I built a dashboard to explore the last 25+ years of @nytimes coverage. 1.5B words, 2.2M articles, 26K reporters. It's fascinating to look at the world’s preeminent news organization not as daily stories but as patterns of attention, ebbing and flowing. tedalcorn.github.io/nyt/

Alas, I got that “Eliminated” email from the @washingtonpost. I LOVED that job. I firmly believe that telling delicious, curious, surprising stories is key to the success of journalism. I plan to keep doing so! (You can now hire me, if you agree) #SaveThePost

I was among the many sports reporters laid off by The Washington Post today. Feeling a lot of gratitude for my time working for this paper. Not looking back. Looking ahead to what’s next!

I thought I was a hard worker — until I met Jesse. I thought I cared about every word of every story I wrote — until I met Jesse. You might think being married to someone who does the same job you did, just better, would be tough. But it's the best. The Post is worse without him.

@dougherty_jesse Rooting for you, my friend, no matter where you go or what's next.

Well, turns out this was my last story for The Washington Post, 2,011 bylines later. For nine years, it was a dream in every sense of the word, no matter how many of the company's leaders tried to make it otherwise. Thanks for being part of the ride.
