"Nearly five years." Investigative journalism takes years and years. The investment is immense, and always worth it, and, in the era of "hot takes" and ephemeral "content," rigorously reported journalistic work is needed more than ever. We must keep supporting investigative journalism. From @mannyNYT, lead reporter of the blockbuster piece on Cesar Chavez ⤵️

The frustrating thing is, a quick phone call is often so much quicker and provides so much more clarity than some drawn out email exchange where everyone is trying to say exactly the right thing.
John Lomax V@Thelastlomax

Thinking about a time when reporters could pick up the phone, call someone and actually get answers. Now it's "pls send us an email - we will reply in eight weeks" or "contact our contracted media team, who is not on-site and knows nothing about the subject at hand"

With the Berger-Page recount looming, I made a list of all the people who might have a role in the post-election process (from the local board of elections to the N.C. Supreme Court) and also have connections to Berger. It's a long list: wunc.org/politics/2026-… #ncpol #ncga

Granted, since the world's gone to shit I've lowered my expectations for contentment but drinking a glass of wine at a bar and watching the Bob Ross channel is somehow ... blissful?
