Hell of a visualization in this @mhkeller@Eli_Mur@danielle_ivory deep dive on killer SUVs of a simulated pedestrian getting crushed under a grill
Safety regulators have done virtually nothing to fix the problem, since only drivers matter to @NHTSAgov:

As many have pointed out already, the many journalists who worked on this piece are clearly listed by name. And since a screenshot never tells the full story, here's a gift link for anyone who wants to read.

Proposed cuts to N.I.H. grants would hit just about every hospital and university that does medical research. We have estimates of the effects everywhere. (Including a table where you can look up places near you.)
“To assess the impact of the pandemic years, The New York Times created a map of every gun homicide in the United States since 2020, using data collected from the police and news media accounts by the nonprofit Gun Violence Archive.”

Since 2019, $16.8 million in federal dollars has flowed into RI to fix lead paint hazards in homes.
Most of that money still hasn't been used, and this summer, the feds may start recapturing unspent funds.

Rhode Island requires landlords to obtain lead certificates to prove they are safe, but who is responsible for enforcing this requirement? @nina_spar dove into this topic for her project in partnership with @ReportingHealth https://t.co/H54ZMjXj8f
@TB_Times congrats to the team @helenfreund@SamOgozalek@langstonitaylor@HannaCritch for their stellar reporting, which included compiling a list of more than 580 kratom overdose victims in FL alone and analytical testing of a slew of consumer kratom products
Kratom is ubiquitous in smoke shops, corner stores, & kava bars in the US. A @TB_Times investigation sheds light on the public health consequences of an understudied & widely available drug often marketed to people struggling with addictions. https://t.co/TeNaoJgxrk
UAW has expanded its strike to 38 additional locations: distribution centers of G.M. and Stellantis, the parent of Jeep and Ram

It's been four years since the @TB_Times originally covered the Church of Scientology's covert real estate purchases. Now they're bringing in outside real estate investors to mask Church involvement. Of course, @TroMcManus has got the goods: https://t.co/0eCNkC3Z7O
NEW: Had Hurricane Ian hit Tampa Bay, one of the most destructive storms in U.S. history almost certainly would have been even more devastating.
@ZackSampson and @langstonitaylor explain why in Part 4 of their stunning Rising Threat series

My final story in the Tampa Bay Times published this morning. I'm really proud of this one and of all my colleagues who covered the storm.
How strong is storm surge? It's like stopping an Amtrak car with your house:

Water, not wind, is the biggest killer in a hurricane. Understanding the threat can make the difference between life and death.
So @Eli_Mur built a computer model to explain what makes storm surge so powerful and dangerous. @TB_Times
