I’m sorry to the folks in my mentions. I should have been clearer in my original post. I don’t actually want to know who any of these people are either. πŸ˜‚

Ooops. I missed HR McMaster. So, I know one of them!

Yeah I missed him originally. That’s the only one though.

It’s like someone presented me with a list of the top transportation reporters in Delaware.

This isn’t a bit. I’ve never even heard of one of them.

I, a very online journalist, don’t know who any of these people are.

Clarification/modification/correctio n here: Newsroom folks now saying impending cuts will be very large-up to 300 people-and will fall most heavily on sports and foreign staff.
But cuts *will* include non-
newsroom (ie., business) personnel, too. So pain all around.

Still terrible news, but a clarification from Farhi:

Tweet from Paul Farhi:

Per former colleagues at the @washingtonpost: In a Zoom meeting today, Post foreign staff was told by editors that up to *half* the Post's newsroom will be cut imminently. Biggest cuts to foreign and sports staff.
Sickening.

A bloodbath at The Washington Post. What a terrible day for journalism.

No joke. My buddy @joshuasharpe.bsky.social literally solved an Unsolved Mysteries cold case, and I’m so bummed that Robert Stack isn’t around to give him a shoutout.

They should bring back How It's Made but only feature manufacturing facilities in gross violation of safety regulations.

There were at least three moments where the OSHA inspector inside of me expected someone to lose a finger.

I know a lot of people are sharing this, but this isn't likely. Oke GΓΆttlich is only 1 of 10 executive committee members. And for his day job, he's the president of FC St. Pauli. If you aren't familiar with their game, imagine if Fugazi was a soccer club. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FC_St._...

There's a moment where the wah wah pedal the guitarist in the band is playing bleeds into Wilson and it sounds like heaven.
