I'll be at #NAHJ40 this Friday and Saturday! Quien mas va? Looking forward to saying hola to old and new friends :-D

One of the most startling parts of this important reporting by Cassandra Jaramillo Sophie Chou Jeremy Kohler Caroline Chen

A must-read: Sarah Karp on how inequities in Chicago public schools start with a high-stakes test for 4-yr-olds that a lot of parents don't know about. CPS roadblocked data, but Sarah persisted. 📢There's a tool to look up your school: tinyurl.com/4xpmaxtj WBEZ

So proud of this award from @nahj for reporting by maryam مريم jameel and I last year on the death of a child on a WI dairy farm. It means a lot to be recognized by an org that supported me early in my career. Also - SO fucking cool to be surrounded by talented brown journalists here.

They told us it wasn't a story. They threatened to sue us. Now, 3 years after @bauerjournalism's @blockclubchi investigations revealed a COVID scandal at Loretto Hospital, an executive has been charged w/ defrauding the poor hospital out of $15 million. blockclubchicago.org/2024/07/12/lor…

Incredible reporting here

Tonight is the five-year anniversary of this child’s death. His father messaged me the other day, almost sobbing, saying he didn’t know how he would ever get past this. That it feels like it just happened yesterday.

He was the son of a liberal Johns Hopkins medical professor. He went to top schools, got a master's in urban planning, became a lawyer in NY. And somewhere along the way, his politics shifted dramatically. The story of the mystery man behind Project 2025: propublica.org/article/projec…

Looking forward to the day we have a contract, so all of us on both sides - workers and management - only have to focus on one thing: doing our jobs and producing the amazing journalism @ProPublica that we're all so proud to be a part of

I had the benefit of having reported on stillbirths for so long. I learned a lot in that process about how to talk to women about the most traumatic thing that ever happened to them, and how to pace the interview to ask them, “Is it okay if we talk a little bit more about this?”

New: Those who need therapy often have to pay out of pocket or go without care, even if they have health insurance. Hundreds of mental health providers told us they fled networks because insurers made their jobs impossible and their lives miserable. propub.li/4dW1vsy

There are nowhere near enough available therapists in insurance networks to serve all the people seeking care. Although most Americans are insured, about half of people with mental illness are unable to access treatment The consequences can be devastating search.app/A3g7faFuG8yiUS…

April.

In Times Union op-ed, Project Guardianship and Jessica Scarcella-Spanton call for $15M in sustained guardianship funding, citing ProPublica reporting: “The story echoed what many of us in the guardianship world have known all along: We need all hands on deck.” timesunion.com/opinion/articl…

Mom purse findings: rocks, bandaid wrappers, this cute doll 🤪

Absolutely must read this story. Incredibly detailed, heart wrenching reporting and writing. Just devastating.
