I don't know who needs to hear this but you are important, you are loved, there is an opossum living in your attic which is why your socks keep going missing, you are valid & you matter.

RAAAAAAAIN

begging democrats to fight right now like portland is as important as jimmy kimmel

oh my god. first of all, that's not Katie Wilson's campaign, it's an unrelated group led by Black and brown Seattleites that supports progressive causes and candidates. Second, that isn't "darkening"—if anything, they could be accused of turning the knob on "Trump orange"

I NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT FOUNDATION AGHHHHHHH

thrilled it’s finally sweater-and-beanie season!!!

Seattle Mayor candidate Katie Wilson is at KOMO Plaza to tout her plan to help local journalists and fight back against censorship by right wing media conglomerate owners that has pushed some talk show hosts off the air.

New investigation: Auditors flagged dozens of payments to Lance Benson’s property management company as suspected fraud. But county leaders chose to go after the nonprofit aid distributor instead. www.cascadepbs.org/investigatio...

Nine Guild-represented journalists and their editors have also lost their livelihoods as a consequence of this decision. We are crowdfunding to support our affected colleagues, and you can help by donating to our layoff fund. tinyurl.com/LayoffFund

the guild is crowdfunding to help support the extremely talented journalists who have been impacted by this week’s layoffs announcement - please help them out if you can!

It’s difficult to find the words to express how our unit is feeling right now, but we’ll take a stab at it: shocked, disappointed, angry, gutted. @cascadepbs.bsky.social’s choice to eliminate long-form written reporting is a massive loss for our community in a critical moment. tinyurl.com/LayoffFund

My biggest concern about TikTok being sold to Trump-aligned American investors is that, at this point, there is far more cause for alarm from domestic surveillance than from foreign adversaries. www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

I’ll be talking about my reporting on government AI use on MuckRock’s FOIA Friday podcast this week, and on a panel at @ire.org AccessFest conference next month. This investigation wouldn’t have been possible without support from the editors + news team who Cascade PBS decided to lay off this week

The last story I edited before Monday's news was @laureldemkovich.bsky.social's excellent examination of Bob Ferguson's first 8 months as governor, a tenure marked by low public approval, decisions baffling to Dems and Republicans, and reduced press availability. www.cascadepbs.org/politics/202...

Nearly everyone had an expectation of who Bob Ferguson might be as Washington’s 24th governor. He’s become known for keeping his cards close to his chest, leaving lawmakers and voters surprised, confused and even disappointed. “It’s a curse of trying to be in the middle,” said pollster Stuart Elway.

Megan is an amazing editor! Hire her!

elvis voice : im so eepy i could die

remember when everyone would change their name on Twitter for spooky season? are we doing that here?

we don’t need a self-driving shuttle to light rail at SEA, we need moving walkways

Haven't looked at the 990s or anything but even IF there was a deficit....Katie and TRU have won more on that tiny budget and possible deficit for the people of Seattle and King County than Harrell has his entire, well-funded career.

If you are thinking of pulling support from KCTS over this, which I'm not encouraging, I ask you to consider KBTC for your PBS dollars. But regardless of what you do with your money, I *am* encouraging you to tell KCTS' well-paid leadership what you think: www.cascadepublicmedia.org/leadership/e...

“is anything you are mailing liquid or fragile?” “yes I have two quarts of Vermont maple syrup, the most precious liquid of them all”

I've struggled to put into words how I feel about Cascade PBS cutting its entire newsroom today. That newsroom (formerly Crosscut) gave me space to do the most in-depth, informative public policy journalism of my career -- work other journalists continued after I left. The region is now worse off.

Hey! Does anyone else remember when Mayor Harrell tried to completely cut Seattle Channel but then so many people got pissed about it he didn't? I do! Lots of Seattle conservatives are out here in progressive sheep's clothing, folks.

I’m absolutely gutted by this news and the loss of so many excellent colleagues and friends. This is a huge loss for independent journalism in the PNW 😞💔

My colleagues at Cascade PBS do essential accountability reporting. This is a huge loss for the community and devastating for local journalism

I'm touched by the little shout out in this piece. And am of course glad for the recognition it gives to my many wonderful colleagues who are also getting the axe. Thanks @ericacbarnett.bsky.social! publicola.com/2025/09/22/c...

A dark day for Northwest journalism: @cascadepbs.bsky.social is axing the @cascadepbsnewsroom.bsky.social, laying off 17 people, per internal memo obtained by @kuow.org. Cascade PBS got ~10% of its budget from Corp. for Public Broadcasting. Unclear why its whole newsroom had to be axed.

Any rich folks in Seattle have an extra $3.5 mil lying around and want to be a hero? This is your moment! www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

It's been a bad day! For now I'll just say I can't think of a worse time to have fewer reporters and editors on the job and that I'm very glad to have a union on our side.

I’m deeply disappointed to learn that Cascade PBS has chosen to eliminate its newsroom and lay off 17 union workers. As a former Crosscut columnist, I believe strongly in long-form, local journalism. Seattle needs a thriving local news ecosystem. #thisisyourcity

For independent news in the Seattle area: - @publicola.bsky.social, reader-supported independent media - @hannahkrieg.bsky.social’s independent news venture: The Burner - @thestranger.com for long form, magazine-y features - @theneedling.com for brutally funny satire headlines

The move, attributed to the loss of federal funding for public media, marks the layoffs of 17 staffers and the creation of three new positions.

BREAKING: Cascade PBS, which operates the website Crosscut, is laying off 19 people, reportedly including its entire news staff. In an email to staff, CEO Rob Dunlop blamed federal cuts, saying the nonprofit is "winding down our longform, written journalism."

It's the first day of fall, and Trump is celebrating by taxing YOUR morning cup of coffee by an average of almost 15%. Leaves might be falling, but thanks to this reckless trade war, coffee prices are rising. It's time Republicans join Democrats to END these idiotic tariffs.

LOL. Not Disney releasing a Star Wars trailer hoping that will appease the masses. They are desperate.

GOD fascism is boring

Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches
