I spent years chasing the suspicious slaying of Ruben Salazar. Here’s my story, part of an impressive @latimes package for the #ChicanoMoratorium 50th anniversary. https://t.co/vTxBvcAtyz

The @Palomaartes launched his book - TODOS SOMOS SAGRADOS - All Are Sacred - yesterday @BBLitArts in Venice. Nice to see old friend @LAJourno in a truly inspiring evening of poetry and all things @ProyectoNews. 👏🏾🙏🏾📖

@RicTorresII @Palomaartes @BBLitArts @ProyectoNews Very nice event and great seeing everyone

[Robert J. Lopez @LAJourno]

@sherlyholmes @LAMaterialNews I had no idea that you broke this great story. A friend of mine, an LA politico, texted me the LAT story and I didn’t see LA Material credited (though perhaps I missed it)

My investigation exposing regulatory failures and child labor abuses on California farms took top honors in two categories for Division 1 in the California Journalism Awards. Thank you @CNPAservices for recognizing my work 🙏🏾

@FrankGirardot What is the LAFD inspection history?

Trump and Spencer Pratt portray California as a dystopian hellscape. The Californian gubernatorial candidates portrayed CA as a state in crisis. The debate is putting a microscope on Gavin Newsom's vulnerabilities, but he is pushing back hard on "California Derangement Syndrome" https://t.co/brqY6PPoGD

Congratulations—well deserved!

Thank you to the Sacramento Press Club for naming me Journalist of the Year. The shock has not worn off.

@shelbygrad This article fails to answer an important question: where does the council member stand on this issue?

[Ben Poston @bposton]

Very cool to see our 2020 hospice fraud series "Dying for Dollars" get a shout out by the @latimes today. The fraud never stopped.
