Proud of the work I did with Samantha Melamed and dylancpurcell.bsky.social on the fifth installment of The Probation Trap. Photos by jessicagriffin, and @sgpotts crafted an incredible page layout. inquirer.com/news/inq/proba…

Philly is so small... Out of all the streets and blocks in this city, somehow one tiny block has become a focus of TWO unrelated I-team stories. One by me dylancpurcell.bsky.social Chris A. Williams and the other by Craig R. McCoy Jacob Adelman

If Philly gave you a property for $1 would you... A. Not pay the taxes B. Let it fill with trash and weeds C All of the above We found too many owners of these properties aren’t doing their fair share to return the city’s favor. w/@InqCVargas Chris A. Williams inquirer.com/news/philadelp…

I’ve learned not to rage email, and by extension, I do not rage tweet (or tweet much at all). Accordingly, I’ve waited a full 24 hours to calmly tweet that this headline from The Philadelphia Inquirer is why Black people find it difficult, AT BEST, to trust the news. Do better. DO BETTER.

I looked through the data on businesses that got paycheck protection dollars, and found that 19 groups registered to lobby the PA govt received millions. Firms that primarily lobby aren’t supposed to get PPP money. But it turns out, there’s a big caveat. whyy.org/articles/milli…

ā€œWe have a system that looks broken to people." PA's expanding who's eligible & its distribution pace is better than most. But public frustration remains. Erin McCarthy & I talked to 50 people about the state's communication and the public's perception: inquirer.com/news/pennsylva…

COVID-19 cases are down overall in the U.S., but on average cases down more in states with a higher vaccination rate. Data via The New York Times and Our World in Data datawrapper.de/_/tGOm5/

There is now a 2:1 difference in the vaccination rate of the top 6 counties in Pennsylvania compared to the bottom 3. datawrapper.de/_/e2RA9/

Quick calculus review: this graph shows the rate of change in COVID-19 cases, now higher since last April. Cases are rising when the line is above zero, falling when below. The line crossing zero from + to - represents peaks in cases.

Speculators are buying tickets in hopes of flipping them for a profit. My investigation with Juliana Feliciano Reyes went live today, with tips on how to avoid resellers when possible. Hat tip to Reveal and Byard Duncan for their great Ticket Trap episode. inquirer.com/news/tickets-p…

Haven't verified, looks accurate. Assuming no ties and all 32 outcomes equally likely, the Eagles have a: * 63% chance first round against Bucs (75% if Birds win, %50 if lose) * 6% chance of playing the Cowboys (same chance of DAL getting #2 seed) * 31% play NFC West champ

Great analysis about the new MLB playoff format and the tough road ahead for the Phillies. "[J]ust to get to the NLCS, the Phillies would have to survive a stretch of 16 road games in 17 days between Sept. 26 and Oct. 12." Subscribers only and worth it. inquirer.com/phillies/zack-…
