“If I can get seconds, thirds and fourths on that raw milk now? Ooh boy!”

Bryce Harper on the birth of his fourth child, a boy, last week: "I've got an incredible wife, man. She pushed that thing out in three pushes and 30 seconds. She's an absolute monster doing it. Women, man, what a breed.
I'm serious, it's an incredible thing."

Bari Weiss's first message to CBS staff as Editor-in-Chief, shared with me:

"…I stand for the same core journalistic values that have defined this profession since the beginning, and I will continue to champion them alongside you…"

Office of the Editor-in-Chief, CBS News

..
Dear Colleagues:
I am thrilled and humbled to be writing to you as the new editor-in-chief of CBS News.
Growing up, CBS was a deep family tradition. Whenever I hear that tick, tick, tick or that trumpet fanfare, it sends me right back to our den in Pittsburgh. The opportunity to build on that legacy with you-and to renew it in an era that so desperately needs it is an extraordinary
privileg

Right now, I imagine you have some questions. I do, too.
My goal in the coming days and weeks is to get to know you. I want to hear from you about what's working, what isn't, and your thoughts on how we can make CBS News the most trusted news organization in America and the world. I'll approach it the way any reporter would-with an open mind, a fresh notebook, and an urgent deadline.
What I can tell you on day one is that I stand for the same core journalistic values that have defined this profession since the beginning, and I will continue to champion them alongside you:

1. Journalism that reports on the world as it actually is.
2. Journalism that is fair, fearless, and factual.
3. Journalism that respects our audience enough to tell the truth plainly-wherever it leads.
4. Journalism that makes sense of a noisy, confusing world.
5. Journalism that explains things clearly, without pretension or jargon.
6. Journalism that holds both American political parties to equal scrutiny.
7. Journalism that embraces a wide spectrum of views and voices so that the audience can contend with the best arguments on all sides of a debate.
8. Journalism that rushes toward

8. Journalism that rushes toward the most interesting and important stories, regardless of their unpopularity.
9. Journalism that uses all of the tools of the digital era.
10. Journalism that understands that the best way to serve America is to endeavor to present the public with the facts, first and foremost.
I look forward to meeting many of you in the days ahead and to listening and learning from you. I am profoundly honored to join you-and I can't wait to get started.
With gratitude and excitement,
Bari

Every day, in cities across this country, brave ICE agents and a bunch of random other guys in tactical Under Armour dri-fit gear mask up and do the "dizzy bat race" version of the border shootout scene from Sicario. This is the only way to ensure the safety of the homeland.

Not only does this story get a number of basic facts wrong, it doesn’t take time to actually explore why Portlanders elected these folks. Coming in with a pre-baked PDX story to fit a NYT narrative about NYC is harmful, especially at this moment.
