A little fun in the exhibition hall at #IACPSanDiego with a very cool graffiti artist. Love seeing all of the sponsors like Carahsoft who help make this conference so great!

Seven years since leaving WFAA, but I still get to hug my favorite photojournalist every day. Happy #HugANewspersonDay Matt!

Today is #RareDiseaseDay2023 and Lucas is 1 in 10,000 with #WilliamsSyndrome. He loves music, uses an iPad to communicate and is making great strides in school. It takes a village to support his needs and we are grateful to have one.

@mingoramirezjr @startelegram Congratulations and best wishes in retirement. You have always been a trusted journalist and joy to work with.

Not only did this amazing photojournalist scrape ice for a stranger but @jobinpnews took the time to recognize the kindness after also being out in the cold. Great job to you BOTH covering Collin County weather!

[Jobin Panicker @jobinpnews]

After a long shift of freezing live shots and editing video packages photojournalist Matt McNew has the energy, but more importantly, the heart, to scrape ice off a stranger's car window. #JournalistsMatter @wfaa @wfaaweather

Truly sad to learn of Barbara Walters passing. She blazed a trail for so many.
