@DanLamothe Noel or Nobel?

@YourAnonCentral Why would you disrespect a porta potty?

[Kevin Z Smith @ethicsmith]

@BradMcElhinny Justices agreed to pay it.
West Virginia would like a word with you, IRS.

Former Kiplinger Fellow @ChristopherJM is now, and has been, since the invasion of Ukraine, an authoritative source in the press’ efforts to cover this war on the field and in the board rooms. Today’s @financialtimes Great job.

@brianstelter We can see where this is headed. If BBC doesn’t settle or he begins losing in court, he’ll raise tariffs on England. Watch then to see if PM steps in. The SCOTUS needs to resolve the tariff issue quickly.

@MitchVingle @WVUfootball @WVUhoops Here is Cbus the Dispatch asked fans if they’d rather have a repeat national football title or finally beat Michigan. Another nattie won, but nearly 40 percent would give it up to beat their arch rival. It matters.

@nbc4i 50 years ago today an early Lakes’ storm wrecked the Edmund Fitzgerald.

@darreldrowland That purple prose is more than lap dog. That’s a leg humping.

@atrupar Why are we even talking about this? The nominations deadline was Jan. 31. He was in office 11 days. He stopped no wars in the first 11 days even though he said he would stop the Ukrainian war in 24 hours. He didn’t make the deadline. He isn’t going to get it this year. Period

'He had newspaper in his blood'
Legendary former Dispatch journalist John Switzer dies at 84
He was beloved for weather columns that were about everything but the weather
I always counted on him for a pithy Monday morning analysis of the latest OSU game...

Major kudos to Kip alumni @blakekaplan (R) and @bymatthewthall for their lobbying efforts on behalf of @newsalliance
Publishers are lobbying to stop Big Tech giants from taking content without payment, draining the creators of quality content of the resources they need. Get em.

@robertgraham @atrupar @grok If you’re counting Project Veritas as a legitimate journalism organization then go ahead and give the crazy old man down the street a broadcast license. They’re equal.

@Acyn We can also say that Republicans, realizing they can’t give the rich everything they want without the support of blue collar voters, have convince them to vote against their best interests and hate minorities for years as a core part of their platform.

@darreldrowland The killing off of public information by government officials is the greatest injustice taking place before of eyes and few people confront.

@JohnAntonik I was a freshman at WVU in his final year. I can still see the dummy hanging from a tree in Woodburn Circle with his name on it. What they did to him there was inexcusable. With every win of his career I hope it stung Mountaineer fans.

@Ronxyz00 Says the guy who wrote a book on tariffs and relied on a primary economist who turned out to be him with a disguised name. So he’s a fake and a liar in published form.

[J. Israel Balderas @jisraelbalderas]

Excellent news. But…do me a favor and don’t delete this important regulation that restraints the @FCC from engaging in censorship.

@jackwindsor @ohiou @KipProgram What journalism school did you attend? Remind me again.

[Kevin Z Smith @ethicsmith]

On my way to Armenia for a week of lectures to journalism students at American University of Armenia. We’ll be talking media ethics. OU colleagues will cover digital media and trauma reporting. @ohiou @KipProgram @aua_insta

@jackwindsor @darreldrowland He blocked me, but now that I know he’s a failed wedding planner turned journalist, it all makes sense.

[Kevin Z Smith @ethicsmith]

@jackwindsor @darreldrowland I’m not your son. But I’m sure the people at Scripps School of Journalism would love to read your letter. Let me know if you need help with the big words.
