So excited that @abc7newsbayarea is the new home of the @SFCCC415 Chinese New Year Parade, starting with the "Year of the Snake" on 2/15/25. It started decades ago (with its first TV broadcast on @KQEDnews w/me & others as co-hosts). The best is ahead! https://t.co/zimwl9XE3A

New ‘23 Silicon Valley Poll continues to reflect pessimism among residents about the region’s outlook on multiple fronts: quality of life, housing affordability, unhoused & economic stability. 3 out of 4 say quality of life has deteriorated, putting pressure on finding solutions.

The end of an era as ⁦@rupertmurdoch⁩ steps down as chairman of ⁦@FOXCorp⁩ and ⁦@newscorp⁩. Photo from 2017 when I interviewed him one-on-one at ⁦@Stanford⁩.

Three years ago today ⁦@abc7newsbayarea⁩ captured this drone view of orange skies over downtown #sanfrancisco from wildfire smoke. It was so eerie. Do you remember the gloom and the smell of smoke? #abc7now

[David Louie @abc7david]

A night to remember. Thank you ⁦@CCCSanFrancisco⁩ for honoring me with a Lifetime Achievement in Community Building award at the “Harmony & Bliss” gala. Communities grow stronger as we all work together. Chinatown artist ⁦@lelandwong⁩ created the striking artwork.

[David Louie @abc7david]

This is truly the most creative, original and joyful honoree award ever. Thank you @lelandwong for sharing your talent to make the @CCCSanFrancisco gala so memorable. Love the dragon in my caricature!

[lelandwong @lelandwong]

Hope they're happy with the artwork. @CCCSanFrancisco gala with honoree @abc7david @conniechansf
