An important investigation that all my East Bay peeps should watch. With huge props to my brother and sis-in-law for bringing it to light and sharing their experience. Great work by @abc7newsbayarea and @StephanieABC7 @kenmiguel https://t.co/A3tpX3Kgh9

Proud of @EyeSpyTy and @nicholsmarkc for their hard work on this important story. Even got @mustangalli back in the field for a minute on this one.

So how did we get here? A riveting yet chilling look at the timeline to Jan 6. As one of our experts put it: “It’s hard to miss the slow boil.” @JoshMargolin @AHosenball @Santucci @MLevineReports @JWagnonCourts @OliviaRubinABC @wsteaks @lauraromero1207 @Alexmyersss @kate__holland

When the CDC data is broken down to a county level, it gets more disturbing. Btwn 2015 & 2019, there are whole counties that didn't record one gun-related homicide but recorded double-digit gun suicides, as seen in the interactive map embedded in the story. (3)

Local news is changing, and ABC-owned TV stations are upping their game by investing in investigative journalism. The first major (and ambitious) initiative from the ABC stations' data team is out today: 'Our America: Equity Report.' https://t.co/BSmQq58Re5

[Abner Mason @abnermason]

"In at least 18 of the 20 categories measured, the data revealed inequities in more than half of the United States' largest cities."

That includes gaps like access to health coverage.

Props to @jkelly3rd, @nicholsmarkc, @GraceMarie_35 & @JPFagg for this: https://t.co/JYvaWPpOFc
