some news: @propublica has decided to stop funding Trump, Inc. so @WNYC won't renew my contract. I will be unemployed at the end of June.
to be clear-- the show is still continuing to be made, my position is the only one being cut.
Some reporting and producing work I'm proud of: I got obsessed with a far right convention happening at the president's resort, so I pitched a reporting trip, went by myself and made this story with @mattkatz00 https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/trumpinc/episodes/trump-inc-all-presidents-memes
I found out Rudy Giuliani had a live radio show and podcast so I listened to it for hours and hours. While cooking and cleaning, doing yoga, sewing-- all Rudy all the time: https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-inc-podcast-2020-giuliani-podcast
I traveled to Doral with @anjalitsui and reported on a payday lender's convention-- we were kicked out of so many places we lost count. I called countless event planners to get an estimate of how much the event cost: https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-inc-podcast-payday-lenders-spent-1-million-at-a-trump-resort-and-cashed-in
I helped @peterelkind report this story by calling so many Trump properties and local non-profits to discover that the Trumps have done no charity work related to COVID-19 https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-congratulates-businesses-for-helping-fight-coronavirus-but-his-own-company-has-been-absent
While at @NancyPodcast I made the Queer Money Matters series along with @IsabelAngell_ @tobinlow @_kathytu
Before the Apprentice was available online, I found a nearly complete archive of the show. I love the challenge of looking for impossible find tape.
I don't have the numbers on hand, but since I began writing our newsletter we've gotten thousands more subscribers and very high engagement. I love collaborating across teams to do audience work.
I love mentoring interns and building connections across teams-- I know those are buzzwords but I take them seriously.
I want to continue reporting and producing around misinformation, the far right, and the way conspiracy theories are poisoning our ability to communicate as a country.
When @AndreaWNYC was working on her book she challenged me to find every interview Ivanka Trump has ever given. I can't say for sure, but I think I got most of it
