An exciting moment for all of us working to advance the cause of non-partisan, independent, sustainable local news! I'm looking forward to these catalytic investments sparking even more local support for local newsrooms everywhere. niemanreports.org/articles/press… via @NiemanReports
A truly unbelievable, unforgettable, indescribably joyful night! My daughters and I all cried, more than once! Thank you @taylorswift13 ! ☔️🎶🎤💗💃🏽 🥲🌧️💧
Last night we all danced together in the rain for THE ENTIRE 3.5 HOUR SHOW in foxy Foxborough MA!! We’ve had rain shows at Gillette Stadium before but this was a full on deluge that never let up, I just want to thank that iconic crowd!! Love you so much you have no idea 💕🥰🥲
