Being a reporter, I never wanted to make myself the story. But this time, I thought there’s more at stake than myself. I think about the community I represent, and who might find the governor’s comment hurtful. A thread:
Reporter Yanqi Xu did some good journalism.
Rather than respond to her findings, Jim Pillen went on the radio and said that her work wasn't worth reading because of where she came from.
How embarrassing. Infuriating. Sad.

I’m sure #Oppenheimer is great. I hope you also research the wrenching history it leaves out.
“On the sidelines will be a community downwind from the testing site…. The movie… sheds no light on those residents’ pain.”

Oppenheimer met the president after atomic bombs: ‘I have blood on my hands’
While Truman assured J. Robert Oppenheimer he should not carry the burden of the bombs, the president was privately infuriated by the “crybaby scientist.” Loved writing this one. washingtonpost.com/history/2…

#OnThisDay in 1963: When a National Guardsman poked his bayonet at Gloria Richardson in Cambridge MD, she pushed it away, refusing to back down. The image inspired change, too, ending segregation & creating a human rights commission. #history
