K3 Holdings and Alpine LA Properties Congratulate Team USA for Winning Paris Olympics Medal Count

K3 Holdings

K3 Holdings, a privately held real estate investment firm with extensive holdings throughout the United States and Alpine LA Properties, a leasing company providing newly remodeled apartments at affordable rates in Los Angeles, congratulated Team USA for their outstanding performance in the Paris Olympics. Following more than two weeks of competition and lifetimes of preparation, athletes representing the United States won 126 medals (40 gold) leading all other countries at the conclusion of the games in Paris. "Congratulations to Team USA for showcasing the true spirit of excellence and determination, bringing home the most medals and making us all proud,” stated Michael Kadisha, a Principal of K3 Holdings. "Winning the most medals is a triumph of skill and perseverance, and more so, a testament to the unity and resilience that define the American spirit. Dedication, hard work, and a never-give-up attitude leads to greatness, and we are all inspired by the performance of our athletes in Paris.” "In sports, as in life, the way we handle victory says as much about us as the victory itself. Gratitude and humility elevate every achievement. Winning with grace and losing with dignity are the hallmarks of true champions,” Michael Kadisha continued. “The K3 Holdings and Alpine teams were impressed at how Team USA proved themselves to be real winners by celebrating their victories while honoring their opponents with respect and gratitude.” The Olympics serve as a unique platform where nations from every corner of the globe come together in a spirit of friendly competition. Beyond the medals and records, the Olympics foster an environment where cultural exchange and mutual understanding thrive. In a world often divided by differences, the Olympics create a space where adversaries can engage in dialogue, learn from one another, and find common ground through shared values of sportsmanship and respect. "The Olympics is a powerful testament to how people from diverse cultures and backgrounds can come together to achieve greatness," stated Nathan Kadisha, a K3 Principal. "The actions of Olympic athletes in Paris show us that dedication, perseverance, and mutual respect transcend borders and ideologies. These are the values that can truly unite us and drive real change beyond the games." “We are excited that Los Angeles will be hosting the Olympics four years from now,” Michael Kadisha said. “By watching athletes from rival nations compete with honor and integrity, in our own community, we will once again be reminded that even in competition, there is room for cooperation, empathy, and the possibility of resolving conflicts peacefully.” ### For more information or to schedule an interview with a K3 spokesperson, please contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or dan@danrene.com Contact Details K3 Holdings/Alpine LA Properties Dan Rene +1 202-329-8357 dan@danrene.com Company Website https://k3holdings.com/

Open Letter Demands ‘Newsroom Reset’, Pushes for Adoption of Pro-Democracy Election Coverage Guidelines

Media and Democracy Project

Today, the Media and Democracy Project (MAD), along with 3,258 individuals, sent an open letter to executives, publishers, and union leaders of major media organizations urging them to adopt pro-democracy election coverage guidelines ( PDF ) that center fact-based reporting, push back against election lies, and uplift voting. MAD’s proposed guidelines respectfully request newsrooms switch their focus from polls and drama to candidates’ policies, past-governance, and behavior. “It’s time that newsrooms start to cover elections like they matter more than sports scores,” said Brian Hansbury, cofounder of MAD. “Our democratic institutions are under attack and it’s incumbent on newsrooms to recalibrate their political coverage to adopt and adhere to practices that are pro-truth, pro-voting, and pro-democracy.” MAD’s guidelines contain 18 recommendations organized into three categories—a focus on substantive issues coverage, extensive reporting on threats to democracy, and protecting Americans against the spread of disinformation. The guidelines provide specific actions reporters and editors can take to ensure practices that help voters make informed decisions at the ballot box. They include: Prioritize substantive coverage of the issues that matter to voters' lives; Make headlines accurate and informative, not clickbait; Stop making predictions and pushing polls at the expense of issue coverage; Celebrate and uplift election workers, voters, and the election process; Don’t set aside moral judgment when covering obvious lies and bigotry; Hold politicians to account for their positions, statements, and behavior, as well as those of their party’s leader; Expose candidates who foment political violence. The open letter emphasizes how crucial it is for voters to understand what’s at stake in November and the damaging impact that election lies have already had on our democracy. For instance, lies about the 2020 election have caused a spike in death threats for election officials and poll workers, making it difficult to recruit and retain them. Half of all female state legislators are considering leaving public office due to increased intimidation. Meanwhile, Trump allies are preparing plans like Project 2025, which would harm millions of Americans and cripple our democratic system. With 3,258 signatures and counting, the letter includes signatories such as Ruth Ben-Ghiat, NYU Professor of History and author of Strongmen: Mussolini to the Present and the Lucid newsletter, who stated, "It's never been more important for news organizations to analyze the threats to U.S. democracy in clear and precise terms. Americans deserve to know the scale and nature of the challenges we face this November and beyond." The rights and freedoms that Americans cherish are at risk. As an essential pillar of democracy, journalists and the news media have a moral responsibility to inform Americans about anti-democratic extremist movements. Another signatory, Mark Jacob, former Chicago Tribune editor and author of the Stop the Presses newsletter, said, “The news media know it's their job to warn people when a hurricane is bearing down on them. But when a fascist assault on our democracy is bearing down on them, the media sometimes think it would be biased to warn people about it. That has to change before it's too late.” It’s more important than ever for journalists, editors, and their publishers to step up and put the public before profit, democracy before tyranny, and truth before lies. "Democracy is at stake–and as the open letter so powerfully demands, we need our news media to step up and be responsible,” said Norm Ornstein, political scientist and Senior Fellow Emeritus at the American Enterprise Institute. To learn more about this effort advocating for pro-democracy election coverage, and see who else signed the open letter visit MAD’s website. The Media and Democracy Project: MAD is a non-partisan, all-volunteer, grassroots organization focused on strengthening a free and independent media in the public interest. MAD aims to improve our national discourse so that American voters can engage in informed decision-making. As part of that goal, MAD has an interest in the responsibility of journalists and media to report fully, accurately, and fairly on the electoral process and the outcome of elections.

WagerWire

Wire Industries, Inc., a technology and media company that owns and operates sports betting marketplace WagerWire, fantasy sports marketplace FantasyWire, and media division Wire Media Group (WMG), announced today it has hit a significant milestone in the growth of Wire Media Group. WMG content has been viewed over 250M times in the last year and has been featured in the New York Post, USA Today, Bleacher Report, ESPN, Bloomberg and CNBC, among others, collectively reaching 50M+ sports fans with its own content in the first half of 2024. The Wire Media Group has rapidly risen in popularity, fueled by a community of sports fans and bettors enjoying viral stories of life-changing bets trading on the WagerWire marketplace, daily sports and betting news and analysis, and pop culture. “The Wire” is a content collective of top-tier creators and networks as well as original in-house content, with partners including Betr Media, Pro League Network (PLN), The Hammer Betting Network, East Coast Sports Investors, WalterPicks, and Brad Evan’s The Gaming Juice. The WMG content technology team, led by Allan Valle, has built and trained an A.I. content aggregation and amplification system to rapidly clip and syndicate partner content across mediums and channels. The cutting-edge system analyzes trends and cross-targets audiences, breaking partner networks and creators out of their algorithmic silos, resulting in increased discoverability. In addition to engaging content, WagerWire’s popular betting free tools including their Bet Value Calculator and Bet Graphs amass thousands of hits a day. “We create content by fans, for fans and The Wire Media Group was engineered to have something to offer to everyone,” said Travis Geiger, Co-founder and Chief Experience Officer of Wire Industries, Inc. “It’s weird to us that companies who literally profit off their player’s losses are out there giving picks and advice – and worst of all, paying lip service to the idea of responsibility while laughing out loud about degeneracy. People are smart enough to see through the shill. The Wire doesn’t have a hidden agenda. We answer to our community and no one else and we have the freedom to be creative and honest in all we do. What we offer is different, and we’re pleased at the positive response we’ve received to date.” The Wire Media Group also operates the company's affiliate marketing division, The Sports Influencers, which has seen tremendous growth in the first half of 2024. The program has seen 378% growth since the start of the year, growing 40% month-over-month, and has affiliate deals with FanDuel, Caesars, BetMGM, and Betr, to name a few. The Sports Influencers are operating in 23 states, Washington DC, Ontario and Puerto Rico. WagerWire recently won the EGR Rising Star of the Year award and was shortlisted for Rising Star of the Year and Affiliate of the Year at SBC North America, as well as Best X Presence at the Hashtag Sports Awards. WagerWire was also named to Business Insider’s list of 25 promising sports startups to watch, according to VC’s and other top investors. FantasyWire was shortlisted as Innovation of the Year by the Fantasy Sports and Gaming Association (FSGA). WagerWire burst onto the scene in 2022 with the announcement of a high-profile seed round led by Miami Marlins co-owner Roger Ehrenberg and including Betr/Simplebet Founder Joey Levy’s 305 Ventures, NBA All-Star Richard Jefferson, famed ‘Big Short’ investor Danny Moses, sports executive David Meltzer, and more.
