.@hysperbole runs around secret military bases, in her PJs in the dead of night, so you don't have to. A terrific "slice of life" piece on reporting in Somalia by a terrific reporter. Read the whole surreal story in @thebafflermag. thebaffler.com/latest/prelud…

Holding power to account and documenting history by reporting in risky situations means we need a sector of journalists who have no tie to any particular outlet, but instead a close connection to a place, a beat, or an investigation.

A few months ago I was part of a @VICENews team looking into the supply chains of essential oils in Somaliland. It was a wild ride and there is clearly a lot of exploitation going on there. Our piece: youtube.com/watch?v=5wEJvx_L…

I'm excited to see where @ffregister goes next and I'll certainly remain a keen supporter/cheerleader/spare hand on deck...

Unique in its mandate to represent freelancers who face risk in their work, please read the thread above and see how you can engage with @ffregister, as a fellow freelancer, as a staffer in the industry or as a consumer of news (so all of you, then?).

It's been a pleasure to serve on the board of @ffregister for the past two years, even if the pandemic & other challenges curtailed some of our ambitions. I'm delighted to celebrate the incoming board, who bring amazing experience/capabilities and are ably led by @hysperbole.

My ability to work independently for much of my career as a journalist remains very important to me and I deeply admire so many colleagues who choose the same (tricky) path. We all need to support and advocate for independent journalists who do vital, often very unique work.

Horrific. Al Jazeera's Shireen Abu Akleh shot in the face and killed by Israeli forces. She was wearing a press vest. She was wearing a helmet. aljazeera.com/news/2022/5/11…

Happy #WorldPressFreedomDay! Huge thanks to those who continue to report from countries under attack, and rally against governments to hold those in power to account, and call out corruption, and call for justice. More on our podcast, 'Silenced'. open.spotify.com/show/1pIzf1…
