I couldn't be more excited to have my photos and videos from the recent NYT story on Alzheimer's research featured on this weekend's PBS Newshour broadcast. There was a six minute segment on the story with an interview with writer Pam Belluck. Here's a screenshot of the intro. The rest can be seen on my website or youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMa1cdahkcA

I've been a long-time fan of PBS Newshour, and I think this is the first time my photos have been on the national broadcast. So glad to see this story getting some additional attention!

‘Monday Night Football’ #TVsports doubleheaders to end as the real brawl moves behind closed doors...

#NationalFootballLeague owners have approved taking 10% ownership of #ESPN by selling entire #NFLnetwork broadcast arm to #Disney; which will require entering labyrinth of #Gov regulatory approval and potential of #KingDrumpf putting his thumb on the scales to get his piece.

Back in the 1980s #Drumpf was infamously blocked from owning an #NFL franchise and he has seldom shirked since from attacking league or #MickeyMouse, it is almost a certainty the angry 😡 range troll will seek his #FartOfTheDeal revenge, and place a heavy thumb on the scale in his second term as the nation's #ChiefExecutive

Said a corporate PR stooge of the process "We're going to cooperate, we're going to partner,"

The NFL is the #USA #TVRatings king, whose team's contests comprise 72 of the top 100 most-watched #streaming and #cable television programs each year, with only #Prresidential #Debates taking a chunk out of their top 10 most watched live programs.

That sounds dire ... Who does one lease #billboards from in the US? Surely not mainstream or legacy media? (I'm thinking of that film 'Three billboards' in which billboards were the broadcast media of choice...)

Another thought: sky pilots. They can cover a lot of territory & surely no one vets what they're going to write? Or do they?

(I'm an Australian so please excuse my ignorant questions.)
