Thanks once again for your efforts, Alec. My interest in criminal justice reform is why I read your book and subscribed to your newsletter but now I find I am thinking more critically in many areas. During one of the last Jan 6 hearings I recognized some sell-serving comments on the part of someone giving testimony. I doubt I would have noticed before. I recognized some truth but also heard the bullshit. I am doing the same with what I am reading in the NYT and other places--I am thinking more critically. P.S. My home state of WI has 42 prisons/jail (not counting ICE Detention Centers). In one county alone, Dodge, there are 4 prisons/jails and I think one of the ICE Detention facilities is in Dodge too. Dodge County--a community built on caging people.
Great article. I subscribe to WaPo and to the NYT, and it helps to have journalist tactics described so clearly. It makes me a more informed reader. Thank you.
