Going on hiatus for Japan traval. But first: Calvin Trillin on dog-barking, and Gerald Clayton on Duke Ellington's humanity. Two remarkable responses from two remarkable men. https://t.co/u3IxsWiYyG #Encounters

In 1965, the Pulitzer board refused to give Duke Ellington a special citation. He was 66. Ellington: "Fate doesn't want me to be too famous too young."
Thirty years later, Wynton Marsalis won the prize. New piece on what recognition means.

The ombudsman is nearly extinct. Local newsrooms are hollowing out. And we still haven't figured out how to pay for the journalism democracy needs.
Had a good conversation about all of it with @JulieGammack. https://t.co/fh5vL4eJy8

In 1976, I listened to Jimmy Carter's victory on a shortwave radio in the Sahara. We carried it in a bag on our morning hike, antenna sticking above our heads.
Four years later, the distant voice became a handshake at the White House.
