I've started this thread over and over again, trying to put into words what I've seen in 2020 through my work at Chalkbeat because I feel like some people still don't get it.
But I think it's better to show you.

I've seen a virus that was ugly from the outset in more ways than one. chalkbeat.org/2020/3/12/2117…
I've seen my team pull off an impossible collaboration that told the stories — your stories — of a day without school. A preview of only what was yet to come. chalkbeat.org/2020/3/17/2119…
What the fuck. Jacksonville is losing its alt-weekly. I am very sorry to see this.
So a city of about 1 million people - the largest city by area in the contiguous U.S. - has no alt-weekly (which has played an important role in the local journalism ecosystem) and one newspaper greatly diminished in staff - with about a dozen reporters and two photographers.
Happy #givingnewsday or whatever.
Happy #GivingNewsDay y'all.

1/ On this #GivingTuesday (or #GivingNewsDay), we’ll let our members do the talking. Why? Simply put: They’re the best. Their support has gotten us to 10 years. Today, we’re hoping you’ll join us for our next decade of nonprofit, nonpartisan news. trib.it/Gm4

@NewsMatch 3/ Holding elected officials accountable is our top job. Like Anthony said, and as anyone who's ever met him knows, @evanasmith does not allow half steps. That's why we always say what we mean — and mean what we say, especially on #GivingTuesday Join us: trib.it/Gm4
1/ Our investigations this year have exposed modern-day redlining, indentured servitude in rehabs, migrant kids being drugged and more (below 👇👇).

2/ @eman_thedataman and @Aaron_Glantz’s reporting on modern-day redlining spurred investigations and put the new Fed Chair in the hot seat. revealnews.org/article/for-pe…
3/ When @cynduja asked tech’s heavy hitters for their raw diversity numbers, some claimed the data was proprietary.

1/ In celebration of #GivingNewsDay — a shoutout to our current ProPublica donors. You all make it possible for us to do the kind of reporting that rights wrongs: propub.li/2DXSAdf

2/ In June, we published audio of children who’d just been separated from their parents. Within days, President Donald Trump signed an executive order reversing his policy of family separations at the border.

3/ BTW, we are NOT done investigating family separations. @ProPublicaIL looked at the 99 immigrant children being held in the Chicagoland area, and @gingerthomp1 continues to follow the story. propub.li/2Axn7tY
