Tip of the hat to the great @dllewis7 aka David L. Lewis , @WNYC’s outgoing investigations editor who has helped make the station the best radio news show in town and whose shelf full of awards includes names like DuPont, Polk etc. How they’ll cope without him is a mystery.


Greatest journalism of our age: The relentless work by In the Dark, a podcast, in overturning an historic wrong and freeing a man from death row. With a panoramic view of history, grain by grain scrutiny of forgotten records, they halted a railroad with 400 years of momentum.

Curtis Flowers was allowed to remove his ankle monitor Friday afternoon after the Mississippi Attorney General’s Office dropped all charges against him. Read the story: apmreports.org/episode/2020/0…

See something. Now do something.

So many people have reached out to ask me how to help the families in a story I wrote about siblings caring for siblings because their parents have died of Covid-19. Two of the people I wrote about are juggling work and college. Here’s where you can help monetarily.

Jennifer Lawrence sold her 4,000 square foot Manhattan penthouse for $9.9 million to Lebanese banker Marwan Kheireddine, chairman of AM Bank and a former government minister. Here's a thread of documents on the sale variety.com/2020/dirt/ente…



Hamill, in context, during a very short chapter of his life as editor of the Daily News. Hear it from @tommy_robb

When Pete Hamill Was the Editor of the New York Daily News newyorker.com/news/news-desk…



Pete Hamill told New York's story for 60 years. His voice rang loudest & truest when the city was in trouble in the 1970s, like the patriots in Casablanca drowning out the Nazis with La Marseillaise. The goodness of his generous heart never ran low. Thanks for all of it. RIP.
