What was your first job as a journalist?

I worked communications for Cornell's College of Arts and Sciences as a student writer

Have you ever used a typewriter?

As a kid. More as a toy than as a tool. I honestly am not sure why my parents have one — I was born in 2003!

How is social media changing news?

We all now have a platform. Many people use it to peddle false and/or biased info. The algorithms also are designed to create echo chambers.
