Grateful for my 7th Lowell Thomas award from SATW Foundation Society of American Travel Writers. I enjoyed working with Gabe Hiatt & Washington Post Travel on this. I was excited about the story & even though a whale sinking a sailboat isn’t a traditional travel story, Gabe trusted me. Can’t ask for much more than that.

The Associated Press⁩ u quote Islamic Jihad supporting Hamas that it was Israel that hit the hospital, but u omit that the US President and US intelligence agree it was a Jihad rocket. U ignore Biden in favor or an Iranian-funded terror group?? Accuracy matters. apnews.com/article/d9606e…

It's an ugly fucking world we live in. Do you really believe this is because these folks care for Palestinian lives? This was the best use of their time to help the Palestinian cause?

This completely broke my heart. Family members of the Israeli hostages assembled close to the border with Gaza and - using powerful loudspeakers - called out to their loved ones. #BringThemHomeNow 🎗️

My mother came to the US in the early 50s, after having been a refugee across Europe who narrowly avoided the Nazi death camps. She was a passionate Zionist, and upon seeing the racism that existed in the Jim Crow era, she quickly became a card-carrying NAACP member and began

That Natasha Frost is still employed by the The New York Times is proof of a double standard at the paper. Apparently egregious ethics violations that would be illegal in some countries are OK with the Times when it’s Jews who are in put in peril. Amy Virshup
