I am a huge fan of the concept of public media, but federal funding has been a cudgel used to bash NPR. This has made them scared of Republican critics, which in my opinion, diminished the quality of NPR. This new environment might get them to take the gloves off.
Today marks the first day in public media’s history without federal funding. And we’re not going anywhere.

My latest in my fight against the Washington Post.
I’ve filed a grievance against the Post through the WaPo Guild— and have sent a letter to Washington Post challenging my firing.
Proud to have @normeisen.bsky.social + @katiephang.bsky.social in my corner.

The Washington Post Accused Me of “Gross Misconduct.” Here's My Response.
This fight isn’t just about my job — it’s about who gets punished for telling the truth, and who gets protected for spreading hate and violence.

This makes me so mad. Los Doyers could do better.
“The Dodgers boast that more than 40% of their fan base is Latino, but they can’t even be bothered to offer the shaken community any words of comfort.”
The Dodgers’s silence about ICE in LA — and Dave Roberts’ feigned ignorance about what’s going on — is an absolutely horsehit look for the franchise of Jackie Robinson and Fernando Valenzuela www.latimes.com/sports/dodge...

L.A. is a Mexican-American city. The majority of the population is made up of racial and ethnic minorities. We are all happy living together and really do not want to see our friends, neighbors and families being terrorized by federal robo-cops. This is bullshit.
