So @elonmusk - tell us your theory. The feds did this shooting to spark outrage at white nationalists and launch a gun crackdown? That what you’re hinting at?

Here is a list of BuzzFeed News reporters, editors, and talent that you should follow (and if this applies to you... hire): x.com/i/lists/164917…
worth noting that layoffs are especially bad for junior staff, journalists of color, and anyone on a work visa who has 60 days from their last day of employment to find a new job or they have to leave the US
I can’t even keep up with the churn of shutdowns/layoffs. I’m so sorry for the amazing reporters, writers, editors, & other incredible folks impacted—and sorry for the stories that will go untold as this industry continues pulling resources from people who actually do the work.
Horrible: BuzzFeed News is shutting down
Flavio Diaz, a student at DePaul said that ending Erika Sanchez's contract as the university tries to become a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) shows the “hypocrisy” behind the its values rooted in diversity, equity and inclusion. By @jackiecardenas_ depauliaonline.com/63908/news/the…
Last week @TheDePaulia published a story on DePaul’s budget gap crisis. Since then we have seen newspapers confiscated and front pages torn around campus. No worries though, I fixed one of the stands. Destroying newspapers is a form of censorship.
not yall apparently
Congratulations to my great friend @naddivz on becoming @TheDePaulia's editor-in-chief. It's the first time in history we have two Latina journalists heading DePaul's student publications. @LaDePaulia I'm excited to see all the great things you do!
At a time when many companies in Hollywood are making huge cuts, a new report is once again warning them that diversity in front of and behind the camera is essential to the industry’s survival. huffpost.com/entry/ucla-hol…
“Brandon Johnson is someone that understands that Latinos and the Black community have to be working together, that when we talk about ‘Black Lives Matter,’ we’re also talking about, ‘No human being is illegal.’” huffpost.com/entry/chicago-…
In a country so obsessed with gazing at famous female abdomens that tabloid magazines have sold issues with features like “Bump Watch,” we’re all too eager to win the game of knowing before an official announcement is made. huffpost.com/entry/rihanna-…
Rihanna announcing her pregnancy was not on my #SuperBowlLVII bingo card, but I am SO here for it.

Happy National Journalist Day (in Puerto Rico)! Sending congratulations to my fellow reporters on the island. Local Spanish-language journalism has played a crucial role in shaping the reporter I am today, and I am grateful for the opportunity to give back as a professor there.

This is Strawberry. She was almost euthanized in a shelter because of the bump on her noggin. Fortunately it was revealed to be harmless scar tissue from an old injury. Her unique appearance helped her get the attention of a forever family, who love her just the way she is. 14/10
I’m going to send this to @RomeoSantosPage in hopes of getting him to come on 12 News at 11. 😁🤪 @GerronJordan
As I mourn the end of a newsroom I've loved, I'd like to share some of the stories I'm most proud of from my 8+ years at BuzzFeed News, where I did my best to illuminate the experiences of marginalized communities & hold powerful wrongdoers accountable.
