Twenty years ago, federal prosecutors could have put Jeffrey Epstein away for life. Instead, they played politics. Let's not repeat history. jkbjournalist.substack.com/p…

I did not do the Jeffrey Epstein investigation alone. I had the support of @MiamiHerald —it’s then executive editor, Mindy Marques; and these two incredible journalists, investigations editor Casey Frank and visual journalist Emily Michot. Thank you to all the courageous victims who shared their stories with me, and to those on the Pulitzer Board who made this honor of a lifetime happen. #pulitzerprizes

Unbelievable. Another Epstein-whistleblower suicide.
Simon has been found dead, reportedly from "suicide." RIP to Simon and to all whistleblowers who have died too young. The truth about Lutnick will never die

34 years ago, I took this photo as Miami Metrozoo prepared for the arrival of Hurricane Andrew. Little did I know that it would become an iconic image of one of the greatest natural disasters in U.S. history. #hurricaneflamingos #hurricaneandrew #nikonusa #nikonambassador

34 YEARS AGO TODAY, Hurricane Andrew was bearing down on the Bahamas and South Florida. It was a beautiful summer day in Miami with a nice breeze. Everybody was in motion... wondering what was going to happen that night. I said on TV, "...nothing will look the same" in the morning. More at HurricaneIntel.com

Gazan journalists read the names of 197 of their colleagues killed by Israel over the past two years. We honor and remember each of these individual protectors of truth, and call on the international community to protect the journalists who continue to bravely do their jobs.

A hall of fame class of journalists is leaving @AP today — 40 reporters and photo/videographers who've taken buyouts as our US news operation shrinks. They've broken untold stories, captured searing images, held power to account and made us all smarter. We'll miss them dearly.
