of one of the most polarizing members of their community: a peacock known by most as Mr. P, or Azul, or Peony, depending on who you ask. The multi-monikered animal was found dead of an apparent gunshot wound on Wednesday after one resident, who was irate by the bird’s frequent 5 a.m. wake-up calls, decided to put a hit out for it on Humboldt County’s Craigslist page ...the “Wanted” section on June 13, followed by instructions on where and when to find the bird....

    LaCorte News ^ | 8/28/2020 | Damjan Tutarkov
    The New York Times this week published a lengthy sympathetic story about three men the paper suggested were guilty of the victimless crime of trying to have sex with underage girls. One of the men was Jace Hambrick, who the Times describes as a nerdy gamer who “wasn’t someone who could meet women at a bar.” So he gave Craigslist a try. There, he met girl who said she was 13, although the Times defends Hambrick by saying he thought she was older than she claimed. “Jus gamer gurl sittin’ home on sunny day,” the girl’s ad read. “we can...

    For 100 miles, 18-year-old Sanoma Blakeley and her horse, Goober, battled some of the toughest terrain in California’s Gold Rush country. They crossed rivers, traversed canyons, and pushed through elevation changes. It was 16 hours of heart-pumping adrenaline and incredible athleticism as this unstoppable team refused to slow down or give up. After riding all day and with the sky pitch black above them, they sprinted across the finish line to claim their first ever win at the Tevis Cup. Eight years ago, Blakely’s father found Goober listed for free on Craigslist. The purebred Arabian horse was two years old...

    A Hawaii man is accused of conducting an elaborate cyberstalking campaign against a Utah woman and her father by sending unwanted repairmen, food deliveries and other visitors to their home. The father estimates that between August 2018 and March more than 500 people came to their North Salt Lake home at the alleged stalker's behest, and that some of the visits stemmed from the suspect "posting the family's address on Craigslist stating that the homeowner wants drugs and prostitutes to come to the house," according to a federal motion to detain the suspect.(snip) There are few details available about the...

    When investigative journalist Julia Angwin worked for ProPublica, the nonprofit news organization became known as “big tech’s scariest watchdog.” By partnering with programmers and data scientists, Angwin pioneered the work of studying big tech’s algorithms — the secret codes that have an enormous effect on everyday American life. Her findings shed light on how companies like Facebook were creating tools that could be used to promote racial bias, fraudulent schemes and extremist content. Now, with a $20 million gift from Craigslist founder Craig Newmark, she and her partner at ProPublica, data journalist Jeff Larson, are starting The Markup, a news...

    Craigslist has yanked its personal ads section in the wake of an anti-online sex trafficking bill that passed in Congress this week. The Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act, or FOSTA, makes websites criminally liable for content that its users post, including prostitution ads and sex-trafficking content. Craigslist — whose personals include bawdy categories such as casual encounters — said it pulled ads because it wasn’t worth running afoul of the new law. “Any tool or service can be misused,” the website said in a statement. “We can’t take such risk without jeopardizing all our other...
