Thrilled to welcome back Jon Allsop and introduce the new slate of CJR newsletters

It’s not just Semafor that needs to rethink its fossil-fuel advertising: @billspindle argues for a broader news-industry shift cjr.org/first_person/m…

Here we go again: The The New York Times by my count has nine opinion pieces out today about the Trump run for president.

Since we launched this project a week ago, nearly 150,000 people have gone to areyoupressworthy.com to calculate how much coverage they'd get it they went missing. More here in CJR cjr.org/analysis/how-m…

Once again, the political press called it wrong, a mirror image of 2016. At what point do newsrooms recognize that they need need to rethink their approach?

I’m worth 6 articles - how many are you?

The name Gabby Petito is trending right now. If you went missing, would yours? This tool from CJR aims to answer that question and challenge journalists to examine our own biases and 'malpractice' in covering missing person cases: areyoupressworthy.com

This is a really incredible and thought-provoking project from CJR areyoupressworthy.com

What a great interactive -- one that's impactful and maddening at the same time. Kudos to CJR for doing this.

Two decades after 'missing white woman syndrome' was coined, the imbalances in coverage remain.

I asked Ben Smith to speak with me about the misleading Chevron ad atop Semafor's new climate newsletter.

He declined, directed me to a spokesperson, and the spokesperson ignored me.

Is this what trustworthy journalism looks like?

A few highlights of John Bennet's rules for writing:

'Cut the blah-blah.'

'Remember the banana rule: it’s never 'the elongated yellow fruit.''

'A piece with a nut graf is like a documentary with a voice-over—it means you haven’t got it all on film.'
