Y'all, I'm *so* excited to share this new #digitalwomenleaders site with you. @katiehawk did a tremendous job in leading the redesign & relaunch of digitalwomenleaders.com, which helps women and female-identifying journalists with *free* coaching sessions!
There have been *many* great moments at #ona24 so far — but this is probably the best one I’ve yet witnessed. (That’s Finley getting the belly rub after his very kind owner gave us the OK to say hello. ♥️)

@SlackHQ Any advice on how to get my custom Slack theme to stick? Starting this week, every time I have to re-authenticate my credentials, it resets my theme. It's even happening if I log into Slack on a different device. 😭

Unbelievably cool that @industrydive was named one of @FastCompany's "Most Innovative Companies" for 2024 — #2 on the list for media companies. So proud to be part of this team. fastcompany.com/91041095/med…
Thank you, @FastCompany, for recognizing us as one of the "2024 Most Innovative Companies"! 📣

Is it just me, or does anyone else find the aesthetic of New @SlackHQ (in an apparent attempt to look like Teams ... which begs *so* many questions) actually offensive?

Like so many others, I'm devastated to hear about the shuttering of @BuzzFeedNews + layoffs at @BusinessInsider.
Please reach out if I can help in any way — especially if any of these @industrydive gigs is up your alley. industrydive.com/careers/ope…
NEW @NBCNews: Twitter hasn't removed verified check marks — except from the @nytimes
The NYT's main account, which has 54.9 million followers and is the 19th most-followed Twitter account, appears to have lost the check mark after refusing to pay for it:

In light of the week I've had, I cannot endorse this any harder. I'd only add: morning AND night would be ideal. Your 30s are coming for you, with a vengeance.
Hey twentysomethings. Please stretch in the morning or night. Please take care of your body. I cannot emphasized that enough. Life comes at you fast.

Makes sense considering this is an entirely meaningless feature now.
Scoop: @WhiteHouse won’t pay for @Twitter verification
— It will not enroll in Twitter’s “Verification for Organization” program either
— It also won’t reimburse staff who chose to pay for Twitter Blue either

Noooooooooo. This is so sad.
Raising a glass to all the hands that made Invisibilia. All the creative thoughtful souls who tried for her and cried for her and hopefully - helped some people along the way. npr.org/2023/03/23/116555981…

I have no idea what happened with @SlackHQ this morning, but seems a little dramatic to me. (h/t @natalie_koltun for spotting this.)

🚨 Cool job alert! 🚨 @industrydive is looking for a media-savvy market researcher to join our new launch team to support 12+ new publications we're launching this year. Come work with me! jobs.lever.co/industrydive/d…
I am literally so envious of whoever gets to hire @brittanyhite next. If you're looking for an incredibly talented news product leader, talk to Brittany!
I have experience in product management, operations, project management, digital strategy, editing, running a team, working with engineers. I'm open to anything at the intersection of journalism and technology that doesn't require relocating. Please send any leads my way ❤️

Heartbreaking that this is *still* happening. Thinking of all my friends and former colleagues affected by these decisions.
Gannett will be requiring employees to take one week of unpaid leave in December and is seeking volunteers for buyouts, CEO Mike Reed announced in a staff-wide email Wednesday.
