We made a podcast! Private zoos, indoor shark tanks, exotic trees — what happens when a Georgian billionaire expands his interests to include running the country? podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...

Our director @peterwklein.bsky.social's latest documentary is airing next week on @frontlinepbs.bsky.social! Tune in on Tuesday Sept. 9th for "Scammed." www.pbs.org/video/scamme...

This is Penelope wearing a potholder like a backpack. Anyways, she thinks you should listen to our new podcast: podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t... @globalreportingcentre.org

NEW from me today: Tumbler Ridge is mourning a horrific loss. But how the shooter's identity is being talked about online, and the dangerous links being made to trans people at large, will have resounding and dangerous impacts in the months and weeks to come. xtramagazine.com/power/tumble...

The GRC stands with our journalist colleagues from @thenarwhal.ca and with @amberbracken.bsky.social as they begin their press freedom trial in the B.C. Supreme Court.

Every day we feel lucky to work with journalists like @melissakchan.bsky.social. Please read her latest newsletter for the GRC. And consider a year-end donation to the GRC and help fund our journalism in 2026! globalreportingcentre.org/newsletter/t...

I realize tons of orgs are asking for contributions — but please consider donating to @globalreportingcentre.org. The world is in crisis and yet at this important time, newsrooms are cutting international reporting budgets:

Hundreds of animals are killed by trains on railways in B.C. Now the province says it wants to work with Ottawa to reduce collisions, but both governments say the other is ultimately responsible. @ainsliecruickshank.bsky.social reports: thenarwhal.ca/bc-railway-w...

For months @ainsliecruickshank.bsky.social has been pouring over documents trying to find out how many animals are killed on train tracks in B.C. Companies are supposed to report rail kills but records she obtained found reporting is inconsistent and incomplete projects.thenarwhal.ca/collision-co...

Railway tracks in B.C. sit far from public view, and that’s one reason many people have no idea how often trains kill wildlife. Weak reporting from rail companies keep the scale of these strikes out of sight. Read the latest investigation in @thenarwhal.ca. projects.thenarwhal.ca/collision-co...

📣 Job alert! 📣 The Narwhal is offering a one-year fellowship for an Indigenous journalist in B.C., in collaboration with the Indigenous Journalists Association and IndigiNews. See the post for more details — applications are due Nov. 2. Spread the word! thenarwhal.bamboohr.com/careers/40?s...

I had preeclampsia during my pregnancy. One reminder I got constantly from the nurses, OBs, internal medicine doctors, and maternal fetal medicine doctors was to immediately report a headache that didn’t improve after taking Tylenol. This is lifesaving advice for pregnant people with preeclampsia.

I’m super proud of this guy and everything he does! All while being the best partner, husband, and dad imaginable.

Wow! So proud of the @globalreportingcentre.org team for the two nominations we received for the Digital Publishing Awards. One for our podcast State of Play and another for a long-feature collaboration with @amyromer.bsky.social and @thetyee.ca.

“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?” - A guy walking ahead of me with his friends on a NYC sidewalk in 2021, also my favorite overheard dialogue of the entire pandemic

“We are really trying very, very hard ... to move our world forward" through "foundational, sometimes groundbreaking research, and then you get flagged and blacklisted because there is a word like ‘female’ in your project.” My latest, w/the brilliant Agnel Philip www.propublica.org/article/ted-...

I’m so proud of the work we do at the GRC. Please consider supporting our work so we can continue to bring you important global stories!

Five months captive in Istanbul’s airport: A Sudanese refugee called a Vancouver lawyer from Turkey with an incredible plea for help. Was the U.S. secretly calling the shots? @amyromer.bsky.social reports a migrant’s nightmare.

Fleeing civil war in Sudan, an asylum seeker makes his way from the UAE to Cuba only to find himself stuck in a Kafkaesque nightmare at a transit stop in Turkey — despite having the proper travel documents. bit.ly/4iipMvC

As a new mom I really felt this. Would love to see more investment in beautifully-presented stories like this. It captures this experience — the anxieties, emotions, pressures — in such a unique way.

A trove of documents hidden in a mansion on a British Isle, whistle-blowers willing to go on the record and a family feud worthy of a soap opera: dig into the Jersey Offshore Investigation on the Bribe, Swindle or Steal podcast with Sam Eifling podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

The @globalreportingcentre.org motto is: “Global journalism, done differently” — meaning the process of how we do journalism is as important as the stories we publish. This is why I am really excited to share our new reporting guide: globalreportingcentre.org/empowerment-...

Breaking: a new investigation from @thenarwhalca.bsky.social and the Toronto Star shows developers scooped up 524 more acres of former Greenbelt land over five days in June, spending $173 million. Call it a Greenbelt gold rush. From me, and The Star's Noor Javed and Sheila Wang:

Climate change is threatening global food security. Our @globalreportingcentre.org fellows reported on how Vietnamese rice farmers are adapting to an increasingly unpredictable future. https://news.mongabay.com/2023/07/vietnamese-rice-farmers-go-high-tech-to-anticipate-a-low-water-future/

Unlike you, I get my news from a reliable source.

twitter being basically unusable if you’re not logged in has made it much worse for sharing news/information. I used to send my less online friends and family tweet threads etc. all the time, but now they can’t see it. yet another way that Elon fundamentally misunderstands twitter’s appeal

We all agree Threads is bad, right? My feed is just wall-to-wall TikTok influencers, brands, and meme accounts. All glossed with some sort of aggressive positivity vibe that leaves me deeply unsettled.
