@spoggioli1@NPR I have enjoyed your professionalism and your amazing reporting. Thank you for bringing the world alive! I, too, am retiring this year. May we both find the next phase as challenging as the last! Arrivederci!
@irbybandman I’m sorry to hear that but I completely understand! I’m retiring this year after 25 years! I always thought I’d die doing this job but the lack of respect made me realize it’s time to move on. I’ll miss the kids but that’s about it. Good luck!
@Marina_Sirtis I’m sorry all this is happening. There are plenty of people like me that enjoy your work. Hang in there! I too will probably leave this platform and that might not be a bad thing!😀
@alanalda I just watched the pilot episode this evening. Brought back memories of watching MASH with my father. I still use some of your Scientific Frontiers with my biology students. Thank you!

Everything I know about news-cycles, talk shows, social media, & politics tells me the film was instead a documentary
