This seems like a good time to resurface this: The last letter Billy Wardlow sent me before his execution, thanking me for my reporting.

I wish he could have seen the story about him & his D&D world get the recognition it did today from The Pulitzer Prizes.

I spoke with two of the Daily Bruin reporters who were attacked early this morning while doing their jobs. Without question, they said they will continue covering the unrest on their campus and serving their community.

I wrote a love letter to journalism in the wake of the mass layoffs: huffpost.com/entry/la-times…

I’d been told I was safe, but turns out LA Times management screwed up their own layoff process and decided to send more notices. Got a call from HR last night that I'm being let go.

I'm in a daze. My mind keeps going back to this piece I filmed. The tripod weighing me down, but hungry for more. This is my Los Angeles. And this is my love letter to you.

We are so thankful for the solidarity shown to us during this historic work stoppage. ✊
