I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

I made a number of trips to Daufuskie Island for this story on coastal erosion and its effects on the island’s tight knit community. Thank you to everyone who shared their story with me!

It's been a week, and the vibes are bleak. Or, in the words of one NIH senior scientist I heard from, "fucking scary." I walked through the whirlwind of NIH-related chaos for @vox.com: www.vox.com/future-perfe...

Researchers are terrified of Trump’s freeze on science. The rest of us should be, too.
Government support is essential to science. The Trump administration kneecapped it.
