    Nice. SF Chron Ed Page Editor on taking Ishmael Reed's class at Berkeley in '95. "In Reed’s poetry class, a premium was put on originality and the ganging of words in ways that evoked meaning beyond the literal."

    The case for a 9/11-style commission: "Those who saved lives, and those who lost loved ones, deserve to know that the U.S. government is doing everything possible to assess what happened and to reduce the chances of it ever happening again."

    Days after The Chronicle reported an aircraft carrier's captain's pleas for help for his sailors succumbing to coronavirus, the Navy fired him. That's a pretty scary message being sent to all our military officers.

    please, Mr President, make room at the table for all American leaders, not just those you like. FDR, Churchill and Stalin had differences but a common enemy. This is not jr high. History honors big men

    This is 1000 percent true. I’m guessing most outlets won’t survive this without subscriber support. It’s 95 cents:

    Don’t let the soaring online audience numbers fool you. Coronavirus is a disaster for the economy and it will be a disaster for many newsrooms, too. Please pay for local news if you can, or there won’t be any local news at all.

    So goes off rails against "dishonest media," suggesting he's the real source of truth. Bashes WSJ, NYT, WaPo. Seems stories about what he was saying and doing at onset of crisis are getting under his skin.
