Similar to how a #FresnoBee editor inserted (w/out my approval) the words “savage,” and “rampage” into my stories from #LA to describe residents who took to the streets following acquittal of white cops who beat #RodneyKing in ‘92. In that pre-Internet era, I only learned of the edits days later😬

Cecilia Vega describes what life at 60 Minutes was like under Bari Weiss, in the weeks before CBS fired her.

Short version: One of the most disastrous debuts in modern journalism history.

Via @oliverdarcy.bsky.social

On a separate piece about Donald Trump's Irag War, just three weeks into the conflict, Vega said she was told to introduce the story by saying, "Who is winning the war? Iran is totally outgunned by the United States and Israel." Vega called it an "administration talking point" used by the White House as it contended it was winning the war, which continues to rage months later without an end in sight. Finally, on a third piece about SNAP benefit cuts and poverty shot in the state of West Virginia, Vega and her team opted to tell the story "through the voices of strictly residents." Vega said she deliberately avoided interviewing experts and politicians for the piece. But Vega said she was asked why she had not either interviewed J.D. Vance or spoken to an expert about his "Hillbilly Elegy" book. The book, Vega noted, had been published a decade before her story and was about his upbringing in Ohio, not West Virginia.

In a new #fresnobee story, a judge determined that the City of Tulare violated environmental law by approving zoning changes that allowed industrial facilities to move in next to communities without proper environmental review.

Read the full story in the link in bio.

Inspired by (and nostalgic about!) seeing this bit of your journey. At age 29, my Pro goal was somewhat similar: to Work my way from a FT Staff Writer/MteroDesk spot at The FresnoBee, to a larger market— and find a Like-Minded Literary Journalism/LongForm Community. Sending you good energy + 💪🏾

It's true that immunocompromised people are more prone to severe microbial disease from raw milk, but they're not the only ones at risk.

BTW, the raw milk dairy in Fresno has been implicated in outbreaks of E. coli and Salmonella.

Avian flu found in raw milk from dairy in Fresno County. Voluntary recall issued
The retail sample was found in Santa Clara County.

How sad. Joe Rosato pre-dated me at the @FresnoBee. We already lost George Gruner, Jim Bort and William Patterson. Proud time for principled journalism.
