Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter & investigations editor @PittsburghPG. Formerly of @washingtonpost and @miamiherald. Dad. On The Streets. The underdog matters.
Congrats, my friend and colleague, @jkbjournalist, who finally gets the prize after years of relentless reporting on one of the biggest stories of our lifetime.
🧵STATEWIDE INVESTIGATION: Across Pennsylvania, thousands of children are unvaccinated against the measles, putting communities below the critical threshold of herd immunity — the level that experts say is needed to stem the spread of the disease.
NEW: The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette will continue publishing! It has been acquired by the nonprofit Venetoulis Institute, which runs the Baltimore Banner. My story here: https://t.co/VsTFjeNqNs
So proud of the Medill Investigative Lab students who worked with @MikeSallah7 and team at the @PittsburghPG on "Deadly Dust," named a semi-finalist for the 2026 Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting.
GRAPHIC: CBP officers shoot another person in Minneapolis at point-blank range. Footage obtained exclusively by BT shows federal officers on Nicollet Ave. on top of a man on the ground, before one CBP officer pulls his gun and repeatedly fires. Witnesses say that after the shooting CBP then walked down the block filming bystanders. Nothing else is known at this point about what preceded this, the identity of the man shot, or his current condition. FBI agents and an ambulance are at the scene.
Thank you so much to all who have sent such amazing kind words of support to me. This work is very challenging. I cant even put into words how much your support has meant — and how much it has helped to me to keep going. Thank you. Happy New Years and prayers to all of Epstein’s victims. Let’s make 2026 the year we get to the truth.
