Yoooo! On the heels of a company shutdown, we launched @TheRecordNS -- our idea of what local news should be. We (@mcarlino27, @meganbernard_) are proud of the work we've done every day since. Thank you @headlineclub for recognizing the efforts with a Lisagor nom.

SO MANY THANKS to @maudlynei for entrusting me with this role. I have incredibly large shoes to fill & am so grateful for all that she has taught me along the way. Another big thank you to @RobertFeder for sharing the news of the start of this new CJA chapter.

After some personal disruption, I'm getting back in the @Media_Curious saddle again, as it were. I'm preparing my interview w/ WBEZ's Michael Puente/@MikePuenteNews. What do y'all think I should ask him about?
