This is an example of solid, persistent, interviewing.
Holy shit! This journalist (who is a Venezuelan immigrant) just caused Stephen Miller to have a full blown meltdown after busting him for using fake crime data!

The sweep of this latest @washingtonpost series, Terror on Repeat, about the destruction of assault rifles in mass shootings, staggering. It's a powerful, thoughtful, insightful piece of journalism. It's also very hard to take in. washingtonpost.com/nation/in…

I was telling @RoyPeterClark that interviewing @newsbysamuels and @ToluseO was such a dream, because they embody the marriage of craft and purpose and joy.
Want to know what it means to apply your writing craft in journalism to a "really big purpose." Please read this interview by my colleague @kellymcb with two young writers of the Pulitzer winner in nonfiction books. It lifted me up. poynter.org/reporting-editin…

The journalists who wrote the Pulitzer-Prize winning book, His Name Is George Floyd, are 37- and 38-years old. So much advice and insight here about how to do great work. poynter.org/reporting-editin…

My colleagues and their very smart first takes on the Pulitzer Prizes. (Great reporting on corruption out of Alabama and Mississippi).

So well-deserved. Honestly one of the best stories I've ever read.
Replying to @Poynter
The #Pulitzer for Explanatory Reporting is awarded to @itscaitlinhd of @TheAtlantic for deeply reported and compelling accounting of a Trump policy that separated migrant children from their parents, leading to abuses that have persisted under the Biden administration.

Last year I guided 45 newsroom teams through a step-by-step process to transform their crime reporting from something harmful into helpful. This year I'm only taking 25 teams and the applications are open. poynter.org/shop/ethics/tran…
