San Francisco and Oakland feel more different during this tech boom than during either previous one. Why? I attempted an answer for the great, new Oakland Review of Books: oaklandreviewofbooks.org/the…

The great vibes divergence

Why does San Francisco feel so weird during this tech boom while Oakland is more or less still Oakland?

In my cover story for @Harpers, I crisscrossed the Great Plains to see how Dems and Independents are reviving the progressive populism that once defined the region. Believe it or not, but the Blue Wave looks poised to crash over Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa harpers.org/archive/2026/10/…

Michelle was the best professor I had at UM and made sports in Miami a better, more vibrant place. There is no reason to have a media company if you don't want to employ people like Michelle. The Herald used to tell the story of Miami, now it doesn't tell you anything. Shame.

Replying to @BenMullin
Feel free to call for comment if you ever want the facts that I am able to share. Of course I wouldn’t comment on specific performance issues around a particular reporter but there are no layoffs.

We read @DylanByers piece on some recent goings-on at @wsj and decided it could benefit from the kind of fact-checking that we here at the Journal take very seriously. Fair and accurate, that's our style! Let's take a look: 🧵
