Like @lisatozzi I try hard not to be the angry yelling maniac editor. I work with purpose to support my gang and to make it clear they matter, their feelings matter. There’s nothing cool or tough or signifying about letting people abuse you. Or take your labor. — PolitiTweet.org

I got treated in a lot of ways that from the outside prolly seemed fucked up as a young reporter. For me, in some cases they worked. But others, no. And more to the point, they were harmful to others. Which means they were ALL bad. — PolitiTweet.org

I hate this excuse. You don’t treat people like garbage and use the excuse “that’s breaking news.”… https://t.co/lA9BLVlBdF

Is being a reporter a vocation? As in, a calling? I think for a lot of us, yes. I think a lot of us do this with passion because we want the world to be better, to hold the powerful to account, to speak for those who can’t. But that doesn’t mean we should abandon our humanity — PolitiTweet.org
