Last month the @nytimes broke open serious, credible allegations about Graham Platner’s treatment of women. Some people criticized the story or wanted it written differently. I spoke with the story’s editor about our reporting and how we handle on-the-record & off-the-record information.

We’ve published the 23,000-word transcript of my @nytimes.com colleagues' interview with President Trump and opened it up for reader comments this morning. We’ve written many news stories off the interview but also think it's important for readers to see the president's words for themselves.
As the @nytimes.com assistant managing editor for standards and trust, I help edit a lot of pieces. This week I worked on two important stories about the experiences of transgender Americans. They talked to us about how they are coping with policy changes by the Trump administration.
Readers ask me how @nytimes.com handles unsubstantiated information and why we don't include certain details in news stories. It has come up with coverage of Charlie Kirk, Gaza & other stories. A good example came up today. It's about this story: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

“It is free in the sense that a used car handed over by a neighbor looking to get it out of his driveway is free,” write @sangernyt.bsky.social & Eric Schmitt about attempts to hide the taxpayer dollars going to renovate the “free” Air Force One from Qatar. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/27/u...
