BREAKING: David Brooks has resigned from his position at the Aspen Institute following our reporting — and new revelations — about conflicts of interest between the star NYT columnist and funders of a program he led for the think tank: buzzfeednews.com/article/craigs…
Something new we discovered: On March 15 of last year Brooks appeared on Meet The Press and said: "I think people should get on Nextdoor, this sort of ‘Facebook for neighbors.’”

Left unsaid: Nextdoor, a social network for neighborhoods, had donated $25,000 to Weave, his project.
A day before his appearance on the nationally televised NBC program, Brooks also tweeted to his nearly 250,000 followers, “If you know someone who lives alone, ask them to join NextDoor.”
