State-funded journalism - people complain of using taxpayers’ money

Journalism funded by private interests - people complain of bias

Journalism funded by customers - people complain of clickbait to sell more rags

Not sure what your comment is supposed to indicate. That they disclosed a source of funding when most aren’t even bothered to?

They detail the work they did with that grant money here:

Looks like it built an AI editing assistant with Google News and Polis.

What specific point are you trying to make, here? Do you think a news organization should not be acquiring tech tools? Do you think that state-funded journalism matters, in this context, or do you just think those are good bogeyman words?

Come on, be proud of your opinions. Don't hide behind scare quotes and insinuations. Don't be a coward.
