And in #SolutionSet this week, I wrote about how @pewresearch created an email newsletter course on U.S. immigration policy. There are tons of lessons here for local newsrooms: lenfestinstitute.org/solution-set/2…
Finally, #NewsBookClub started this week. There are still a couple days left to vote on the first book we'll read. Sign up to join us here: lenfestinstitute.org/book-club/
oh whoops. I forgot to number all the tweets. It's been a long week. You should still read all this. Have a great weekend!
