I couldn’t stop thinking about @CivilWarMovie, so I wrote about it from the perspective of teaching young journalists for @LAmag. lamag.com/opinion/opinio…

@JeffESchapiro @realDonaldTrump Bravo, Jeff. Thanks for all the memories and laughs and keeping the press corps aggressive.

@nielslesniewski @rollcall Aw thanks for reading!

Now here's an Election Day surprise. Is that a @cbellantoni byline in @rollcall? Why yes, yes it is. rollcall.com/2024/11/05/fro…

Okay this is the most exciting SNL cameo of the night for me.

My @USCAnnenberg students covered a Trump event with Black faith leaders in Detroit and wrote this story. washingtontimes.com/news/2024/sep/…

Got the alert, but no shaking at all in Burbank.

Wake up LA!

Is there a good 2-5 minute video out there summarizing our insane summer in politics I can show my class today after this slide? Thanks in advance!

With Southwest ending its open seating, I’m thinking about one of my favorite columns I ever wrote the last day of the 2008 McCain/Obama race: cc @HariSevugan @tuckerbounds @jrpsaki @AlexConant huffpost.com/entry/somethin…

This video of Obama and Biden watching the Hamilton performance 7 years ago has so much more meaning at this precise moment in history. cc @Lin_Manuel youtu.be/uV4UpCq2azs?si…

1 hr 32 minutes. A new acceptance speech record. Congratulations if you made it all the way through. You are a part of history.

Nice to hear Vance be first person at RNC to pronounce Kamala Harris’ first name correctly.

Congrats @murraymatt!

@boyleheightsbt @JessicaPerezLA2 Hooray!

Full circle moment for @JessicaPerezLA2! She started as a volunteer mentor when Boyle Heights Beat launched in 2010 and then became deputy editor. Perez returns to serve as Senior Editor of Boyle Heights Beat, managing all editorial staff. boyleheightsbeat.com/jessica-perez-…

@GingerGibson I have so many Alice stories like this. She was really kind.

I always remembered that night. You can be kind and friendly and set the politics aside. And hilarious. And she drank the 20-something under the table.

Just devastated by the news about Alice Stewart. One of the most kind and straight forward people in politics. In 2012, I was covering Mitt Romney’s campaign and was in Little Rock at the then Peabody hotel. I went to the lobby to get dinner and she saw me and to sit down.
