Ole Miss is literally called this to honor how enslaved people had to refer to the slave owner’s wife. Black students account for less than 12 percent of the students there even though Mississippi is the most heavily Black state in the country. But keep telling me how DEI made them do it.

Thanks to @5280Magazine @walkerchris for the thoughtful piece about my pod “Body Brokers” about 2 unhinged CO funeral directors who dismembered the dead and sold the bodies. 8th & final episode is released Tues.
Megan Hess and her mother, Shirley Koch, sold body parts without consent. The crime they were sentenced for? Mail fraud. 5280.com/new-podcast-explore… @afantz

Want a wild listen this year that involves criminal funeral home owners, people who buy and sell bodies and - scariest of all - the possibility that any of us could be victimized after we go gently into that good night? I recorded something for ya podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

BREAKING NEWS -- Stanford's president will step down after an investigation into manipulation of data first triggered by @theobaker1, a freshman student journalist at the university. I can't think of a more powerful example of accountability journalism. stanforddaily.com/2023/07/19…

1) Thread for today: I am not going to opine on the Supreme Court's ruling except to tell a story about a late and valued friend. The story will suffice for the sum of my thoughts about affirmative action.
I was working at the student newspaper at the University of Maryland...

The *front runner* for the Republican nomination for President of the United States has just been found liable for sexual abuse.
The more these lawsuits pile up, the more of an aggrieved version of Trump we'll get.
He is unfit to hold office.

Hey @latimes - yes John and I used to be married. We are now friends and share a wonderful son together. In this context I am not an “ex wife,” I am a veteran journalist with decades of experience who worked hard for this role. Do better please.
Wam pow investigative reporting here. So will Justice Thomas face any consequences?
One thing that always amazes me about ProPublica - even after being here for three years - is it’s ability to come out of nowhere and clobber you with a story that the big guys missed or took for granted. Proud and insanely jealous of my colleagues @js_kaplan @JustinElliott
