At @wearekinzen I've been fielding a few questions this week from platform partners on how to monitor extremism on fringe platforms. Top of mind is safety. So I pulled together a short guide: kinzen.com/blog/staying-safe…
Thoughts and additions welcome.

"Rosen predicts that the future belongs to 'engagement journalism' that is 'audience-first and public-powered.' We could not agree more."
Same here! Great read on how @thetyee incorporated @jayrosen_nyu's citizens agenda model for election coverage: thetyee.ca/Tyeenews/2019/12/…

I’ve done a little reporting for @nytimes ... I’ve been reported on in @nytimes ... but most exciting I’ve helped change @nytimes

I know it’s still seen as unbecoming for women to puff their professional feathers but fuck it. I’m proud.

I am so proud of @elvialimon who was just named the @dallasnews’ Digital Innovator of the Year for her work with #CuriousTexas at our annual Journalists of the Year awards.
I love being Elvia’s editor and I cannot say enough about her work for readers in North Texas.

“... listening is becoming an increasingly rare skill, you’ll be a standout if you make the effort.” Hear that, newsroom staff? How to Be a Better Listener nyti.ms/2He1HHw?smid=nytcore…

What makes @FSTGrowth and @wearehearken a great partnership is that neither is pretending that what they’re doing, now or in the future, is easy. It’s difficult, important work and the media industry will be better for them working together link.medium.com/nu9hSmqZMT

It’s the honor of a lifetime to build @switchboardHQ as @JenniferBrandel has built @wearehearken and, in the process, find enlightened investors like @FSTGrowth. Cheer this amazing Zebra deal (& cringe at what Jenn went through). Let’s bring this visionary thinking to the US.
Hearken is expanding to Europe with a Denmark office! Here’s the backstory + an interview with our “Zebra” investor medium.com/we-are-hearken/de…

No words. I not only found an incredible investor and business partner for @wearehearken, but he supports the way we want to grow, and demonstrates it. Thank you @FSTGrowth. Can’t wait to build this #zebra company together.
