I'm an investigative reporter for a TV news station and nothing has radicalized me more than the nonstop emails from so many people with flagrant delusional disorders. You are not being gangstalked you do not need the help of an investigative journalist you need a doctor and Risperdal

Gomez Escalante has heart issues and told his wife he was experiencing severe symptoms while in ICE custody; he hasn't been heard from since Monday when he was taken to a medical facility.

Please change your music. It is the same as our smart phone ring. Very annoying thinking my phone is ringing only to find
 out it's KDKA news.

Journalism is a public service and I would be willing to accept paychecks commensurate with those of other public servants such as for example cops

He says he did it by hand himself with tiles his neighbor gave him for free, and then forgot it was there. Personally I've done tile projects and I remember every single agonizing second on the floor, but that's just me!

A swastika was discovered inside a couple's new home. They're suing, saying it should have been disclosed. After buying a home in Beaver County, a couple says they were appalled when they found a swastika permanently tiled into the basement floor.

Oh I did this story in August! I was surprised by the number of people who do seem to believe the prior homeowner's justification that he's really into Buddhism. www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/n...

I love when I read a Chotiner interview and I can hear the whistling noises as his statements sail over the head of his subject.

Like the sound of an incoming mortar shell.

so yeah, I was near the front and saw the whole thing unfold. the federal officers opened their garage door, about a dozen marched out, and they started throwing gas and launching flash bangs, etc. not even time for provocation. there was no easy escape, so ppl had to walk thru the gas to get away.

Amid allegations of cover-up, House Judiciary Committee members seek access to full Epstein case files The U.S. House Judiciary Committee's inquiry said the panel has questions about why the Department of Justice released only half of the estimated pages of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

ALERT: US House Judiciary Cmte Democrats seek β€œimmediate arrangements” to view full Epstein files

They cite widespread redactions and withholdings by Justice Dept, saying Trump Admin is β€œstrangely” saying it’s complied with law

I keep thinking of all the times I've covered protests and stepped off the sidewalk or run ahead of the march or gone somewhere "unapproved" to get a shot, and all the times I HAVEN'T been arrested.

The arrests of Lemon and Fort are meant to have a chilling effect on journalists.
