Thanks to @ChrisHardie for having me on his podcast to talk about my time at the Pal-Item. It was a great conversation. I just wish I had better answers about the future of local journalism.

The push for diversity among city employees is just one step toward true equality, according to Mayor Snow. He also discusses the recent rise in shootings in Richmond in this Q&A. https://t.co/PxxGjfsv4Q

Mayor Snow says it isn’t a coincidence that so many projects in recent years have been focused on the heart of the city. The work there is necessary now, he says, and it will benefit the rest of Richmond. https://t.co/5C4Se0nGx3

.⁦@Reid_Health⁩ expects to receive the first COVID vaccine next month, but it won’t be nearly as much as what they were first told. These first doses won’t be available to the general public. They’ll be targeted at long-term care facility staff. https://t.co/2XIwMPmIVh

There are still deals and shoppers, but Black Friday this year is not the same.

In complaint after complaint, customers of a local mobile home moving company tell the same story: They make a down payment only to have the work go undone and the money never returned. The alleged pattern has led to at least 15 civil and criminal cases. https://t.co/n7yWFD8eW6

Let's be honest: Few, if any, of us will be sad to see 2020 pass into history in a few weeks. To say this year has been rough would be quite the understatement. But the past 11 months haven't been all bad. There's been some good news sprinkled in as well. https://t.co/2UQInauOtq

[Mike Emery @MikeEmeryWWN]

A Nov. 16 fire at a former greenhouse on Arba Pike has been ruled arson. It's one of six fires since Oct. 11 being investigated by RFD as arson.

As many Wayne County residents have died of COVID-19 in November as did in the previous month, and we still have a week to go — and a holiday known for its large family gatherings — before December arrives. https://t.co/h4DgWGO66w
