As a person with a complicated relationship to weed, I found this @leddder deep-dive into the myth and foggy future of California cannabis' "holy grail" strain to be FASCINATING sfgate.com/cannabis/artic…

My last big story on Fernet included a very curious note in it: one of America's top Fernet-drinking bars wasn't in SF at all — it was in LA. This is that bar's story, courtesy of @KarenLPalmer. via @SFGate sfgate.com/la/article/dra…

In a day of.... bad, please let this small story of superfans delight you. sfgate.com/la/article/hil…

I don't know a single person at @StarTribune. I have never been to Minneapolis. I live in Los Angeles. But I cannot look away from this brave reporting, across the newsroom. I just subscribed to the paper, and I hope you do, too. They deserve it. startribune.com/subscribe

A month ago, co-author Kim Hyatt was writing about lakeside home sales and the mayor of a town of less than 2,000 people. startribune.com/author/kim-hya… Now, Hyatt is doing vital work on a jarring topic unfolding in real time — while the world watches from home. That's nuts!

In the face of so much horror, I want to commend everyone at @StarTribune. Look at this story, breaking down the various types of crowd control munitions being used on protestors, and their health consequences: startribune.com/federal-agents…

@DanielNMiller @latimes You're a legend.

Personal news: after 13 years, this is my last day at the @latimes. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to tell the stories of the city alongside such a committed and thoughtful newsroom. I’m also very excited about my next chapter and will have more to say about it soon.

@joelrubin @politico @DanielNMiller huge!

Jerry Buss built an empire but feared infighting among his children would tear it apart. He was right. "I don’t think my dad would be happy with the way things just went down,” said one. "Not at all.” How family dysfunction & discord fueled the $10B sale: espn.com/nba/story/_/id…

This might be the best quote I've ever gotten, manager at an Eagles bar in Philly talking about 49ers fans pranking the crap out of his bar. Good game day read if you're looking for one: sfgate.com/49ers/article/…

Just unreal, sad, vital reporting from colleagues.

Wow -- breaking news indeed. @latimes sports legend @dylanohernandez is departing the paper for the California Post, the incoming publication from the NY Post folks...

For Cal-Stanford Big Game week I tracked down the anonymous Oski and Stanford Tree who got into a nationally televised brawl on @espn 30yrs ago that needed police intervention. The untold story involves 18 beers, suspensions & lots of blood. For @SFGate: sfgate.com/collegesports/…

We're far from alone. Shoutout to every journo doing work in this place, from NYT/LAT to LA Taco, LA Public Press and the new scene of startup Substacks (In The Valley, Eastside Rag, etc.) going hyper-local. LA has always been a storytelling town. Let's keep using our voices.

So glad to be able to chat with @NiemanLab about what we're up to with @SFGate in Los Angeles. I'm proud to run a local newsroom, staffed by real Angelenos who live here and care. niemanlab.org/2025/11/more-o…

Or one of my favorite stories in a minute, a cultural excavation of the San Fernando Valley — why it's been unfairly loathed for so long, and how current forces are conspiring to make the place (gasp!) cool. sfgate.com/la/article/why…
