👀 Watch how this works: As soon as we discuss Chinese censorship live on @CNN, China censors our broadcast feed to the entire country. They put up color bars reading "no signal please stand by." When that discussion with @ValerioCNN wraps, @CNNTheStoryIs is back on air.

.@GavinNewsom's book dives deep on the challenges for his single mother & details her assisted suicide while battling cancer. I ask him about talking about such personal issues in front of book tour crowds across the country? How has the experience changed him? "It's been pretty extraordinary, particularly talking about single moms...that come up to me after I talk and talk about their own experiences with their mom or the moms themselves, and it's very emotional, particularly with mothers that show me their kids. They could be 40 or 50 years old, they could be 5 or 6 years old, and literally tearing up, and it's it's a wonderful and cathartic thing to talk about people as people."
