- I'm delighted The Harvard Plan won first prize for narrative podcast from the @wearesfj.bsky.social. The Harvard Plan was reported and hosted by @ilyamarritz.bsky.social and was a perfect partnership between @bostonglobe.com and @onthemedia.bsky.social.
- Judges comments: "This story cuts past the programmatic prestige and idol worship of one of our great educational institutions to remind us that glory is sometimes built on the shame of poor decisions. The tone and mood are spot on, while the reporting feels fresh, even as it recounts history...
- the series feels supremely objective – a quality we shouldn’t be surprised about, but too often are. Of course, there’s a zeitgeist that this series taps into, but listening to it months later, it’s easy to understand how it also presaged some current issues, which could become the series’ future."
- Such a great interview.

- Now is a good time to listen to The Harvard Plan, the Globe’s co-production with On The Media. The series is hosted and reported by @ilyamarritz.bsky.social. Published in December, it was beyond prescient. www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm...

- Reposted by Kristin NelsonOur new podcast begins on the docks of a Massachusetts city. It involves a rogue cop. A demand for drugs. A phrase he'd used again and again: “confidential informant.” This secretive system in policing has a dark underside. We found it in New Bedford.
