So proud of you!!!
Feel honored and grateful to be recognised by @Reuters as the Reporter of the Year. It’s especially meaningful for us Chinese journalists working in mainland where we face one of the most difficult journalism environments in the world.

Seriously!
With Twitter’s demise apparently impending, I’d urge people to consider moving to Sina Weibo, where you can enjoy a safe space for political innuendo under the benevolent eye of China’s social media administrators. No hate, no insanity, just… social harmony.

RIP Phil. Will always remember your kindness during my most difficult time.
We remember with gratitude the work of journalist and 1985 Nieman Fellow Philip J. Hilts. He broke the @nytimes story of how the tobacco industry covered-up research showing nicotine is harmful/addictive. He also served as @KSJatMIT director 2008-2014. nieman.harvard.edu/news/2022…

Never been so excited to become a "candidate". Can't be more grateful to everyone supporting me along the way, especially my fabulous committee!

In remembrance of a teary moment today: I feel so lucky that there had been several occasions in my career when I was totally smitten by someone I work with - not by their fame or status, just pure professionalism, kindness, and virtue they exemplified.

Maybe the only reason I am not drowned by cynicism after all these years was those moments when I would tell myself to get it together and try to become someone like that.

What a great (virtual) journey!
📢 Out now: the #GGF2035 scenario reports! Over the last 1.5 years, 27 fellows from 9 countries engaged in a thought experiment to jointly imagine the future of climate-related conflicts, media & information, and the politics of inequality. What could the 🌍 look like by 2035?

Today is #AutismAwarenessDay. At the age of 12 I was diagnosed with Asperger, a form of autism. At that time I had no idea what it meant. When I and my parents told people I was autistic, they always reacted with shock since I didn’t fit into the stereotype of autistic people.1/7
