World Cup: More about the host cities, including Boston The 2026 World Cup is a little different than past editions of the tournament. Hosting duties are split between three countries: The U.S., Mexico and Canada. In all, 16 cities will serve as host for the monthlong event.

What was your first job as a journalist?

I was a reporter in Wilmington, Mass. Nothing ever happened there, so I always included all raccoon-related calls in the weekly police log.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yeah, though not professionally. I was on a typewriter through high school. I think about getting one now, but that would be obnoxious.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

It's hard not to love Michael Keaton as Henry Hacket in The Paper. Or pretty much any other character from The Paper.
