🧵 6 years ago today, a man armed with a shotgun entered the @capgaznews newsroom in Annapolis, MD, and shot multiple journalists, media workers.
5 people were killed in the attack, and 2 others were injured.
It was the deadliest single attack on journalists in U.S. history.

“LOCAL JOURNALISM IS FOUNDATIONAL TO DEMOCRACY. IT IS A PUBLIC SERVICE AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH. ALL REPORTERS DESERVE THE SUPPORT OF THEIR COMMUNITIES, AS WELL AS A FAIR LIVING WAGE.”

My coworker @nourhb & I held a small vigil to honor those being killed.
As the Committee to Protect Journalists @pressfreedom says “During any conflict, journalists are civilians under international humanitarian law. They must be respected and protected.”

Charlottesville’s Robert E. Lee statue has met its end, in a 2,250-degree furnace.
The divisive Confederate monument, the focus of the deadly “Unite the Right” rally in 2017, was secretly melted down and will become a new piece of public art.

Joe Garcia just called me from prison. I read him some of the reactions to his unforgettable @newyorker essay about Taylor Swift.
He was surprised and happy. “I wish I could see the response in real time,” he said. (1/2) newyorker.com/culture/the-we…
