The Post was foolish enough to unleash a bevy of the world’s most talented multi-disciplinary journalists out there for their competition to scoop up. These are some of the most hard working and skilled people I know.
Save this one and reshare it please! 📊
So many incredible journalists got laid off today. Heroes, mentors, friends. Just an absolutely devastating day. Starting a thread here with some of their incredible work, and how to follow and support them.

A table of YouGov polling data with the headline: "How your reading habits compare to other Americans." The chart has the sub-headline: "About how many books have you read or listened to so far in 2025? (% of U.S. adult citizens)."
NEW: How many books did you read this year? If it was more than 2, congrats: you read more than the median American.

EXCLUSIVE: @laurenweberhp.bsky.social & I have spent the last year collecting school+county-level vaccination data from across the US and found that only about 28% of counties now have herd immunity for kindergartners from measles—that leaves about 5.2mn kids unprotected.

2025 was an election “off-year”, but there were many consequential races. For those of us working elections it was hardly a year off!

A line chart showing the federal funds rate enacted during each meeting of the Federal Open Market committee since the start of 2024. The three meetings where there were dissenting votes by Fed governors are shown with the rate that the dissenters voted in favor of.
The Fed’s decision today to enact a quarter-point rate cut was not unanimous. Stephen Miran, Trump’s latest appointee to the board, cast a dissenting vote in favor of a bigger cut (half-point)

Data revisions are a normal, necessary part of trying to measure a $30 trillion economy in real time. They can also be jarring, especially for people who don't obsessively scrutinize every jobs report.
So I dug into the how and why of revisions. A few big takeaways:
#EconSky
A bar chart showing the combined revisions to job growth for months of May and June, by sector
last friday, job gains from May+June were revised down by a total of ~258,000. the downward revisions hit virtually every sector, but jobs in state+local government were revised down the most

Claudia Sahm's substack is where I read about education sector. She shows seasonal adjustment (SA) as problem with May initial release and data collection problem in June, particularly education. So, more complicated than I had thought. More than just SA. stayathomemacro.substack.com/p/job-growth...
