During the incident, CN's HR chief asked staff not to congregate outside his office. Lahut asked "what's your definition of congregating?" and was let go later on Wednesday.

- You might have missed it with everything going on, but here's the latest on TikTok (there's a lot!) www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...
- From my new piece re: Calley Means. I went to a private dinner the night of Kennedy's confirmation & Del Bigtree said this (below). It's such a clear acknowledgement of the role food activism played/plays in MAHA, smoothing out the rough edges of anti-vax activism. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

- For this week’s issue I profiled Jessica Reed Kraus, aka House Inhabit, the gossip blogger of MAHA/MAGA whose rise could only happen in the fractured media landscape of our strange times. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
- Just a reminder that I'm chatting with Nate and Galen in NYC on Sept 29. I'm sure there will be LOTS to discuss. bsky.app/profile/clar...

- 🎧 I'm guest hosting our politics podcast and the first episode is out! I talked with Lis Smith about the Democrats' demographic and identity crisis. 🎧 www.newyorker.com/podcast/poli...
- This is for a niche audience but I feel like there's a 30 percent chance that, given today's news, in about fifteen years,Taylor and Travis are just really involved Hawken sports parents. www.realtor.com/news/celebri...

- My sliding doors moment is almost taking a job at Elle in 2012. Close enough?
- SpinCo cake pop?
- If you live in NYC, particularly Brooklyn in/near Flatbush, please spread the word about Xavier Williams, a sixteen year old with autism who has been missing since Wednesday.
- Yes, Bezos ended the Washington Post’s endorsement tradition & is changing the Opinion pages, but there’s more to what’s going on with him, and to what’s happening inside one of the country’s most important news organizations. My story: www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
- Congrats to @michaelluo.bsky.social! So excited to read this book—a little more about it in this Times review. nytimes.com/2025/04/29/b...
- I just listened to a gaggle of schoolchildren sing “Fifty Nifty United States” on a subway platform which is every bit as heartwarming as it sounds.
- Ok, I have to admit, this is cool & has never happened to me: I got nominated for an award for three of my pieces on media from last year. A year when nothing at all was going on in media. Nothing at all. Anyhow, very flattering and thank you, Newhouse School! newhouse.syracuse.edu/news/newhous...

- Amazing correction on WaPo writeup of Graydon Carter's book party.
- Why is everyone all of a sudden saying “steel-manning”? This has to be a Bluesky thing.
- I did a persons-of-interest piece on Kat a couple of years ago, when her job was still watching Tucker Carlson "so you don't have to." www.newyorker.com/news/annals-... bsky.app/profile/roll...
- “Right now, the answer to authoritarianism isn’t to be quiet." - @katmabu.bsky.social Exclusive interview ⤵️
- This almost reads like a Gawker item from the 2010s but...it is very much not www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
- Nate is brutally honest here when he says hindsight being 20/20, he would have never started FiveThirtyEight as a standalone pod. It's interesting to cover this industry as it balkanizes and to have been at a site that was sort of wrong place/wrong time. bsky.app/profile/gale...
- I hosted the New Yorker Radio Hour this week, and talked to @kaitlancollins.bsky.social about what it’s like covering the Trump White House this time around. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

- Reply-all emails really having their moment in the sun lately.
- My friend @galendruke.bsky.social has a new Substack post out with some fun pics/memories of the OG 538 years. Podding in Nate's office! I remember being shocked when someone at a party said they listened. A nice walk down memory lane. Subscribe! gdpolitics.com
- 538 closing is a very sad end to a place that was always misunderstood by the companies that owned it. There are lots of smart people there who should be snapped up. Reach out!
- CBS Sunday Morning did a segment on @newyorker.com for the 100th anniversary featuring the person who knows all the magazine's gossip from the past 45 years, Bruce Diones. And there were also some other people in it, too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcTr...

- Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, now questioning Kennedy, is old friends with the nominee, from law school. “You frighten people,” he says to Kennedy.
- This is an important fact check. It demonstrates the ways that Kennedy tries to wriggle out of his many on the record statements. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

- RFK Jr's confirmation hearing is today. Here's what he could do as the head of HHS. www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...
- Here is a rather vivid paragraph from Caroline Kennedy’s statement to senators, pleading with them not to confirm her cousin, Bobby Kennedy, as HHS secretary.
- Psa if you live in nyc and either moved here post pandemic or forgot everything about how to ride the subway in the past few years: take your backpack off when you get on the train. (this is where I can bitch about parochial things like it’s 2018 or something, right?)
