    Yep. The old rip and run. But you cannibalize each other while circling the drain😡

    This isn’t about me getting credit. This is about how reporters (and other local newspapers across the US) work really hard to find and deliver exclusive news that people can’t get anywhere else. It's how we convince the community we are worth their time, money.

    At least four alleged journalistic sources were prosecuted by the Trump administration in 2018, compared to one in 2017. I wrote about the uptick in leak investigations, and other press freedom violation trends we saw at this year

    In her Senior Sit Down interview, Simon dives into the hard lessons she’s learned, the triumphs she’s experienced, and why the over-arching message of “greater is coming” has summed up her journey to this point. If you thought you knew her before, think again.

    Exellent examples of WHY journalists & investagative reporters have been named the "Guardians" & work hard to bring us the "War on Truth." If not for them....corruption would go unnoticed. Now, if we could just get the Courts on board.

    Aura👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Thank you for being that who listens and cares and does the work. We need you. And hundreds more✊🏾✊🏾

    It takes me back to my endless point: with some exception, the majority of reporters at English-language papers only ever speak to people who cross in soundbites. This is the problem of diversity, entitlement, and power that journalists of color are always talking about.
