CHARLOTTE (QUEEN CITY NEWS) – NCSU supply chain expert Julie Swann breaks down the latest impacts from the storm and port strikes on the domestic supply chain.
PHILADELPHIA -- Dockworkers are continuing their port strike Wednesday, essentially shutting down operations ports across the U.S. They are vowing to stay on the picket line 24/7, until a deal is reached.
Cambridge, MA, Oct. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new paper, “Differences in misinformation sharing can lead to politically asymmetric sanctions,” published today in Nature suggests that the higher quantity of social media policy enforcement (such as account suspensions) for conservative users could be explained by the higher quantity of misinformation shared by those conservative users — and so does not constitute evidence of inherent biases in the policies from social media companies or in the definition of what constitutes misinformation.

Americans woke up on October 1 with news that a major strike among U.S. Dockworkers could lead to supply and goods shortages. Many of us are still reeling from the shortages and hoarding that took place during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, but this time, it's not toilet paper and hand sanitizer that look to be sparse. Because the strike affects shipping ports, it's mainly imported items that may become hard to come by and are, therefore, worth seeking out sooner rather than later.
