Bigotry. Anti-science. Warped religion. These are some parts of #FarRight extremism, & they've called #Tennessee home.

Twitter is becoming more and hostile toward journalism and journalists.
For at least a little while, I'm not going to post here on Twitter at all.
If you want to continue to get my day-to-day reporting as well as my next story, follow me on Threads:

I've said this before, and I'll say it again:
"Citizen journalism" does NOT exist. AT ALL.
We who are actually journalists are trained. We spend years learning and honing hard and soft skills -- like news judgement, how to deal with sources & information -- as well as ethics.
Citizen journalism is the path to better future!
I strongly encourage people around the world to post news about events as they’re happening, in both text & video.
