20 years ago, I talked about how journalism in the digital age would be all about individual voices with direct, trustworthy relationships with their readers, listeners, and viewers. So many institutional outlets didn't believe it. Nobody saw me as a "journalist," just a "blogger." 20 years later, it's ok to say this: I was right.

Great work by @csedachab and @Vaquero2XL on this story. @LatNewsletter might be a small nonprofit newsroom, but our Puerto Rico work has been stellar and people are noticing. Seguimos.

April Fools posts no longer work in the age of AI and disinformation. Not a grumpy take. I think the joke peaked back in 2013.

@EdHand89 am always hopeful about the team but it's just been bad baseball by them and it's just been a bad stretch

It no longer surprises me when the self-proclaimed best fans in sports collectively crash out four games into a 162-game season.

We need nonprofit funders to examine this Pew data much more closely. The U.S.-born news consumption by Latinos is overwhelmingly in English, and I think that funders have overlooked that fact for years. The more we can look at Latinos across all these sectors, the better we will serve our community as journalists.
