I have been following the ~8 weeks of live court room reporting from the team at The New York Times. I have shared some key texts via the NYT website, here on Mastodon, hoping to give credit where credit is due and help an audience see some key points during the trial.
There is one particular reporter, Jonah E. Bromwich, who has impressed me the most.
From his About page: "As a Times journalist, I am committed to upholding the standards of integrity outlined in our Ethical Journalism Handbook. I place a high priority on protecting my sources. I strive to be accurate and fair in my coverage and to gain a deep understanding of the issues I cover, from multiple angles."

He (and the NYT team) succinctly communicated, in few words, what was happening in the court room at any given time.
Bromwich was able to deliver updates that were professional, unbiased, and simple enough for us lay people to understand. And for that, I am thankful. Hats off!

"Just minutes after the verdict was announced, the Trump campaign sent out a fund-raising email in which Trump said, in all capital letters, “I am a political prisoner!” - Michael Gold, NYT

"Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan district attorney, will hold a news conference at 6:30p to discuss the verdict." - Jonah E. Bromwich, NYT

Today's historical event has lifted my optimism higher than it has been in many years.
I hope you all join me in celebrating today's verdict, in this never ending nightmare of Trump lies and criminality that we all have been burdened with.

With that said, SEE YOU AT THE POLLS IN NOVEMBER!

Tequila shots tonight for Alvin L. Bragg and his amazing prosecutorial team!

Put it on your calendars people.

"Sentencing is set for July 11 at 10 a.m.
That will put sentencing four days before the beginning of the Republican National Convention, at which Trump is expected to receive the party’s presidential nomination." - Michael Gold, Jesse McKinley, NYT

Holy Moses!
"Donald J. Trump has been convicted of falsifying records to cover up a sex scandal that threatened his ascent to the White House in 2016, part of a scheme that prosecutors described as a fraud on the American people. He is the first American president to be declared a felon, a stain he will carry as he seeks to regain the presidency." - Jonah E. Bromwich and Ben Protess, NYT

"Mr. Trump was convicted on all 34 counts of falsifying business records by a jury of 12 New Yorkers, who deliberated over two days to reach a decision in a case rife with descriptions of secret deals, tabloid scandal and an Oval Office pact with echoes of Watergate." - Jonah E. Bromwich and Ben Protess, NYT

"The felony conviction calls for a sentence of up to four years behind bars, but Mr. Trump may never see the inside of a prison cell. He could receive probation when he is sentenced, and he is certain to appeal the verdict — meaning it may be years before the case is resolved. Still, the jury’s decision is an indelible moment in America’s history, concluding the only one of four criminal cases against Mr. Trump that was likely to go to trial before Election Day." - Jonah E. Bromwich and Ben Protess, NYT
