What has the media, USAT and others, done wrong in covering these events? NYT crawfished on the "no angel" phrase but stood by the overall reporting. Are there specific things you've seen that should, in your opinion, have been handled differently? What about more broad coverage aspects that should be shaped differently? In the linked NYT column, the author of the "no angel" phrase said, "“Hindsight is 20/20." What in your work you do differently today, knowing what you do now, if the events were just starting to unfold?

What's the difference between the flowers at the wholesale and florist stores and the flowers sold at grocery type stores (like Whole Foods quality flowers and not 7-11 quality flowers)?

(2) a lot of the media outlets were quite slanted in their coverage, including the AZ Republic, which is the largest media outlet in a state with few large outlets;

Three questions:

  • What are your favorite or most-used social media tools, and what tools do you see potential in? I'm interested in everything from content-creating tools and apps on your phones to sites you use online and desktop software.
  • I'm always impressed with the overall presentation of WaPo content, and it's clear to me as a consumer y'all must have great internal collaboration and work across teams. What challenges do y'all face in working in such a large organization when trying to have such a cohesive and polished result, and how do y'all overcome those roadblocks?
  • Social media is a constantly changing and evolving landscape. How do y'all stay on top of new tools, features and platforms? How do you decide when a platform is one on which WaPo should have an active presence?

Thanks for taking the time to do this! I appreciate all y'all're doing.

And, y'all should give /u/twpinoy a raise. He's crushing it.

How much music do you have recorded around that's not slated for public release? Annnd, since it's an AMA... Any chance we could get one of those songs?

I remember you surprise releasing a few tracks, like Lemon, Balm & Chamomile. You've always been great at engaging with fans online — from surprise release and sneak-peek listening parties to all you're doing on social, it's a really cool way to stay connected with an artist whose work we enjoy
