*Some personal news* After a few months embedded on our National desk, I'm pleased to say that I've taken on a new beat full-time -- exploring how Wall Street and the business world are dealing with social and cultural issues for @business @bbgequality

(2/2) Why not just publish daily shows at, say, 8pm ET? They're already filmed hours in advance... Shows wld be more relevant, more likely to draw prime demo viewers, who could watch whatever their bedtimes? Is it $? Logistics? (Never covered media- plz forgive my ignorance!)

Genuine question! (1/2): Why haven’t streamers aggressively gone after the late night market? (For all political persuasions.) Whenever I have watched a late show it’s always been the next day on YouTube, because I’m old now and should be asleep by the “live” airing...

The union representing the musicians from Jimmy Kimmel’s band releases a statement calling the FCC’s pressure on Disney “state censorship.”

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R): "I think we need more moral clarity right now. I hear all the time that words are violence. Words are not violence; violence is violence. And there is one person responsible for what happened here. And that person is now in custody."

@Katie_Roof Congratulations!! Though we’ll miss you over here @business

Update on my end…I’ve been poached! I’m excited to join The Information as Deputy Bureau Chief of the venture capital section, where I’ll be reporting and also mentoring young reporters. I’ve also offered to move back to SF because it makes the most sense for the role

@gardnerakayla Congrats, Akayla! We'll miss you!

When I first started covering the White House, the first cable news network to invite me on was MSNBC. Almost three years later, I’m starting a new chapter of my career alongside the same people who took a chance on me then. Same reporting. New home. See you there.

The Department of Justice takes an expansive view of what constitutes illegal DEI... Among their targets: - Scholarships for ppl of a certain race (maybe also: gender, religion, etc.) - Diverse recruiting slates - Diversity statements More: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

tl;dr: Today, the erosion of the graduate employment premium appears to be an especially acute concern for men. But policymakers would be wise to consider the implications of this pattern playing out more broadly. My article in full: ft.com/content/a9eadb…

Does sponsoring a recruiting and networking event for Black professionals count as "DEI"? If a @NABAInc convention earlier this month for finance + accounting was any indication, some companies say "yes"... @DelanoSquires at Heritage disagreed. Read: bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

💔 Our hearts are broken. Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky — two young Israeli embassy staffers and cherished members of the AJC community — were murdered while leaving an AJC event in Washington, D.C., last night. They were stolen from us. They had their entire lives ahead of them. Sarah, an American from Overland Park, Kansas, was warm and compassionate, committed to peacebuilding, and passionate about sustainability and people-to-people relations. Yaron always had a smile on his face and a welcoming presence. He had reportedly bought a ring and was planning to ask Sarah to marry him in Jerusalem next week. Words cannot adequately express our sorrow. We mourn with Sarah and Yaron’s families, their friends, and all who loved them. May their memories be a blessing.

Today, I tendered my resignation from the University of Austin's board of advisers in light of the events described in the account below. quillette.com/2025/05/16/is-…
