Longtime journalist. Fan of books, shelter dogs, beautiful hikes that don't hurt my knees, hotels with cozy robes, kindness. Midwest is best.
@robertchannick.bsky.social talked with Fire owner Joe Mansueto about his hopes for soccer in Chicago, and why he thinks teams should foot the bill for new stadiums, not taxpayers.
The Chicago Fire are planning a privately financed $650 million soccer stadium at the mostly vacant 62-acre site along the Chicago River at Roosevelt Road.

Kudos to the Sun-Times for thoroughly reviewing this special section and reporting what was fabricated.

I've had many great encounters with national park rangers and educators. People who took the time to talk to me about sea otters on the California coast and beautiful birds in Acadia National Park and helped me when I was horribly lost in the Rockies and was feeling a bit panicky.

Frigid days like this always remind me of my friend from San Diego who was moving to Chicago and said, "So, I can just wear socks with my Birkenstocks and be fine, right?" Oh, my sweet summer child.

Nuns get stuff done.
The nuns met in the 1960s and were united in their advocacy for social justice. They have won awards, been arrested, been told no and successfully pushed for legislative reform. Now in their 90s, they have no plans of slowing down. A classic @nellsalzman.bsky.social story. Gift link here.
In their 90s, Sisters of Mercy have spent their lives fighting for immigrant justice. And they’re not stopping now.
Sister JoAnn Persch and Sister Pat Murphy have devoted their lives advocating for local and federal immigration legislation to fix a broken system.

I vividly remember when the CueCat was unveiled in the newsroom where I was working at the time. So much bewilderment and confusion.
This, courtesy of the owner of the LA Times, is the worst “tech solution for journalism” idea since the CueCat.
