Asking this seriously: has Bari Weiss ever in her career reported out an investigative story?

"Get the principals on camera" is such a telling phrase here, because it tells us that for Weiss there's no world in which the victims of these horrific actions can actually be seen as the subjects of the story: They're background noise, and the people who matter are the ones sending them.
Weiss concluded: “We need to be able to make every effort to get the principals on the record and on camera. To me, our viewers come first, not a listing schedule or anything else. And that is my North Star, and I hope it's the North Star of every person in this newsroom.”

There isn't a bigger anti-establishment, fuck-the-man pursuit than skateboarding. Yet even that industry has succumbed to private equity, destroying leading brands and the relationships that kept the scene thriving, cool, and local. I look at a new report on this cursed financialization:
Private Equity Ripped the Heart Out of Skateboarding
Multiple buyouts and bankruptcies have ruined iconic brands and hollowed out skateboarding culture. It’s our financialized economy in miniature.

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.
I will never, ever vote for Gavin Newsom. Ever, under any circumstances. I don't care if he becomes the Dem nominee, he's still not getting my vote.
On a recent podcast Gavin Newsom tells Shawn Ryan how the Trans sports issue opened the door for him to change his mind on GAC for Trans Youth.
As someone who adored him since 2004 and voted for him 5 times, I can't wait for him to leave office.
There is no way I will be voting for him a 6th time.

You are not a "pessimist" or "cynic" if you look at the state of modern tech and find yourself disgusted. Conversely, being defensive of OpenAI or Anthropic doesn't make you an optimist - it makes you a propagandist working for the powerful.
