NYT Goes Silent on Greta Thunberg’s Gaza Voyage (fair.org)

No fawning coverage of Thunberg’s activism from the Times this time. No Hollywood big shot saying that he hoped her trip would “spark a movement.”

For anyone interested here's the link to track the Madleen, the boat she's on.

They made a course correction yesterday to help a sos ship, and today the tracking stopped after they resumed course.

The link at the bottom of the page is at least still live and updating every 10 minutes with some kind of data.

Thank you!

The original Madleen tracker is back up too

Looks like tracking was stopped and then resumed but map on that the page isn't using the updated link?
