Breaking: @wamu885 has made access to all published DCist stories available to the public for at least one year as it seeks a long-term home for the archive. The archives are available at DCist.com Story: wamu.org/story/24/02/28…
Thank you!
Got mad thinking about this, but @DCist didn’t even get a proper send off. Had there have been a conversation with staff, we could have actually made content to commemorate it’s time, bring in old editors to talk about its eras, but they didn’t respect that platform
Abbey is a social video whiz who helped make DCist's Instagram so great! She's also incredibly efficient and organized. Hire her and put her talents to good use!

As our partnerships editor, Eric kept so many trains running seamlessly that contributed to making our coverage more compassionate. Also I don't think I've met a kinder or more generous coworker.

Jacob is the GOAT when it comes to audio storytelling. If you need someone to make your audio stories sing, (or to follow a panda truck down the Dulles Toll Road) he's your guy.

Héctor's layoff is a huge loss for local news coverage in the DC region, especially in an election year. He was almost always finding a story no one else was doing. And he was up for anything, which is a great quality in a reporter. Hire him!

The care and doggedness Jenny brought to our criminal justice coverage is the standard against which modern local crime reporting should be measured. She made me proud to be part of WAMU.

Chris and I go back to the beginning of WAMU putting its news online, when we were 2 of a team of 3 charged with putting everything from the radio onto the website. There's no sharper analytics guru. Hire him!

I’ve been laid off from my job covering criminal justice at @wamu885/ @DCist. Thank you to all of the DMV residents who trusted me with your stories. It was an honor and I felt like I was just getting started. Please support my colleagues at @WeMakeWAMU
I can think of nothing more poetic than the final story being published on @DCist being one that @JacobFenston begrudgingly wrote about pandas. Love to all my colleagues. DCist forever.

We @DCist had the privilege of profiling @NoochieMusic and went behind the scenes of his Live From the Front Porch series. “I’m where I’m at right now because of family, music, and street shit," he explains. 📸 by @deedwyerjonts | edits by @Coop_Rebecca: dcist.com/story/23/09/29…

3K Followers 1K Following Father, husband, son, food policy advocate and Chef/Owner Poca Madre and Taco Bamba https://t.co/2qoceKhnhYIt happened. After the 6am newscast, I said, "for more news from us, visit DCist...," and then quickly corrected myself. Gone but never forgotten, DCist. You're always on my mind.
I was back on air @wamu885 today (surprise again!) My story on DC statehood was on NPR’s @MorningEdition. My dad texted from Ca. to ask what sui generis meant. npr.org/2024/02/29/123…
I just can’t imagine how WAMU’s food and arts coverage—leadership’s stated priorities—will run without her expertise and care. Support her:
I was also laid off today from WAMU and DCist. The past two years were my second stint at both, and presented me with my dream job of editing local arts and food stories that tried to portray the real culture of D.C. I'll miss that work and my colleagues terribly.
Recognizing some of our fave #foodie & industry writers who've contributed to the #DCist - Adam Bailey, Alicia Mazzara, @amanduhgomez, @Coop_Rebecca, @fultonhere, Jamie Liu, @lladkins, @LoriMcCue, @MelissaMcCart, @michaelmugmon, @scottreitz, @travisjmitchell & @VictoriaFinkle.
We should have been the ones to break this news, not Axios who didn’t reach out to any fellow journalist for input and still got some of the framing wrong
Got mad thinking about this, but @DCist didn’t even get a proper send off. Had there have been a conversation with staff, we could have actually made content to commemorate it’s time, bring in old editors to talk about its eras, but they didn’t respect that platform
@Coop_Rebecca Sorry to hear this Rebecca. I was so excited when I heard you were back and that you were covering local arts. You are a rockstar and I pray you land in a better place.
@Coop_Rebecca They will be bereft without you, no idea who they think is going to edit arts and culture coverage now. I am so sorry
@Coop_Rebecca Noooooooo! You succeeded in that mission, despite all of the hurdles that management threw in your way. May you have a relaxing weekend (hope you caught your flight!) and then please get in touch
Rebecca is the best of the best. Full stop. 💔
I was also laid off today from WAMU and DCist. The past two years were my second stint at both, and presented me with my dream job of editing local arts and food stories that tried to portray the real culture of D.C. I'll miss that work and my colleagues terribly.
shutting down dcist is a befuddling and frustrating move that leaves a huge hole in local media. the excellent @WeMakeWAMU + staff deserve better. won't ever forget how @Coop_Rebecca contacted me after my own layoff from @wcp and set me up with my first freelance gig at dcist.
After over 2 1/2 years, my time at Just Women’s Sports has come to an end. Through many twists and turns, I’ll forever be proud of the editorial product we built, the audience we served and the difference we made in women’s sports. It was a fun and wild ride. (1/3)

DCist/WAMU will continue to cover Moon Rabbit. Thanks to @JacobFenston & @Coop_Rebecca who covered this while I was away celebrating my mom’s birthday Aside: Take your approved time off if you can! Even if you feel guilty about it, reporters! Your newsroom can likely handle it
.@DCist/@wamu885 does not have a food reporter, so I'm trying to round out our coverage. We know readers and listeners crave food coverage. My interest is in labor and health of people, so approaching the beat in that way. So pitch me and my editor @Coop_Rebecca!
