The The Wall Street Journal will leave no man left behind. Today marks 100 days since Evan Gershkovich was wrongfully detained by Russia and accused of espionage. He did nothing wrong. We continue to demand his immediate release. #IStandWithEvan #FreeEvan #JournalismIsNotACrime

Unfortunately, this piece I reported years ago for @npr (longer version on NPRCodeSwitch) is “evergreen” as we say in journalism. It’s about the use of dehumanizing language: npr.org/2018/06/28/624…
