City Desk reporter Cat Sposato looks at the struggle for data transparency in D.C Jail’s use of solitary confinement. DOC declined to release crucial information requested by @CCE_for_DC, complicating reform efforts. buff.ly/49YseTJ

This is a big mistake and a loss for DC not to have him in our community.
Upsetting, infuriating, heartbreaking. Yet another DC resident denied #parole, despite excellent grid scores and a recommendation for release. “The barriers [to parole] are increasing. It’s time for DC to take this back,” said @WashLaw4CR’s Stacey Litner. buff.ly/3IqouOw
Wouldn’t it be nice if @jennygathright was still working at @wamu885 to do this kind of reporting?
There’s a LOT of info floating around right now about the new DC Crime Bill. It can be overwhelming, to say the least 😵💫 @jennygathright & @TamikaNews do an excellent job breaking it down and addressing people’s most common questions in this explainer. buff.ly/3SRPmf3
If you would like to share what DCist means to you, or talk about how a certain story impacted your community, drop 1A a voice memo for Monday's show👇
On Monday @1a is going to be talking about the decline of local news across the country and what it means for our democracy. We'd love to hear what you think! How important is local news to you? Email me a voice memo: [email protected] or call us at 855-236-1212.
The issue with accessing DCist’s extensive archives absolutely has to be addressed. You know how much history is covered there? And all the links to those stories are now being redirected. It’s not just not ideal, it’s an actual disservice to the public.
The demise of DCist and contracting of WAMU is a disservice for readers, listeners, policymakers and the entire D/M/V. Ex: @margaretbarthel’s data center coverage has been essential public policy reporting. Now, we can’t even access *archived* stories, let alone expect new ones.
The loss of the @DCist is immeasurable. It comes on the heels of the @washingtonpost reducing local editorials. This is a bad direction. DC is a home town, not just a federal town and local coverage shining light on local issues matters. Someone said “Democracy Dies in Darkness”
