The PBS News team, including our foreign affairs and defense team, will not be signing the Defense Department's new press policy. It is a direct violation of our duties as journalists to cover this administration and the Department without fear or favor. 1/2

"My biggest fear is that no one will remember him," Bill McGinly told me a decade after losing his son Mark in the Sept. 11 attacks. For him, each day, it all comes back. patch.com/virginia/vienn…

BREAKING here - U.S. team in quake zone told they are fired, per source. The 3-person disaster assessment team sent to Myanmar for the U.S. received termination notices while staying/sleeping outside — US AID workers were told on an all hands call today, per a source familiar.

Bill McGinly lost his son Mark in the 9/11 attacks. "My biggest fear is that no one will remember him," he told me a decade later. His hope in sharing Mark's story was that he wouldn't forgotten. patch.com/virginia/vienn…

I've been to the Tidal Basin a million times over the years, but I'd never seen the water this high. It really feels like a glimpse of the future. npr.org/2024/03/19/123…

@maustermuhle It's also been painful to see the homepage devoid of (or sparsely populated with) local coverage.

I've been listening to the first hour of Morning Edition on @wamu885... and there's absolutely no local news, much like yesterday. It's a disservice to the listening public in the Washington region, and they have the right to know what happened to their "local" NPR station.

So @wamu885 has a Community Council, which is supposed to represent the listening public. I would love for its members to ask station leadership exactly how they plan to richly cover the D.C. region with far fewer reporters. And then press them on it.

I am at an absolute loss of words for what I fear might happen to @wamu885 and @dcist, two places that defined so much of my career in local journalism and which I grew to love. I’m sending all the support I can to all my former colleagues there, who are the best in the business.

Ominous email sent to WAMU staff this afternoon about a “new strategic framework” to be announced Friday morning. Their offices will be closed to have the "time and space" to have these convos-- WAMU won't publish anything online, and they're automating starting 8pm.

I’ll never forget the day a potential @19thnews donor heard my toddler cry in the background on a zoom call and said “sounds like you’ve got more important things to be doing right now than launching a startup.” (He never cut a check.)

🧵: Discrimination against moms is an "open secret" in many workplaces. Workers are still being laid off while on leave, pushed out of jobs or subjected to comments like, “You probably have your hands full at home." There is little legal recourse. 19thnews.org/2023/04/workpl…

It's Layoffs Week @NPR. How NOT to make it worse on those affected. A thread: 1) Do NOT reTweet or repeat unconfirmed reports and unsourced reports with names of people laid-off; 2) Give these journalists the respect and dignity they deserve. Let them announce if/when they want;
