I’m afraid I am one of the casualties. Working w/the team NPR's Short Wave for the past year has been a beautiful dream, and unfortunately now it’s time to wake up. Please do send me your job listings/freelance opportunities. And you should keep listening to the show; I sure will.

Folks with contacts in Gaza: I'm reporting on the food crisis there, looking for on-the-ground perspective from both aid workers and ordinary folks. Please DM me if you feel comfortable sharing info.

Brutal news about the Herald and ominous for all the communities served by Sound Publishing. Standing with all those who lost their jobs today, and those left behind who will no doubt keep showing up, even to a hollowed-out newsroom, in order to inform the public. Everett Herald
