when i was there, i helped found and run the group for disabled folks in the org. it was one of the best things i ever did at The Post and i think it was for a lot of other folks. i miss it so, so much and am sad those brilliant folks lost their jobs today.

also laid off at The Post today include the two wonderful people behind the organization's inclusion networks (groups they let employees setup and run for folks to interact more with folks like them around the org).

i don't have much to add that hasn't already been said but if you think going after journalists will convince other journalists to slow down or stop their reporting, you don't know journalists
