It was the biggest massacre for decades - 10,000 Sudanese killed over two days. The international community knew genocide was inevitable. Why and how did it happen? Huge thanks to @Sihanet @ikhlassahmed77 @nattyray11 @KholoodKhair theguardian.com/global-develop…

Imagine being a bright-eyed J-School grad eager to launch your reporting career, and the editor of Cleveland's metro daily puts you on blast for wanting to be a journalist instead of an AI content farmer. cleveland.com/news/2026/02/j…

I have been laid off today from the @washingtonpost, along with most of the International staff and so many other wonderful colleagues. I’m heartbroken for our newsroom and especially for the peerless journalists who served the Post internationally — editors and correspondents who have been my friends and collaborators for almost 12 years. It’s been an honor to work with them. I launched the WorldView column in January 2017 to help readers better understand the world and America’s place in it and I’m grateful for the half a million loyal subscribers who tuned into the column several times a week over the years.

The Washington Post laid off its entire award-winning photo staff. Every photographer, fired. The WaPo photo staff has won 5 Pulitzers, including as recently as 2019. With a newsroom that still has 300 journalists, how do you produce a daily report with…no photographers? —>

A late-spring frost cut Turkey’s expected apricot output from 750,000 tons to 10,000 this year. Many other crops were damaged, deepening pressure on global and domestic food prices, which were already rising at a record rate in Turkey. @MouterW reports: turkeyrecap.com/p/cost-of-cold…
