Before Harry + Meghan’s Oprah interview, it’s worth noting how the narrative re: why they left royal life has been twisted by the (UK) media to “They want privacy.”

But that isn’t their issue w/ the press. It’s double standards + false/biased reporting ImageImageImageImage
Last year I compared UK media coverage of Meghan Markle + Prince Harry to that of Kate Middleton + Prince William.

Limited scope: only stories from the same news org written AFTER weddings + only outlets in the royal rota.

There were differences. buzzfeednews.com/article/elliev…
And there’s more. If you look at the coverage of Meghan from after she married Harry (aka once she was royal) until they “stepped back,” you’ll see thousands of negative, sensationalist stories, which are often thinly sourced and of somewhat dubious news value. ImageImageImageImage

Some personal news!

Sunday marked 8 years for me at @BuzzFeed / @BuzzFeedNews. It's been a wild and crazy ride since January 2013.

I'm incredibly proud of the work I've done and grateful for the lifelong friends I've made. ImageImageImageImage

ⓘ This Nonsense Claim About Election Fraud Is Disputed By Reality:

Trump’s flagrant lies about the election are undermining democracy and stoking tensions that could turn deadly.

Twitter’s labels on them are pathetic: buzzfeednews.com/article/elliev…
According to Twitter policy: "Not all false or untrue information about politics or civic processes constitutes manipulation or interference."

But at what point will Trump’s refusal to accept the results of the election qualify as interference in a peaceful transition of power?
Although Trump has not explicitly called on supporters to take up arms in his defense, thousands of Americans have engaged with Trump's tweets with promises to fight to keep him in power.

I think a lot about what Mr. Rogers said and did when he accepted his Lifetime Achievement Award at the 1997 Emmys:
As @TomJunod so beautifully put it in @esquire's November 1998 issue:

web.archive.org/web/2003030118…
In his final broadcast, Mr. Rogers said:

"I know how tough it is some days to look with hope and confidence on the months and years ahead. But I would like to tell you what I often told you when you were much younger. I like you just the way you are."
