There's a new paper out tomorrow at Atlantic New & @kingsbookstore.bsky.social! On the front a story by @katynotie.bsky.social about a bank robbery, police reform and how things are the same 100 years later. On the back @landofsticks.bsky.social has a story about land use that got the note below

I am going to have to update my bio because after June 20th, thanks to the two greatest words in the English language, I will be an award-winning journalist.

Happy to share that the Grand Parade podcast has been nominated for an Atlantic Journalism Award in the podcast category. And it is the only nominee, so... congrats to host @landofsticks.bsky.social?

What the paper I write for and pays me said!

Happy belated World Press Freedom Day! Even though we need our press to be free, journalism itself isn't free to make. Journalists tend to want things like "wages" just so that they can "eat food" and "pay rent." Please consider becoming a paid subscriber of www.grandparade.news today!

New paper out tomorrow! On the front the last from our intern about fire. Are there more of them these days? Is it your imagination? On the back, @landofsticks.bsky.social has a story about @lecwhite.bsky.social trying to make walking safer. And one about budget season. Which is back. Already.

I have returned from my unwilling hiatus. And in style! Jenna McConnell is a great person to write with, especially in this year of shared bylines. Here’s a picture of what our story is about.

No fancy preview cards on Ghost, but there is a new paper out tomorrow @kingsbookstore.bsky.social, Atlantic News and at www.grandparade.news On the front @antonihfx.bsky.social and the Intern bring you a story about a deadly bus stop. On the back @landofsticks.bsky.social has a Transit update

So just an update here it looks like Ghost's podcast integration is an additional cost and one that will run the paper about $490 USD a year based on listenership. So until I find a cheaper workaround or get a rash of new subscriptions, the early access to the podcast will be MIA for a bit.

The migration to Ghost should now be complete. The last step was some subscription backend stuff which on our end appears to have gone off without a hitch. But if you start having any issues with your subscription, please reach out! The new podcast RSS feed will come Soon™

Is there a new paper out tomorrow? Yes, a physical paper will definetly be in Atlantic News or the @kingsbookstore.bsky.social Will an issue be in your inbox? About 99% sure on that one. Will there be a post on www.grandparade.news? Maybe! Switching to Ghost is going great, thanks for asking!

The website is currently switching platforms and will be offline for a bit until the computers do the magic.

Monday's show is out early for subscribers

It is a profound irony when the nation under attack feels more empathy for the attacker's citizens than the attacking government itself.

Hey, just a heads up, we are (finally) moving off of Substack, due to its nazi problem, its crazy high fees, its sex crime problem, and its 'let's not push out emails to people who aren't on the app' thing. Subscribers should not notice the change, except for some extra emails in the next week.
