Tech reporter looking into billionaire Marc Benioff’s vast Hawaiian land holdings says Benioff demanded to know the headline, called NPR’s CEO, says he knew “the exact area” where she was staying & brought up personal details about her family: “You have a job and I have a job.”
WAMU management and @AmericanU, which owns our license, has let us and you — our listeners, readers, and members — down. They have failed to steward the service we all rely on. We know the journalism industry is struggling, but poor leadership has led us to this moment.
Thank you all for the kind messages. I’m going to take some time to figure out what’s next for me, but if you’re looking for a journalist — who speaks Spanish and can report and produce audio features — please keep me in mind for future freelance and hiring opportunities 💪🏽
Hi. I’m one of the @DCist@wamu885 reporters laid off. I’m deeply saddened to no longer cover the immigrant communities who make D.C. & our region so special. I’m beyond proud of the reporting I’ve done on air and our website since starting this beat from scratch 2 years ago ❤️
You probably deserve to pick up a pack of your favorite candy from that one halloween when you were younger. Little hump day boost? Friday treat? Enjoy.
