Been listening to @serial’s new season about Guantanamo. You should too. Solid work based on a decade of reporting. To me, the latest ep is the most important one. 🧵

There were over 3,000 book bans in U.S. schools last year. That rise is inspired, in part, by the conservative group Moms for Liberty. Sunday, 60 Minutes follows how one conservative school district navigated the book ban debate. 60Minutes.com

please dont pick my brain about the podcast industry- I have no idea what is going on
Scoop: Spotify is canceling two critically acclaimed podcasts -- @heavyweight and Stolen. Stolen won a Pulitzer Prize and Peabody Award for its most recent season while Heavyweight just appeared today on the @nytimes's best podcasts of the year list bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Having a layoff date coming up, it’s been wild to sit back and look at the current media landscape, especially the podcasting landscape. I have some really solid stories to tell, and I keep wondering…. where will I be able to tell them?

To me, the bleakest part about repeated media industry mass layoffs is the fact that many talented people don't have the luxury of returning to the profession.

When we started Bedrock, USA, @QuillianK, @NicFlatow, @samanthastorey and I knew we had a story that had to be heard. But you never know who'll listen. Turns out, some very discerning ears!

Assistant and associate producers are considered "junior" positions at @marketplace yet they're essential to getting shows on air, so much so that they often train people in more "senior" positions. Their wages should reflect the value they bring to the company. @mplaceunion
We heard powerful testimony from some of @Marketplace’s lowest-paid producers during our last bargaining session. They deserve a living wage under our new contract. 🧵Here are some highlights:
