HPR statement on Twitter labeling @NPR 👇
A common source of disappointment is recency bias: weighing the last week more heavily than the last year.
Zooming in on the immediate past magnifies slumps. Zooming out farther reveals upward slopes.
Progress is rarely visible at a snapshot in time. It unfolds over a lifetime.
Hawai‘i journalists and media professionals: Join us on Nov. 17 for a pau hana at Village Bottle Shop & Tasting Room!

“1 in 6 people living in Hawaiʻi are Filipino. We want our readers to know more about the country and the people from there.
“To do that, let’s hire a Korean American, Polynesian dance aficionado from Massachusetts who visited the Philippines once while in transit to Hawaiʻi.”
@jubay@CivilBeat In other news, I’m working on a new series for @HawaiiNewsNow sharing our many untold Filipino-Hawaii stories so look out for that! I’m Fil-Am, worked in the Philippines for 3 years and understand Tagalog and Bisaya. 🇵🇭
Of course, this is nothing new. But always disappointing and a disservice to the community it purports to serve and be a part of. https://t.co/zKCQNAwbTo
This isn’t about any one reporter. But how does this do justice to what the community deserves? How can you report on a very specific ethnic and geographic group and hire someone outside that community and maintain credibility? Who is this for?

Putting on my News side hat … Dr. James Ireland of the City’s Emergency Services Dept gets emotional talking about an ambulance that caught on fire or exploded transporting a patient to Castle Hospital. An EMT who was in the back of the vehicle is critical, and the patient died.
The tyranny of pedestrians:
“He said many people regularly park on unimproved shoulders and installing sidewalks is often controversial.
“If I was to announce I was putting sidewalks in Manoa, there would be a revolution,” he said. https://t.co/IjeO2pYnLG
