Personally, I’d love to see all outlets hire more photojournalists 😉.
But this isn’t any fault of the strib. Only 1 still and 1 video journo is allowed in the rm during Supreme Court sessions. Yesterday was just my turn to provide pool pics for the outlets.

Always a privilege to share photos of the artists and community members that make my corner of the city so special.

And finally, just to be clear, Tom the turkey did *not* receive a pardon yesterday. Minnesota, apparently, doesn't partake in that tradition.
He's back in Hutchinson, Minn., with his owner Paisley VonBerge (center, first photo) to be processed for Thanksgiving dinner for her family.
Godspeed, Tom.
