We agree with NPR CEO John Lansing, who said going silent on Twitter allows the network to “protect its credibility and its ability to produce journalism without ‘a shadow of negativity.’” So, as NPR noted, we’ll see you everywhere else you get your news.

And if you’re sticking around on Twitter, here’s a list of our LAist staff. twitter.com/i/lists/159808…
