Thanks again. Great catch!
Lots of journalists have Mastodon accounts. However, many of them are inactive. There are also journalists who crosspost That is, automatically copy their tweets to Mastodon. This is a short list of journalists active directly on Mastodon.
The list will be added to periodically as other journalists hit their stride over here🙂 .
For a big list of journalists you can search through here >>> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14vfonxtyy0JFDxu5dZOZo-yAJrRXcu2lZ33atkFb7GM/edit?usp=sharing

My twitter followers are jumping ship. My engagement is dropping rapidly. They changed the algorithm to force feed me right wing accounts. And white supremacy, Islamophobia, & antisemitism on Twitter are being defended as valid points of view.
By contrast this Mastodon community is igniting robust dialogue, respectful disagreement, and offers little comfort to racists and bigots.
This is what Twitter could’ve been, and I’m really hopeful this is what Mastodon continues to be. Thank you all.❤️✊🏽

Breaking News: Hate speech on Twitter has jumped since Elon Musk took over, researchers found.
Musk “sent up the Bat Signal to every kind of racist, misogynist and homophobe that Twitter was open for business,” the head of one of the research groups said.

My mom grew up picking cotton in the 1950s. Yesterday, she waited in line to once again pick her son to represent Georgia in the U.S. Senate. We’ve come a long way, but the work isn’t done!
Please vote, Georgia 🗳

In an experiment that ticks most of the mystery boxes in modern physics, researchers announced they had simulated a pair of black holes in a quantum computer and sent a message between them through a "baby wormhole." https://nyti.ms/3AXsrH3

I took this photo at the start of the #GoldenEagle #Festival, October 8, 2019. Those fortunate enough, like me, to make it to this remote location were greeted by about a dozen mounted #Kazakh #eagle #hunters, who slowly rode their horses through the crowd, an eagle on their arm. I’ve been all over the world, but this festival ranks in my top three most amazing experiences.
Taken at the base of the Altai Mountains, outside of Bayan-Ulgii, #Mongolia, and ~100 mi/160 km from the nearly intersecting borders of Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Russia, and China.

Looks like Xi Jinping and the CCP have a lot on their hands. Protests continue to spread to other cities. The Zero #CoVID policy is being blamed on the deaths of more than 10 people trapped in an apartment building.

THE LORD’S PRAYER 5.0:
Our Father on Mastodon,
Harold be thy name.
Thy follows come,
Thy toots be done,
On the Fediverse as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily boosts,
And forgive us our replies as we also have forgiven those who have replied against us,
Lead us not into Twitter,
But deliver us from the evil one, Elon Musk.
For the kingdom, the power and the favorites are yours forever,
Amen 🙏
