An inspiring must-read from @InaJaffeNPR: npr.org/sections/health-shot…
Ina Jaffe retweeted
Gut-wrenching and hopeful stories from master storyteller @InaJaffeNPR. This is her diagnosis and life too. A must read.
Patients with metastatic breast cancer share how they live on with the diagnosis : Shots - Health News : NPR npr.org/sections/health-shot…

My wife,@InaJaffeNPR, has lived the same year we all have. Hers has been a bit rougher though, what with metastatic cancer taking up residence in three parts of her body. She’s on hiatus from her job as a correspondent. But a writer’s gonna write, y’know? npr.org/sections/health-shot…

Our own @timkmak has a new book out, MISFIRE: INSIDE THE DOWNFALL OF THE NRA. Critic @gabinoiglesias says it "might be the final blow in terms of exposing the organization's rotten core." n.pr/3bvl6BK

Making my 1st film, Roger & Me, I was broke so I wrote to some famous people to ask for help. Only one responded: Ed Asner. “I don’t know you, kid, but here’s 500 bucks” said the note attached to the check. “Sounds like it’ll be a great film. I was an autoworker once.” R.I.P. Ed

How humanitarian
Erik Prince, the American defense contractor, says he is offering people seats on a chartered plane out of Kabul for $6,500 per person.
“It remained unclear whether Mr. Prince had the wherewithal to carry out his plans.” wsj.com/articles/in-kabul-pr…

If you don’t know her, @LeilaFadel is one of @NPR’s best. Has reported with courage and distinction across the US and overseas. Glad she’s co-hosting @MorningEdition with me next week as we follow the Kabul evacuation. If you see her in an airport, tell her thanks for me.
Ina Jaffe retweeted
So proud of my @npr colleagues and their swift, incisive coverage of the rapidly-changing events in Kabul. News editor Nancy Barnes is right: It took a village to stay on the air live and everybody—operations, booking, editors, reporters, analysts—did a great job. #WeMakeNPR.

And just now Kris Bryant’s first hit as a Giant was (all together now!) a Home Run.

Big ups to those doing this and big shame on those who made it necessary.

Congrats to my @npr colleague, @samsanders, for his latest award for excellence in podcasts for “It’s Been a Minute.” Go Sam! t.e2ma.net/click/vydfde/3o7t…
