@j_feral@ashley@The_BFOOL i really like Linda a lot, from my POV she passes the Tansey test. Based on my experience with reporters, they typically do a quick google search, email a ton of people, interview whoever replies, and then ask that person for other names. Sometimes they interview great people but it ends up being on background (like the time I got reduced to an “experts say” by a NY Times reporter) and no quotes make it into the final piece
