Thank you so much Dan!

In May, when I gave the commencement address to the University of Rochester's Anthropology department, I ended with:

"Believe in whatever it was that got you to today, and remember why you started."

It's time to take my own advice and set the example I want to be.

Let the great experiment begin!

I'm trying something new and making my first go at the freelance life. I want to tell a lot of stories in a lot of different ways. I'm available for:

Writing
Reporting
Editing
Teaching
Photography
Videography
Documentaries
Music

And down to try new things, too.

So, let's talk. Let's collaborate.

This week I decided to leave CBS News.

CBS is a place I loved so much that, after leaving for The New York Times, I returned in 2023 for a new role that had been created for me. But it's becoming a different place now. And I realized now is the time to pursue an independent path. (1/3)

No Excuses!, by Jaysun Silver 10 track album

New release I mixed/mastered for Brooklyn artist Jaysun Silver. A true DIY juggernaut album - ten songs that all clock in at under 20 minutes. It's raw, it's punk, it's spiky. Recorded and produced by my good friend Stanley John Mitchell (of the Drongos).

"You always got to be prepared, but you never know for what"

The chair of the Iowa Democratic Party Black Caucus tell me "the fate of democracy itself" is at stake in the 2024 election, citing Donald Trump's comment about being a dictator only "on day one":

"Once he gets a taste of that potato chip, he's gonna want to eat the whole bowl."

I embedded an experiment in latest survey to test effect of attributing the "poisoning the blood" language to Trump...

GOP voters inclined to agree with language to begin with, and attributing it to Trump just increases their acceptance, especially among MAGA

Frank Luntz, veteran pollster and longtime Republican consultant, told me that that he'd bet on Donald Trump winning the 2024 election. “The guy's a survivor," Luntz said in Des Moines after the final GOP debate before the Iowa caucuses. www.tiktok.com/@cbsnews/vid...

Ron DeSantis campaign volunteers in Iowa told me why they would not support Donald Trump even if he became the Republican presidential nominee: "Am I willing to vote for a guy who's likely to be a convicted felon? I can't do that." www.tiktok.com/@cbsnews/vid...
