@cholent_lover @LisaParkerNBC Of course I’ll be interested. Thank you for sharing your views.

@cholent_lover @LisaParkerNBC For this story, we wanted to hear the POV from a small, affordable housing owner and his experience with accessing rental assistance $$. Many providers we talked to told us they no longer use “landlord” since it’s a “dated term” so we used both terms in our story.

[Tom Jones @TomJonesABCNews]

@cholent_lover @LisaParkerNBC Hello @cholent_lover,
Thank you for reaching out. For months, Lisa and I have spoken with tenants and tenant advocates like LCBH and CARPLS. Here’s a story we ran a few weeks ago. https://t.co/gvD77v3FRK

We include resources for both tenants and landlords in all of our stories.

The DHS IG found that a Customs and Border Protection official asked the Mexican government in December 2018 to block 14 U.S. citizens from entering Mexico as the caravan approached the U.S. border even though it had “no genuine basis” to do so. https://t.co/WgVIVsEsyX

[Bill Feather @BFeatherNBC]

30 months following our initial @nbcsandiego reporting that the U.S. Government was tracking journalists and immigration advocates in a secret database, @DHSOIG has published their report. More tonight on #NBC7

In addition, CBP did “not retain communication records” surrounding this and were “not forthcoming about the disclosures” to the DHS OIG.

If you have a loved one or friend with sleep apnea, you need to read this. So many people I’ve talked to had no idea about it. Sleep Medicine Doctors say they’ve never dealt w/ a wide-scale problem like this before.

[Tom Jones @TomJonesABCNews]

This national award is a great honor for my #StolenNBC team and all the survivors who bravely shared their stories with us. Hopefully this will help inspire other TV journos wanting to try a different kind of story telling.

Thank you, @TimesofSanDiego for the article 👇🏻
