Best wishes to Dave Chanatry, my colleague and friend, who's moderated the Ivory Tower @WCNYPBS show for the past 9 years. This weekend is his last show. Watch tonight at 8, Saturday at 5:30 or stream anytime at https://t.co/hDMPKB6gEB

Thanks producers, staff, @jdickerson1968, @mauriceduboistv for your good work on @CBSEveningNews. It was a strong network show with its short opening tease, strong reporting, the well-written quick Roundup and the long-form piece at the end. I will miss this show.

Frustrated with the media? Well it does make a difference: @nysfocus reported NY Health Dept. had never implemented a law to reimburse kidney donors for their expenses. After the story, the state finally did -- 3 years later! @GovKathyHochul

[Barbara Fought @bcfought]

Ugh. Stiff competition for #IvoryTower at 8 tonight. World Series airs as well as @CuseFootball ! No problem, just stream #IvoryTower at later @WCNYPBS (https://t.co/hDMPKB5IP3 )anytime after 8:30 p.m. or another day!

@WCNYPBS @SyracuseU @HamiltonCollege @suny_cortland @uticauniversity I mentioned on-air when we recorded this morning that a judge might usurp us and sure enough, not not 1 but 2 judges did!

So sad. So very sad. Israel’s killing of 31 Yemeni journalists marks deadliest global attack in 16 years https://t.co/cxiBZVaMkw via @CPJMENA

Very powerful and well reported story by two @PostStandard reporters @meisenstadtsyr and @mbreidenbach re: raid on local factory. https://t.co/KHwfKkgQeC

@AmazonHelp #KindleDigitalPublishing. Please check verification process. We've ready to publish a book but can't verify. Tried to load a very clear photo in 8 attempts : 3 computers, 2 mobile phones, 2 browsers, and none worked. We'd love to use your service but are frustrated.

I think the show we recorded this a.m. is better than average show; good background info on all topics. Tell me if you agree. Watch at 8 p.m. tonight or 5:30 p.m. Saturday on @WCNYPBS or streaming online after 8:30 tonight.

[WCNY @WCNYPBS]

Host @bcfought and Sarah Pralle of @SyracuseU, Anirban Acharya of @LeMoyne, Tara Ross of @OnondagaCC, and Rick Fenner of @uticauniversity discuss the China Summit, congressional stock trading, and whether Google is too big.

Tune in tonight at 8 p.m. on #WCNY-TV.

Our church is looking for a music director -- who can lead both choral and contemporary music. Pass this on to anyone you know who would love to shape University United Methodist Church, Syracuse, NY's dynamic music ministry , https://t.co/i1gTiy79X5

Good analysis of the #DetroitTigers @Tigers broadcast team in @Freep with @NewhouseBDJ alum @JasonBenetti garnering most of the love. https://t.co/znoeVnNY7H

[Barbara Fought @bcfought]

Huh! Just after I typed those names the @SyracuseMets got a home run, bringing in 2 guys on base. Must be the magic of those names!

[Barbara Fought @bcfought]

First persons I think of are ⁦@jasonbenetti⁩ and ⁦@MikeCouzens⁩

[Barbara Fought @bcfought]

You can check out #IvoryTower @WCNYPBS now Thursdays at 8 pm (still also Fri @ 8p and Sat 5:30p). Tonight you'll hear @DrBenBaughman, @PolSciLukePerry , Sarah Pralle and Tara Ross talk about whether local governments can do anything to to keep food prices down.

Syracuse Police have shut down access to its license plate surveillance data after @Central_Current showed it was not supposed to make it available. Had been searched 4.4 million times! Another example why journalism matters. https://t.co/Nh4KRrRbfE
