Seven @UF@UFJSchool students and four from @FAMU_1887@FAMUSJGC82 joined me, @miralowe and two other advisers for an eight-day, 2,800-mile #reporting trip through Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee. We dubbed ourselves #UFxFAMU1963.

Michael B. Jordan was just spotted at In-N-Out Burger showing love to workers and fans while holding his Oscar after winning Best Actor in a Leading Role for “Sinners” at the 98th Academy Awards.
Eight National Association of Black Journalists presidents yesterday at #NABJ25 including incoming president @errinhaines of Atlanta (in green) and 6th president Al Fitzpatrick (seated), 96, who served from 1985-1987.
#NABJ celebrating 50 years!
Year 3 at @Loyola_NOLA! Excited to teach Advanced Journalism & Mass Comm Ethics/Diversity as the Marion M. & John S. Stokes Jr. Visiting Professor. Even more thrilled to keep building our sports journalism program. A new journey begins! 📰✍🏽⚜️
Life update: It’s a blessing and a dream come true to say today was my first day working at @cbschicago.
I’m beyond grateful to join this team in my hometown.
Wouldn’t be here today without the love and support of family and friends.
Excited to tell Chicago’s stories!
Grateful to be named 2025 Journalist of the Year by @NABJ — an organization that has so shaped my life and career.
I have many people to thank. But I also want to dedicate this award to every journalist who focuses their reporting on those political systems would rather ignore. And in particular the journalists in Gaza, who have persisted amid a violent campaign to silence their work.
To spell it out: The Run-Up was not a show about who’s going to win. But how an antiquated electoral system flattens a changing, diverse country — and deepens polarization among an electorate that’s often more alike than it knows.
Below are my remarks in full:
Over the weekend, I was honored to receive the Percy Qoboza Foreign Journalist of the Year Award from #Nabj. I dedicated the award to the many journalists who risk their lives everyday on the frontlines of wars & rarely get the recognition they deserve.
In some news, I started today as a reporting intern for @chronicle! I'm super excited to be living in Washington DC (and braving the cold) this semester. Keep an eye out for our coverage, and send me all things higher ed — [email protected]
If you look closely at the @DiamondHeels’ hats, you will see the letters “JR.”
J.R. Anton was a program fixture. He was a fan, bat boy and friend.
And now, the team is keeping his memory alive as they travel to his hometown of Omaha for the CWS.

I’m already annoyed by this conversation because for years, WNBA players have fought for more money. And when they were outspoken, so many of y’all told them to shut up or reminded them how they had no value The NBA has had 50+ years of investment, media coverage, etc. After 27 years, the WNBA will not be the current NBA. So stop comparing them.
Further context: This salary is for four months of basketball (40 games). Players also receive a free apartment + car. That doesn’t make the salaries acceptable, but now you know why so many women’s players play overseas to boost/supplement their income.
Weaponizing this information against WNBA players is another form of misogyny. These women have been dreaming of playing professionally in front of American audiences their whole lives.
Instead of clowning and reminding them of what they’re not — buy the merchandise, go to the games, and watch the games on television.
Very easy to criticize when most of y’all couldn’t get paid to compete at anything.
