was telling someone last week that i don’t see myself as a journalist, but as someone who works in journalism, and i think that’s an important distinction.

The publisher keeps saying covering certain types of stories—e.g., covering the Black community in Atlanta—will look like “taking a stance.” He doesn’t seem to understand that deliberately not covering those stories IS, in fact, taking a stance.

Spent a week on Maui covering the deadly Lahaina fire. Spent a day with family on O'ahu, and a few hours with family on Maui. Pained to see the people of my home state, my 'ohana, in aguish. Story with my The Associated Press 'ohana, Jae C. Hong Mike Householder. apnews.com/article/ohana-…

And we’ve seen this happen elsewhere, right? Hurricane Katrina immediately comes to mind. Someone I once interviewed called them “disaster investors/speculators.”

I was laid off by The Texas Tribune yesterday after more than 10 years there — most spent centering communities of color in my reporting.

This is my last story, which was set to run before I was called in. This is the kind of reporting I was doing: texastribune.org/2023/08/24/kar…

Instead, a parting thought: People over the years have asked whether I felt “pigeonholed” by doing race coverage as a Black journalist. I want to be emphatically clear that I consider it the greatest honor to do this work. In fact, we need more, not less, reporters doing this.

Here’s the lesson that those who would choose to abuse their power should take from the Marion, Kansas, newspaper raid: You’ll regret it. kansascity.com/opinion/articl…

The front page of the Marion County Record today documented a rare episode in American history and let readers know that their small-town weekly newspaper is not going anywhere.

“SEIZED ... but not silenced,” the paper in central Kansas announced. kansascity.com/news/state/kan…
