Seething as I think about having to scramble to save PDFs of every obituary I wrote, every young person’s byline from the journalism spring break we did with The Creative School, info about deaths at the DC Jail that no other outlet reported…#UnlockDCist
Jenny's reporting for WAMU was tremendous, compassionate and vital. She is a genius and anything she does next will be made a million times better by her presence, but this is such a loss for the station.
Unbelievable loss for the station, and the region. Jenny covered a complicated and fraught beat with empathy and care, knowing that there's much more to public safety than just law and order. Her future in reporting is certain, but WAMU just lost an immense talent.

Today, we take a look at MPD's broader workplace culture, and some of the less often discussed reasons why officers have left the force: https://t.co/StQre6ASMK
Furthermore and MOST IMPORTANTLY, we are in our 9th year of the tiny desk contest. We invite thousands of unsigned acts to enter for an opportunity to play the real tiny desk, go on tour and help to jumpstart music careers. https://t.co/orO1CbDsC6
i can't overstate the incredible impact marissa has had on NPR and me. she's brilliant and thoughtful and lifts up everyone around her. an ever-patient and encouraging presence, she's helped me grow in so many ways. having her as a friend and colleague has changed my life
I was one of the people laid off from NPR during this brutal round of layoffs. I’m gutted and heartbroken that I won’t be able to continue working at @nprmusic on stories I love with people I admire so much. https://t.co/w5140CODur
You've all heard about the NPR layoffs by now and are rightly mourning and raging about the specifics of these cuts. I have a very personal tribute to pay and that's to @mrsslrss 1/
and speaking of cared for?! Bruhh @sorayashock cares deeper than anyone I know. Stands by their convictions. Pours into people. Makes every story better as editor.
While some folks astronomy might be real iffy, Soraya is Louder’s compass in ways I'm forever grateful for
As senior producer, @gabbybulgarelli has created the most energizing, organized and empathetic team dynamic ever. In addition to producing multiple eps (+reporting for one), she's delegated, mentored and made sure everyone’s whole self was cared for. https://t.co/QjgkuvaqdX
