This makes me incredibly happy and proud. 💕

As many cities see their local news wither, Springfield is experiencing a news renaissance. A new nonprofit @sgfcitizen and growth at @ksmu, along with a watchdog editor over at the @springfieldNL #Ozarks #localnews #journalism

Nature's architecture at its finest: Glory Hole Falls in Arkansas features a 30-ft waterfall streaming through a rock ceiling into a cavern. A must-see in the Ozarks!

I've driven past this place many times on the way to Nixa. It was fun to read about it's origins!

This was a fascinating read about restoring prairie lands through fire in the Ozarks. (But not today, of course. CRAZY wind out there.)

Kick cabin fever to the curb. There is lots of outdoors-inspired indoor fun for little ones in Springfield — and it's all budget-friendly. @BrittanyMeiling has your guide to exploring the great outdoors, indoors.

Was this story a result of my own cabin fever? Why yes. Yes it was. @sgfcitizen

“The lead—like the title—should be a flashlight that shines down into the story. A lead is a promise. It promises that the piece of writing is going to be like this. If it is not going to be so, don’t use the lead.” John McPhee, born this day.

Absolutely gutting news. My former employer — and my most beloved newspaper — has been sold to an Alden-owned media group. I'm so tired of seeing the best journalists in the business subjected to cuts.

[Greg Moran @gregmoran]

All we did at the @sdut since @drpatrick bought us is be profitable, execute
on a plan to transition to a digital op. Didnt hemorrhage money like the LAT, didn’t get a boatload of hires.
And for that the richest guy in LA sells us to the biggest chop shop in journalism.

Endpoints is now at home with the @FT. It's been 7 years since @JohnCendpts and I bootstrapped the company. Thank you to all of our earliest supporters. You made our dreams a reality.

@EmilyLetterman Mine calls peanut butter "peanuh bunnies." It makes me so happy every time that I never correct him. He'll figure it out eventually.

[Brittany Meiling @BrittanyMeiling]

This guy impressed me from start to end. The @sgfcitizen is so lucky to have Rance Burger as the new Managing Editor.

@EmilyLetterman That sweet, sweet butter. And the rolls.

As much as I love journalism — and in particular, this fantastic team — it’s time for me to hit the pause button on my career. Here's more about why I'm resigning from @sgfcitizen

[Springfield Daily Citizen @sgfcitizen]

Just six months ago the thought of leaving the Daily Citizen would've "shocked" managing editor @BrittanyMeiling. In this column, she tells you what changed and what's next for her.

@erinkwoo Haha, talkingbiz scoops again! 😂

[Springfield Daily Citizen @sgfcitizen]

Our newsroom team of 7 full-time journalists, plus a freelance network, needs a new leader as our Managing Editor @BrittanyMeiling leaves to stay home full-time with her 2-year-old son. Details here on this terrific opening:

@lindyspfld I can't get rid of Flare Audio ads. They're everywhere now and the entire newsroom is getting them. Lol

@ChuckLaTournous That means the world to me. Thank you.

[Brittany Meiling @BrittanyMeiling]

After the most exciting year and a half of my professional life, I have some perhaps surprising news. I’m resigning as managing editor of the Daily Citizen so that I can stay home full-time with my 2-year-old son. (1)

[Brittany Meiling @BrittanyMeiling]

@emily3lytle Same! You're doing such important work. I signed up for your newsletter on my personal email so I wouldn't lose track of your research, and will connect you with Judi for future SDC convos!

[Brittany Meiling @BrittanyMeiling]

@EmilyLetterman Thanks, Emily. I'm sad to not be here in its next phase, because there are such great things coming! But I am indeed looking forward to toddler time (minus tantrums). 🫣
