Blood on their Hands by Mandy Matney is an excellent book. You are left with a sense of how hard it is to be a woman in journalism. She continues to make her way and carve her own path. Anyone who knows me knows I am picky about what I like to read. I'm gonna read this again.
Wow. It not only makes me feel better, it makes me happy I wrote the book for that purpose.
Thank you.
If it makes you feel any better, I read (listened to) your book in November of 2023 and am still reflecting on how your experiences as a woman in journalism are mirrored in so many other professions. Your story filled me with righteous anger but also hope. Thank you for sharing it.

This is the exact situation our constitution is supposed to protect us from.
WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE
Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

I always tell people DO NOT WRITE A MEMOIR if you are looking for confidence boost.

I published my book in 2023 and I still get random messages from weirdos who are like "I read your book and I hated it. I wanted more murder."

Don't ever give up, kids. I remember when Mandy faced threats & abuse for her reporting and when people bullied her for her voice on her podcast. She didn't let anything stop her & deserves all the success. (This is really perfect casting.)

UGH... leave it to Dick Harpootlian to fat shame the iconic actor playing him in the Murdaugh Hulu show.

"Not as good looking as I hoped he'd been," Dick said of Jim O' Heir. "Seems to be a plus size version of me."

🤬😳🤯

.....Has Dick seen Dick recently?

The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right.

The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy.

We must end that international embarrassment.

Yes. We need Medicare for All.

This shouldn’t be a controversial take 😭😭
AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.

I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person

I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.
