Today was a sad day in Seattle journalism. As someone who read and followed Cascade PBS's work every day (for my job), they produced unique and compelling work week in and week out. This will be a big loss...

I arguably jumpstarted my career because of Twitter but deleted my account a few months ago (I do have a burner account to monitor but never tweet). I have not regretted deleting my Twitter for a second

Boo Alaska forever for getting rid of TVs on planes

Dang, that's crazy. Anyway, we moved our annual refugee resettlement fundraiser to Bluesky this spring, after running it entirely on Twitter for over a decade, started with ZERO followers, took our "shrunken" audiences and beat last year's total by $200,000 in a time of massive economic upheaval

We truly live in a cursed timeline

Me, a game show fan: Does this mean Kimmel will no longer host Who Wants to be a Millionaire

can’t emphasize enough how funny the video is

I should note Nexstar - Which had called for Kimmel to be preempted - is seeking a merger with TEGNA, which includes KING5 in Seattle.

Nexstar "is seeking FCC approval for its $6.2 billion mega deal to acquire TEGNA, a deal that would make Nexstar by far the largest owner of local TV stations in the country. The FCC would have to raise the 40% ownership cap in order to let the deal advance..."

Daily Bruin Alumni Network is having a DB reunion on Oct. 11! I unfortunately can't go but it's a great way to meet with the current DB students, get to know more about the newsroom and UCLA and also to reunite with all the alums. Would love to have you there! -> giving.ucla.edu/Standard/Net...

I watched a movie about the fall of democracy in Hungary in lieu of watching the UCLA game and that was probably more of an uplifting experience

Jesus christ UCLA

way too many outlets reporting "Hey fascist! Catch!" without the "Up arrow, right arrow, 3 down arrows" part that was all the same inscription because its a very specific video game reference to Helldivers 2 all we know about Tyler Robinson right now is he is terminally online

internet culture desks aren't just for cute meme trend stories. ever since gamergate, understanding how and why info moves online is critical to seeing how we got *here*

Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson has also issued a similar order but also saying he's doing so "in memory of all victims of political violence," including two Minnesota lawmakers assassinated in June.

Second time @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social gave a shout-out to a work of a writer I know: www.nytimes.com/athletic/660... (First one was this lol: www.latimes.com/entertainmen...)

Information environment has reached its grotesque conclusion in that there is a very real killer out there who has not been identified, apprehended, or investigated, a detail practically inconsequential to nearly every commentator’s purposes.

As someone who has had love-hate relationship with college football (And yes, I wrote about it: www.latimes.com/california/s...), Holly's piece deeply resonated me. And as she says, "we’re just gonna have to make this place habitable."

There aren't many stories that prompt gasps at our editors' daily budget meeting. But this was one.

🚨Border Patrol arrested two firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire at the time. When the other members of the crew asked for a chance to say goodbye, a Border Patrol agent told the crew member “you need to get the f*ck out of here. I’m going to make you leave.”

things you don't ever expect to see in print "It is unusual for federal border agents to make arrests during the fighting of an active fire, especially in a remote area." www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Federal agents showed up northeast of Lake Cushman to check identification of crew members fighting Washington's largest active wildfire.

Every story quoting Trump saying this is to "rescue our nation’s capital from crime" needs to note that violent crime in D.C. is down 26%, murders are down 12%, juvenile arrests are down 20%, and ask who will get hurt from a domestic military deployment and what this "crackdown" is really about

What the hell

“Since AFP was founded in August 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, we have had wounded and prisoners in our ranks, but none of us remembers seeing our colleagues die of starvation.” The AFP news release has been released in French. Below is an English translation via Google translate.

It's been... a year, but I'm thrilled to say I'll be (and speaking + moderating!) at the #AAJA25 convention in Seattle! Feel free to hit me up on DM, etc. if you wanna chat!

I’m here in MacArthur Park in Los Angeles, where military style vehicles have pulled up down Wilshire and Alvarado, amid rumors of an ICE raid in the park have proliferated since last night
