LP, you’re creating issues that don’t exist

Much of the funding gets secured through the decadal survey, but it's not entirely immune to the effects of public perception.

If you read nasa's fb feed or website youll see plenty of posts promoting both telescopes.
There was one article that had a screenshot of a Hubble tweet (I think) congratulating the new kid on the block and looking forwards to working together into Hubbles old age.

I never claimed NASA was bashing or demoting the HST, I was discussing why they didn't provide the general public with some context by making direct comparisons between JWST and HST during the JWST image launch.
It's understandable, a lot of people still depend on funding that is basically delivered courtesy of the general public's opinion.

It just goes to show you how fickle the media can be!
Whether you agree or disagree with Bec Judd and her argy-bargy about Brighton crime, I've got say I feel for her now because it looks like some of the media are turning on her to paint her as some sort of elitist who bashes the downtrodden. When it was Bec versus Dan the media were all Bec Boosters, now as the more details emerge about some of those unfortunates involved in the crime it's become a media Bec Bashing time. All driven by a bunch of politically correct woke commentators.
The media are not held accountable for what they say or write, and not only is it damaging but potentially deadly for someone like Bec Judd, you just need one psycho to take on the media cause and next thing you've got another stalker to report about!

Bec didn't do herself any favours when she
complained on social media about red dust in her pool when bushfires were raging and lesser well off folk were losing everything.
It wasn't malicious but she just couldn't read the room or have awareness of others issues and the magnitude of despair they were suffering.
Bec needs a bit of education in how the other half live and why her home was targeted rather than a bashing in the media. I remember reading that Jerry Seinfeld bought an expensive flash mansion/property years ago that he bulldozed to the ground and was asked why and his reply was "because I can"....
Hopefully Bec never gets to that level and can learn a bit more about being humble and I reckon then her local crime problems might go away...

Exactamundo. Snobbery is never attractive.

We, collectively, create the society we all have to live in. Complaining snobs never really help in improving things.

What an absolute schemozzle is the Manly NRL pride jersey debacle.
