Some personal/career news, as they say…
Today is my first day at @njdotcom as a Breaking News Reporter! I’m thrilled to join the team and begin my career as a full-time journalist. Please reach out with tips at asturm (at) njadvancemedia dot com.
First at FOS: Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White, two former NBA players, are not eligible to play in the WNBA, league sources tell FOS.
Sources call their draft declarations “publicity stunts” and say there are no immediate eligibility matters to address.
If people like Enes Kanter actually cared about women’s sports, he wouldn’t show up to the most popular women’s sports league in the country as an antagonist.
Good and classic story idea—sorry there’s no DSA electoralist book store to conduct interviews at, you guys should open one.
The quotes are fair and well-reasoned and aren’t cherry-picked to make DSA look bad.
But a hit socialist will holler, as they say
@TimmyFacciola_@WillBredderman Crazy take Timmy. Don’t you understand that reporters should only talk to media-trained professional paid to represent an organization?
Not a contradiction when you realize that trans people are real and deserve to be defended; whereas tech corporations (like all corporations) are a legal fiction and so can be subject to democratic control.
Breanna Stewart spent 15 minutes talking to reporters about all of this.
Stewart told us that the royalties from her Harry Potter shoes have been donated to the @TrevorProject.
an extremely stupid route to the correct answer that sports franchises should be publicly owned. do not apply this logic to any other aspect of american life
I don't understand people dunking on this story. DSAers have made it clear they don't care about Gordillo's home. The bookstore-goers said the same. The story says that!
New: Amid this week’s revelation that a DSA leader lives in a $1.5M home, I visited the anarchist Williamsburg bookstore Property is Theft to see how their patrons are taking the news. https://t.co/bDxTaDmZJm
