@whathappenedonx People ARE scared. Scared that it could happen because it’s now allowed to happen. Letting people share their fears isnt bad journalism. But focusing on one part of a story is being a selective listener.

I felt that one! Did you? @USGS_Quakes is listing it as a 5.1 out of Malibu. Is everyone ok? @kcalnews

I just read this article by @kbaxter11 ! Phenomenal read about the last to finish in the Olympics this year. Last event, last runner… but still a winner. So heart warming!
“The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part.” Final finisher of women's marathon shows what it means to be an Olympian @paris2024

@DanielMorain Sorry new “not twitter” guidelines don’t allow me to DM you. But I’m working on a story on Kamala Harris tonight. Can you email me a good contact. JJBenedict@cbs.com I was hoping you’d have time for a quick interview.

Everyone makes fun of me because I write all my scripts in the “notes” app on my iPhone. Co workers secretly laugh as I type everything with my right thumb and left forefinger. Hmmm… my workflow has been undisturbed. #justsaying 😈😈

@DwightHoward @DGreen_14 Yes. And that’s the point. LA is so big— that you can drive around all the celebrations and many people (non-sports fans) don’t even know it’s going on. You can’t avoid it in the cities like Boston & Philly. LAs sports fans are just a piece of the pie.

I’m so sad to hear about this! Sam was a talented broadcaster. I got to know him through his work @sagaftra . He was elected to represent all broadcasters on the Los Angeles Board. My heart goes out to his loved ones and TV family at @KTLA ❤️
KTLA 5 is profoundly saddened to report the death of Sam Rubin. Sam was a giant in the local news industry and the entertainment world, and a fixture of Los Angeles morning television for decades. His laugh, charm and caring personality touched all who knew him. Sam was a loving husband and father: the roles he cherished the most. Our thoughts are with Sam’s family during this difficult time.

I just love that someone at the bar watching NCAA MENS basketball shouted out: “dang! What was that? That’s Caitlin Clark range” #changethegame @AlabamaMBB
