We spent over a year reporting about Hasidic schools. We want people in the Hasidic community to be able to read the story. So we translated it into a Hasidic dialect of Yiddish. It may be the first time the NYT has ever published an article in Yiddish: nytimes.com/yi/2022/09/11/…

@johnemcintyre ps: To add to your list, maybe we take a cue from the terminology now used to describe homelessness. We say "this person is experiencing non-life."

When it comes, as it must to us all, a little word will do.

@johnemcintyre Thank you! Amazing (irritating) how reluctant people are to say "die." A journalist, whom I don't know personally, called me a year ago for help with a project. The hang-up: She couldn't bring herself to say or write "die." She felt it was harsh and offensive, etc.

@CharlesPPierce I remember that lecture: If A equals B, then an assault-gun ban must equal puppy McMuffins.

I took Logic in college for nothing. 8 in the damn morning in Milwaukee in February.

Lauren Boebert says if the assault weapons ban is passed, people in America will start eating their dogs because that’s what happened in Venezuela.

@RichDalMonte @BlackPressMedia Hey Richard. I don't know what this refers to. Can you remind me?

#pronunciation story:
The brilliant and awesome @JacquiB is leading a @BlackPressMedia staff #journalism seminar. She's reading from various papers and pronounces Coquitlam as "ko-keet-lam."
I correct her pronunciation and she responds: "How literal of you."

If the 2,300-plus texts that Mark Meadows "selectively" provided and they say what they appear to say, you have to wonder what he isn't sharing. cnn.com/2022/04/25/pol…

Now Susan Meyers and "Everywhere Babies" is under attack in Florida. Apparently because one illustration shows two men gazing in love at a baby. washingtonpost.com/parenting/2022…

Would love to see you on magical Madeline. I owe you a response to your messages. Miss you, and thrilled by the work you're doing.

Yes, yes, I’d second your recommendation highly. I went to the workshop three years ago. Learned so much from @JacquiB. Learned so much from fellow participants I miss the deep blue desert sky and the gigantic cactuses I’d love to go to the workshop on Madeline Island one day.

I get a lot of newsletters delivered to my inbox.
The two that I always open (both come on Friday):
1) @JacquiB 's @niemanstory newsletter; and
2) @austinkleon 's newsletter.
Personable and usually uplifting - in that both writing true stories & consuming art are good for me.

@bittelmethis @neimanstory Totally my pleasure. I am now notching all the snarge on my cabin windows. So Much Snarge.

@JacquiB Hi, Jacque. Reed Anfinson sent me Chip Scanlan's article on Tim Sullivan. Reed is a member of the International Society of Weekly Newspaper Editors; I am the executive director. Could I have permission to reprint the article in the February ISWNE newsletter? Thank you.

@chadstebbins Hey Chad. Chip keeps rights to his posts so reuse is up to him. You can, of course, link. If you repost in entirety, what we ask is that you include a line at top saying it was previously published in Nieman Storyboard, and include a link if you publish online. Jacqui

Sometimes it's better to just go for it. Consider doing that and joining us at a writing workshop Tanque Verde Ranch, at the edge of Saguaro National Park, next week. A couple of slots left in a small but energetic gathering. madelineartschool.com/product/crafti…

We mostly learned and wrote outdoors last week, under the sun and stars of the Sonoran Desert. Nothing like it. A few seats left for next week's redux. Give yourself a last-minute gift and join us. madelineartschool.com/product/crafti…
