@mviser Going to miss seeing you in the Post newsroom, but can't wait to see what you do in your new one.

I got my start in journalism in Boston, reading The Atlantic, dreaming of becoming a magazine writer, and walking by the magazine’s 19th century home: the Old Corner Bookstore. I couldn’t be more thrilled to now join The Atlantic, starting an exciting new journalism chapter.

@jasminewsun @harmancipants @kevinroose AI can certainly help with fact checking, but I personally haven't found it to be reliable on its own. It will miss many errors humans would catch.

the scoop Max missed is that I used to be one of the humans helping @kevinroose with his AI book, until he automated my job away with a team of Claudes

@dcsportsbog Kinda maybe? Danielle is a veteran baseball writer from the Banner who shifted to cover Mont County in October. Now she has a byline in the Post Sports but she hasn't mentioned one thing about it on her socials. That... doesn't seem like a traditional set up for coverage? 🤔🤔

WaPo seems to be covering the Nats again washingtonpost.com/sports/2026/03…

@mattadler81 And all the people wearing pink?

What's going on down at the Tidal Basin? It seems like there are a lot more people there than usual this week. Did I miss something?

DC is wild about cherry blossoms.

@BizFailures @LeeHepner Doesn't PACER charge far more than the cost?

No. PACER should NOT be free. It's fee for service by those who actually use it. Nothing wrong with its fee structure. Taxpayers should not bear the burden of other's usage. Yes, authenticator is a headache. Also, save your downloads so you don't have to use it over and over again.

PACER's new authentication app requirement is the latest barrier to public court access. I'm now 74th in line to talk to a PACER customer service rep because I can't log in to manage my authenticator app without an authenticator app to log in with. Make PACER free. Damnit.

@susieneilson @sfchronicle @SABEW Congrats. Glad to see the @sfchronicle consistently produce great investigative reporting.

Our @sfchronicle reporting on insurance companies' systematic underpayment of wildfire victims won a @SABEW award! Thank you so much to the judges for the honor + your incredibly kind comments. sabew.org/2026/03/2025-b…

@WA_TigerGirl @RealestMercury @SeanParnellASW @DeptofWar @SecWar The judge was appointed in 1994, long before Obama or Biden were elected president.

@RealestMercury @SeanParnellASW @DeptofWar @SecWar It wasn’t SCOTUS who made this ruling. Likely one of Obama’s or Biden’s leftist, radical judges.

On March 20, 2026, a U.S. District Court judge vacated key security provisions of the Pentagon's October 2025 media access policy. The court removed every provision that allowed the Department to screen press credential holders for security risks and every provision that allowed the Department to deny, revoke, or suspend a press credential based on security considerations — while simultaneously ordering the Department to immediately reinstate press credentials for the New York Times. The Department always complies with court orders but disagrees with the decision and is pursuing an appeal. In the interim, and in compliance with the court's order, I have signed the revised "Pentagon Reservation In-Brief for Media Members," effective immediately. Here is what the revised policy does: Closure of Correspondents' Corridor. In assessing the Department's security posture following the court's removal of all security screening authority, the Department determined that unescorted access to the Pentagon cannot be responsibly maintained without the ability to screen credential holders for security risks. Effective immediately, the Correspondents' Corridor is closed. A new and improved press workspace will be established in an annex facility outside the Pentagon, but still on Pentagon grounds, and will be available when ready. Escorted Access Only. All journalist access to the Pentagon will require escort by authorized Department personnel. Credential holders will continue to have access to the Pentagon for scheduled press briefings, press conferences, and interviews arranged through public affairs offices. The Department remains committed to transparency and to working with credentialed journalists who cover the Department and the U.S. military. The Department is equally committed to the security of the Pentagon and the protection of the men and women who work there. The revised policy reflects both commitments.

@cestpatrickjr @AlanRMacLeod And...

@AlanRMacLeod Imagine other versions of this headline: “How a single mother of 3 survives off of $40,000 a year in Flatbush.”

This is who The New York Times is for. If that's not you, you shouldn't be reading it.

@cestpatrickjr @AlanRMacLeod There are other versions already.

@ceodonovan @sfstandard Congrats Caroline!

Exciting job news! I'm hella stoked to be part of what the @sfstandard is building, to help strengthen the local news ecosystem, and to have a broader remit to cover this baffling era of Silicon Valley!

@maxwelltani Occasionally, story drafts accidentally get published before they are finished and ready to run. Someone likely hit the wrong button in the content management system.

One of the most bizarre stories I've seen in a while. THR published this writeup full of typos, errors, and fragments. Some appear to now be fixed but the original version from Apple News is wild... hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…

"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 ⤵️

@mattdrange That is quite a review.

Kudos to Julie Dressner and Miriam Shor, directors of a new documentary called "My NDA," for pulling off the hard way. Document -based stories tend to be dense, and can leave the viewer feeling detached. But their film is visceral, full of tension + risk. hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-f…

@beckyyerak @ZuckLawFirm Love this.

Walked by the clearly labeled @ZuckLawFirm #bankruptcy practice last Saturday in Indianapolis while attending #NICAR26. He addresses the name on his website :)

@discoque92 There already is an official definition of the DC metro area from the Census. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_…

In my opinion, these are the counties that would be considered "The DMV" DC Prince George's Charles Montgomery Arlington Alexandria (city) Fairfax Loudon That's it.

@MasonJettericks @SpecialPuppy1 Editors of local and regional papers rarely finish work at 5 pm, in my experience. The news doesn't stop on evenings and weekends.

@SpecialPuppy1 He probably makes a decent salary for his cost of living and gets to go home at 5 pm every night

I was wondering why this guy disappeared from politics Twitter. Voluntarily going from NBC political reporter to editor of a regional newspaper covering a population of roughly 150k people seems like a wild career move, but if it makes you and your loved ones happy, go for it.

@isaiah_bb Here is a Snopes link. snopes.com/news/2026/01/2…

@isaiah_bb Snopes also looked into it.

Do you guys remember when CBS News ran a story, as if it was hard-reported news, about two federal government "officials" who told them the guy who shot Renee Good suffered internal bleeding? And then there was never any follow up or other reporting because it was made up?
