I wrote about Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry's takeover of the state's already fragile public defense system. So far, it's led to cuts to capital defense, salary reductions, and a new payment scheme that incentivizes lawyers to lose New @boltsmag: boltsmag.org/jeff-landry-lo…

In Mississippi, prisoners are charged almost $30 for an 8-inch fan. In Delaware, an 8-inch fan at one prison costs almost $40. In Kansas, it would take an incarcerated person, who can earn as little as $0.45/day, 100+ days to afford an 8-inch fan. theappeal.org/locked-in-pric…
One woman miscarried in the bathroom of a Texas emergency room lobby after the ER refused to admit her. There's a spike in complaints about pregnant people being turned away from ERs as strict abortion bans take effect in many states. From @AP #lalege apnews.com/article/pregna…

1 — Kentrell Parker is among the most frail inmates in Louisiana’s prison system. As a quadriplegic, he is confined to the medical ward at Angola prison, where the health care was ruled by a federal judge to be “abhorrent cruel and unusual punishment.” shorturl.at/cdpPS
With veto-proof majorities in both legislative chambers and the backing of a new governor, some Louisiana Republicans are taking aim at public libraries with legislation that could criminalize librarians. #lalege #lagov lailluminator.com/2024/03/29/ult…

The Tortured Journalists Department: -Election Night -My Editor Only Cuts His Favorite Lines -Who’s Afraid of My Little Old FOIA request? -I Can Do It With a Broken Dataset -I Can Make This Deadline (No Really I Can) -I Hate It Here -I Look in Public Records -The Google Doc
lol at this being a reply to a story written by me, The Media
Moms with daughters, you guys have the thing where you see yourself in a mirror and suddenly realize after years of hating the way you look you’re actually really pretty because you can see your daughters face in your own?? 😭🫠
Journalists be like “my oldest enemy” and it’s literally just a deadline
my take on academic vs non academic writing is that most of us who write for a public audience also went to grad school and know how to do research and personally I would prefer not to be talked down to like some kind of hapless idiot because I didn’t decide to stay there forever
in my experience, having a handful of journalists at a party is good because they can talk to anybody and often have funny stories, but you have to keep it below 50% or it will quickly turn into kvetching about the copy desk
How many times can I expense Hot Cheetos from work trips before my editor worries about my mental state
I would say today is the worst day in journalism but the actual worst day in journalism is like the 3738 days a year when a massive publication goes bankrupt due to rich owners’ mismanagement and like 10 people whose work you love suddenly don’t have jobs
some of you need to quietly admit to yourselves you’re not actually built for NYT connections
one thing I wish more people knew about journalism is how much time and care goes into getting things right. it's not unusual to spend 10 mins on the phone with an editor going back and forth on how one word changes the meaning of a sentence! and i kind of love that
Oh no. The age where find out what you’re wearing is out of style from NPR
Stunning the number of reader exchanges I’ve had that go exactly like this
I ran AP's Pulitzer-winning investigative team in Washington for more than a decade and now teach investigative reporting at University of Florida. I have some thoughts on complaints from LSU coach Kim Mulkey about upcoming Washington Post story. (Thread) apnews.com/article/lsu-ki…
Any debate over the pronunciation of "Tangipahoa Parish" should be settled by hearing folks from there say its name. First-term state Rep. Kim Coates (R-Ponchatoula) on the House floor: "Tan-ji-pa-ho." I've also heard @LouisianaGov, of Amite, pronounce it as such. #lalege #lagov
I think this is media literacy 101 but I guess I must reiterate that reporters don't write editorials, those are separate from the news section.
#BREAKING: The Marshall Project is officially unionized. Our leadership voluntarily recognized the Marshall Project guild, and now we'll bargain with them over working conditions. Do you work in media? Do you want to unionize? Get in touch. We love to talk shop.
INCREDIBLE NEWS: We have made an agreement with the leadership of @MarshallProj and we are officially a union! We are so excited to begin working toward our first contract.
We stand behind our reporting.
Correction: @IlluminatorLA ran a story yesterday that wildly mischaracterizes many aspects of our election integrity legislative package. The piece engages in irresponsible hyperbole without providing any evidence to support its claims.
One thing I didn't expect about parenthood is how stressed I would get when a beloved toy goes missing. Just spent 45mins looking for a plastic snake (Benny), calling Trader Joe's to see if we left it, rummaging the car. Anyway found Benny behind a bookshelf, thank GOD he's safe.
