Lovely piece from Sheryl Sandberg on authenticity, the power of data in disproving bias against white people and the value of perspective and long-term dreaming big.

There is something strange going on. In 2008 the global financial system collapsed, it stopped dead -- we didn't know if it could be restarted. Prices on goods and assets plummeted everywhere, instantly. In the recession of 2020 prices haven't budged. They seem frozen in time. Despite an economy in lockdown for a second month and 25 million unemployed — and there is no effect on prices? This reflects a widespread belief that unlike in 2008, the system is strong enough to handle an unprecedented disruption to the global economy. Yet we are more vulnerable to the derivatives markets today than in we were in 2008 when values imploded. Derivatives markets are far larger today and continue to be poorly regulated. A collapse in valuation and prices can cascade through an entire economy. It's a mistaken belief that the underlying system is healthy -- there is another shoe to drop and maybe a penny, too.

How should journalists report on COVID-19 when their older news stories inevitably transform into misinformation? The numbers they quote, the results of medical studies, their medical advice about face masks — becomes a mass media of misinformation that overwhelms people's searches and news streams. News content could carry live links for reporting data within stories, so that even long archived news stories would display the latest numbers within the story. News sites should remove stories that cannot be fixed with live data links. Google News normally downgrades news stories older than three months. Three weeks, maybe less, is likely a safer cut-off date for news before it turns bad. It's interesting that trusted media sources have not yet figured out how to deal with misinformation from their older stories. #onlinemedia #reporters #journalism #covid19 …see more
