The most-read story on the WaPo website was written by a team Bezos' leadership just sent to the unemployment line.

It’s also poorly written.

Donald Trump didn’t embarrass his black GOP allies — this is what they signed up for. A racist post from a president who rose from a racist conspiracy theory and has a history of racist rhetoric

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

A non-journalist friend asked me — is losing 300 people from a newsroom a lot?

I pointed out there are about 200 journalists at the Philadelphia Inquirer and about 100 at the Baltimore Banner. Imagine losing both those publications in a day.
