Leah Asmelash / CNN: Nikole Hannah-Jones declines UNC tenured position and will join Howard University
@joekillianpw: In our interview, Hannah-Jones made it clear: The silence and lack of transparency from school leadership - particularly Guskiewicz - made taking another offer inevitable. They could have prevented this, had they put in the work. The more you sweat, the less you bleed.
@naacp_ldf: “I have never asked for special treatment. I did not seek it here. All I asked was to be judged by my credentials and treated fairly and equally.” @nhannahjones' official statement on declining the tenure offer from UNC Chapel Hill: https://www.naacpldf.org/...
Sherrilyn Ifill / @sifill_ldf: If you read nothing else on this platform today, take a moment and read the entire statement from @nhannahjones on her decision not to take the Knight Chair at UNC, and to teach instead as a tenured professor at @HowardU. https://www.naacpldf.org/...
Ida Bae Wells / @nhannahjones: The story about the discrimination I faced in the UNC tenure debacle was broken by excellent local reporter @JoekillianPW. So I gave him the exclusive print interview. Local news matters. Please support @NCPolicyWatch and other local news. https://twitter.com/...
@joekillianpw: In the end, she got what most faculty, staff and alumni agreed she deserved: a public, up or down vote on whether she should, like all her white Knight Chair predecessors, be offered tenure. That she won't be accepting the offer says more about UNC than it does her.
Jemele Hill / @jemelehill: It was this part for me. The Ether beat was playing in my head as I read it. https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
@johnniejae: There are people who inspire greatness, inspire hope and the confidence to believe that we can do and be better, who see the big picture that as we rise, we raise up others. @nhannahjones is one of those people but thats not what makes her extraordinary https://twitter.com/...
James Gleick / @jamesgleick: UNC—and every other educational institution that surrenders power to mega donors—needs to do some housecleaning. https://twitter.com/...
Mondaire Jones / @mondairejones: “These times demand courage, and those who have held the most power in this situation have exhibited the least of it.” Incredibly moved by @nhannahjones' courage and self-respect in the face of unfair, racist treatment.

Jeff Jarvis / @jeffjarvis: Truth be told, I'd have killed to have taught alongside @nhannahjones at my journalism school. I know that to be the case for every journalism faculty in the nation. But I am delighted for @HowardU that it has been able to attract such talent and with it resource and attention.
@fly_sistah: @chris_notcapn And she helped Howard raise over $20 million to create the Center for Journalism and Democracy nearly matching the $25 million Walter Hussman gave to UNC to rename the journalism school & inject himself into hiring decisions. https://www.ncpolicywatch.com/ ...

A look at the increased competition in weather reporting, with Fox poaching Weather Channel talent in the lead up to the launch of streaming channel Fox Weather — As viewers tune out cable news, Rupert Murdoch is preparing the debut of Fox Weather, a potentially powerful new player in a sphere long dominated by the Weather Channel.

Charlie Warzel / @cwarzel: without being alarmist, i find this pretty concerning. but it makes sense that reporting the weather during a climate emergency will become the next cable news war over reality. seems bad! https://www.nytimes.com/...
Eric Holthaus / @ericholthaus: Hot take: I honestly couldn't care less about Fox Weather. The folks who are going to be interested in Fox Weather aren't the folks who are forward-thinking in a rapidly warming world.

John Schwartz / @jswatz: “How do you address the fact that weather changes are caused to some degree by humans when you have a media property with a history of challenging that fact?” https://www.nytimes.com/...
Eric Holthaus / @ericholthaus: To be relevant in 2021, coverage of weather and climate has to be grounded in truth. It has to be trustworthy. It has to be personal. It has to meet people where they are. The main truth of our time is the climate emergency & that we need systemic change to thrive this century.
Peter Gleick / @petergleick: First Fox News endangers the health of their audience by misleading about vaccines. Now they're likely to produce weather forecasts that mislead about the risks of climate change. Fox News is bad for your health. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Eric Holthaus / @ericholthaus: Any media service — especially a weather service — not grounded in that truth is not going to do well. Viewers are smart. We know when we're being lied to, we know when key facts are missing. That's why leading with climate is the only way weather coverage is going to work.

Rachel Scott / @rachelvscott: So much of this- Jan. 6 was my first day covering the Hill as the incoming Congressional Correspondent Every day I enter the Capitol, I walk by the same location where I saw a woman— shot, bloodied on a gurney staring at the Capitol she broke into. https://twitter.com/...
@emeraldrobinson: Dear @VICENews: I was at the Capitol that day in the Cannon building. It was no big deal. Put your big boy pants on. https://twitter.com/...
Haley Talbot / @haleytalbotnbc: I started to think about what I would use defend our group if the mob were to smash through the third-floor glass and enter the gallery. The congresswoman next to me had a cane. That's what I'd use. I thought about how I'd position myself to block as many people as possible.
Grace Segers / @grace_segers: Six months ago today, a violent mob of Trump supporters overran the Capitol in a deadly attack, spurred by a lie that continues to be repeated. They sought to overturn election results and harm lawmakers. The attack changed politics. It changed the country. It changed me.
Alexander Panetta / @alex_panetta: Thinking back to that day when I did an angry rant on live TV and this story brings back all those feelings. https://twitter.com/...
Christopher Ingraham / @_cingraham: It would be nice if more coverage of Congress reflected this when reporters are confident that lawmakers are lying. Too often the wink and nod gets passed directly on to readers. https://twitter.com/...
Glenn Greenwald / @ggreenwald: Wonder what would happen to them if they had to report from war zones or stand down authoritarian governments trying to imprison them? Also wonder if they ever take a few seconds to compare their “trauma” to Julian Assange's?
Cameron Joseph / @cam_joseph: Six months after the Capitol insurrection, reporters are grappling with the fallout.

I was stuck in the balcony with so many of them that day. We need to hear their stories as well. https://twitter.com/...
Grace Segers / @grace_segers: When I'm at the Capitol, memories of 1/6 overlap the present like tracing paper. I don't just see a stairwell, I see Officer Goodman redirecting rioters. I hear echoes of shouts, ghosts of broken glass. I don't just see the rotunda, I see screaming rioters violating that space.
Shawna Thomas / @shawna: This was hard for me to read but I'm glad @cam_joseph wrote it and that some of the reporters, who I've watched and learned from, talked to him. https://twitter.com/...
Haley Talbot / @haleytalbotnbc: Very small portion of my video from inside Chamber 2:43PM on Jan 6 but I think it's important people understand what it was actually like that day. - glass to chamber doors shatter from rioters - officers + lawmakers barricade doors - loud gun shot - lawmakers audibly praying https://twitter.com/...
Grace Segers / @grace_segers: I can only speak for myself, but I know that what happened on January 6 will haunt me for the rest of my life.
Jonathan Tamari / @jonathantamari: awhile back there was a training for responding to emergencies - incl. how to use escape hoods.

Sarah Posner / @sarahposner: “all of the reporters interviewed for this story are worried that the riots won't be a one-off attack. 'It definitely could happen again. It's something that's on my radar. We've become very complacent in thinking the U.S. is different.'” #jan6 https://twitter.com/...

Jake Zuckerman / @jake_zuckerman: I really can't imagine dealing with the trauma of surviving Jan. 6 as a reporter, and then going back to work in a political system where congressmen repeat the lie that sparked the insurrection and reduce what happened to a “tourist visit” https://www.vice.com/...

Joan McCarter / @joanmccarter: Fantasitic reporting in this story, but a bizarre disconnect. So much of the reporting from D.C. and the Capitol doesn't reflect any of this, any of what happened on January 6. It's back to normal in how they report on the GOP. That's got to change if there's to be a reckoning. https://twitter.com/...
Lara Hartzenbusch / @lhartzenbusch: '"That was the thing that surprised me most of the entire day: They'd just gone through this, and they were still fucking objecting.I was shocked at that vote.

Jason Kint / @jason_kint: I find this move interesting. Leveraging Information brand, direct member relationships, platform. Also that it will be an add-on with its own price backing up Information feels good about renewals on core product.

Kristen Chick / @kristenchick: Colleagues and freelancers complained for years of abusive behavior by @nytimes international picture editor David Furst.

Rob Pegoraro / @robpegoraro: Newspapers have a bad habit of putting journalists in management roles who may be individually brilliant but have the people skills of a drawer full of rusty tools - but this guy seems to have taken control-freakery to a misanthropic level. https://www.cjr.org/...

Andrew Beaujon / @abeaujon: Shocking stuff about an apparent petty tyrant who thrived in photojournalism https://twitter.com/...
Anna Clark / @annaleighclark: This story showcases the particular vulnerability of freelancers, even at (especially at) prestige outlets.

Josie Ensor / @josiensor: “One photographer who has worked for the @nytimes for a decade says David Furst asked her in 2015 whether she planned to have children. She still does not have children, and while Furst is not the only reason, he's a large part of it, she says” https://www.cjr.org/...

It's absolutely heartbreaking to think of how many women's careers - staff and freelance alike - were impeded by this man, & how many around him just let it happen. https://www.cjr.org/...
Dene-Hern Chen / @denechen: An important thing to remember when reading this is that it took a decade of his actions being “normal” and well-known before this was published. Newsroom leaders would do well to reflect on what headlines might look like for them — & their outlets — in the future. #journalism https://twitter.com/...
Lulu / @lourdesgnavarro: I'm incredibly proud of my friend Andrea Bruce for going on the record about what so many have said privately. Photojournalism is an incredibly hard profession — which relies on the goodwill and support of editors, especially if you are a freelancer. https://twitter.com/...
Hannah Yoon / @hanloveyoon: Where can freelancers go when they have concerns of abuse? It's always an unsettling place to be in. If folks speak out or if I share this article, will this make me less desirable to the Times editors? There's no guarantee of anything https://twitter.com/...
Jane Hahn / @janehahnphoto: These are the men this industry has entrusted to shape the way we see the world.

Jackie Dove / @jackidove: @mediagazer @kristenchick So many workplaces are just like this, where one tyrannical bully in charge dominates, and no one feels empowered to challenge them. At the same time, management declines to control the situation. That's otherwise known as a hellhole.
