@joshi I imagine the Herald jump is due to an amazing subscription offer—I know I found it too cheap to resist!
English
@junethomas Ooh good question - do they have a local football team that’s been promoted..

These companies rely on programmatic ad revenue and they’re losing almost 50% of traffic on big sites. Big financial holes must be opening.

@AlexisWilkins @AmericanAir @THE40OUNCE This bot (no human would be allowed to communicate this way—at least not more than once) convinced me to steer clear of American some months ago. Thanks for the clarity, I guess?
English
@AmericanAir @THE40OUNCE This is maybe the wrong vibe for a response I think

lol so I don’t earn miles if I book basic economy now?? @AmericanAir interesting strategy.

What is a movie that "broke" you so hard you can only watch it once, but you would still recommend it to everyone?
English
AMAZING piece. Well worth the price of a subscription. This sort of BS will flourish without dedicated investigative outlets like @theglasgowbell

❓You’ve got empty offices and a tax bill of a million pounds. A charity with a cockney self-described millionaire director says it can help. What do you do next?

@daveweigel I guess it won’t be the case with this switcheroo, but Lordy Brits recall their currency a lot. Much of the time a change means that the pre-existing notes have a time limit. That Turner might not work in a few years.

It’s the least important issue on earth but I’d love it if we switched up the money with different Great Americans every decade. Jackson’s fine but I want to buy coffee with an Edgar Allan Poe $20
English
Too bad. I really liked the British practice of rotating different eminent people on their bank notes.
(“They took Churchill off” is getting the coverage but he’s the only politician on the money rn. Got a crisp Turner 20 in my foreign currency box.) politico.eu/article/uk-ban…

Loved chatting about Elvis, Reggie Dinkins, and the talking dead on this week’s @SlateCultFest: slate.com/podcasts/cultu…

(Genuinely) psyched to live in a world that also contains NMA-nominated Today in Tabs.

It’s true: After an eventful year writing Starting Point for @BostonGlobe, I’m heading back to @Slate to be a senior politics writer covering *gestures at all this.* I’m psyched to get started, so drop me a line at ian.philbrick@slate.com
Katie Rayford@katie_rayford
We're so excited @IanPrasad is joining Slate as our new politics writer. He wrote The Morning at the NYT, Starting Point at the Boston Globe, and once upon a time interned and freelanced right here. Welcome (back), Ian! Read more here: slate.com/slate-welcomes…

@katherineveritt I once edited a travel series about Japan … that began with this exact realization. (The writer was able to grt a visa the next day, fortunately.)
English
Guess who has two thumbs and didn’t know that Americans now need a visa for Brazil? 👎🏻👎🏼

@sheffcol Surely this is illegal!
mollie simpson@molssimp
in July, the @sheffieldtrib team revealed that Sheffield College was under investigation for exam fraud. now, the college is refusing to acknowledge our FOI requests, keeping us in the dark about information we have the right to ask for. do you plan to address this @sheffcol?

A couple of months ago my hubby, who’s bought a newspaper from this kiosk for decades, emailed a local newspaper to ask them to cover this story. Instead, they asked him to write it. He’s never written an article but gave it a go. Now the story’s everywhere. Quite proud of him

Yesterday, we went down to Brixton tube station for the last ever day of Brixton News, one of the capital's last specialist news stands. TfL are raising the rent on the unit Pritesh Patel and his brother run from £40,000 a year to £125,000 a year, something they cannot afford.

@helaineolen @NathanJRobinson @curaffairs Agree. Though I’m regularly surprised by a right-wing talking point in the middle of a WSJ review. I read a lot of the books I read about there, though!
English
@NathanJRobinson @curaffairs I urge everyone to also read the WSJ and FT book reviews. Not their own sections, but both quite good.
English
With the closure of the WaPo book review, "no one who has anything to do with books remains employed at the paper" and the (awful) NYT is the last newspaper book review.
Reminder: @curaffairs takes book reviews, and your subscriptions will help us build a books section!

@AmericanAir @Dslag26 Terrible reply to this situation lol. AA probably crashes on purpose to make people book for higher rates

Inbox: The @NewYorker is hiring Washington Post book critic Becca Rothfeld.

@TongueXCheek We're truly sorry that this was your experience. Protruding parts such as wheels, handles, pockets, handles, hooks or other attachments aren't covered. Here's more info connectaa.co/Damage.

So apparently @AmericanAir considers them BREAKING A WHEEL a part of normal wear and tear. It's been a week of me trying to follow their claim process only to get an automated reply that they denied my claim & in person staff say they can't help. AA how can I get my wheel fixed?
