Yesterday: gave feedback to final line edit of my media literacy graphic novel. In it, I wrote about media consolidation demolishing local news. Now: Lyft just passed where I had my first reporting job for a chain of Brooklyn newspapers (circulation 1,000,000). The building's a dollar store now.

Spent a fantastic hour in conversation with @sophiegilbert.bsky.social on C-Span discussing her insightful book, Girl On Girl, charting 1990s-2010 media misogyny. As a media critic I covered much of this at the time, so I'm thrilled she revisited it all for meaning and impact on Millennial women.

Better link to C-Span's After Words, for my conversation with author @sophiegilbert.bsky.social, discussing her insightful new book about media misogyny and its impact on Millennial women: youtu.be/v1XyyF4dmq0?...

What a pleasure to spend an hour in conversation with @theatlantic.com writer @sophiegilbert.bsky.social about her new book, Girl On Girl, an exhaustive revisiting of media treatment of women in the 90s, 2000s, and 2010s, and the implications for Millennial (and all) women. Watch on C-SPAN here:

@goangelo.bsky.social On tight deadline for final line edit of words & art for my media literacy graphic novel, and struck again by how great your interview was. Can't publicly share art yet, but if you want a tiny preview I'll send you one panel where I first introduce you in the disinfo chapter.

Finally got the line edit for my media literacy graphic novel back from the publisher this week. I finished 95% of the writing and did 95% of the panel art instructions a year ago--so excited we're at this point! Also: Finding all final fixes is meticulous, exhausting work. I've done it 3x so far.

Resharing my first 🧵in months for the night folks. Below I explain why I've been mostly off socials, a bit about my lifelong work and how Covid+moral injury have impacted not only my mental health but also my media critic/media literacy ed/media activism...and why I want to come back but need grace.

Ok, #Skyfriends, what's on your mind? I'm tentatively returning to Bsky after a long break (I posted a heavy thread about it earlier), and I'd love to revive the open-ended chats I used to have with you before I took my social media sabbatical.

Long thread, we should allow people to post things that aren't the horrors

The story in this thread is very, very familiar to me, right down to the overlapping national and personal crises.
