NEW from me for @BusinessInsider: Millennials and Gen Zers without kids can’t get enough of visiting Disney theme parks. I spoke to parks workers, travel agents, passholders and more to unpack what that could mean long-term for the happiest place on earth. businessinsider.com/why-disn…

Extremely proud of this piece as it was quite difficult to produce, but the harrowing testimonies from North Korean workers, and the lapses that they revealed in audits used to inspect for labor abuses in China, were deeply compelling and not previously reported. newyorker.com/magazine/2024/…

Stellar reporting and writing from @reedalexander and @HCuccinello. Littered with great details about Henry Medina's efforts to scale his fledgling media company Litquidity while preserving his anonymity.

NEW FROM @BusinessInsider, reported by @HCuccinello and me:
LITQUIDITY UNMASKED: Inside the rise, ambitions, and secret identity of the ex-banker dominating Wall Street’s rumor mill. @litcapital
He’s been one of the most mysterious yet influential voices on Wall Street: the anonymous Instagrammer known only as Litquidity. Since 2017, he’s been the architect of memes and the orchestrator of a rumor mill that’s kept the gossip flowing in the financial-services industry. Think of him as a Gossip Girl for the banking sector, sharing tips about life inside institutions like Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and Citigroup.
He's accumulated more than 800k followers on the social-media platform along the way, all while keeping his name and identity a secret. That’s over now.
Business Insider can reveal the name, identity, and work history of the former investment banker behind the Litquidity account — and plenty of other details about who he’s worked with, what went right, and what went wrong.
From burned bridges with former Litquidity employee Mark Moran and rifts with the producers of his podcast, to his goals to reinvent himself as a heavy-hitting investor and so much more — check out our full feature.
It’s live now, after months of reporting and dozens of interviews with people who know the real-life Lit:

Bob Iger's return as Disney's CEO once sparked hope inside the company. Now, insiders are anxious and losing faith. My story w/ @reedalexander: businessinsider.com/bob-iger…
Journalist request: What's it like to interview for the big Hollywood companies? Netflix sometimes puts candidates through 10+ rounds of interviews, and Disney sometimes gives behavioral tests. If you've had a wild or wacky interview experience at an entertainment company, DM me!

Insider is thrilled to announce the hire of Katie Notopoulos! Katie is funny, smart, and fearless in her analysis of the tech industry, its products, and how both are changing our lives every day.
Our readers want stories that help them interpret what’s going on in the world, and especially at companies like Meta, Google, Tesla, and Apple. They don’t just want to stay up-to-date on the news — they want a smart friend to tell them why it matters and how to talk about it with colleagues.
@katienotopoulos will be that smart friend.
Prior to Insider, Katie spent 11 years covering tech at BuzzFeed News. According to her Twitter bio, Katie is an "Extremely kind and amazing person, just like, so super nice and caring."
New from me: Inside Israel and around the world, families of those taken hostage by Hamas are pleading for their safe return. But they say they've received little if any information about what governments are planning to do to help. Edited by @kelmclaugh. businessinsider.com/israelis…

NEW from me @BusinessInsider: Mark Peretz, a 51-year-old Israeli dad, vanished Saturday while trying to rescue his daughter from Hamas militants' early attacks. The last thing his kids heard him say: "I'm Israeli. Don't shoot me!" Then the line went dead. businessinsider.com/israeli-…
Remarkable reporting by @clarissaward from inside Israel: adweek.com/tvnewser/cnns-cla…
