Let me tell ya. The Nationals werenโt expected to have a good squad this year after Bryce Harper left & they started off shaky, but theyโve been fun to watch this post season. Well deserved champs.

MPJ says heโs not antivax
โWe donโt have years and years of data for how it can affect you. So for me, I know Iโm immune to COVID right nowโmore immune than a lot of people with the vaccine are. Iโve had it twice.Iโve got the antibodiesโฆjust laying off on it for nowโ

Flo Jo, obvious drug user, had the nails. She died in her sleep at age 38 because thatโs what a lifetime of drug use does to the body (and why itโs supposed to be banned from elite sports).
The โdebateโ about solo live shots should not be a debate. Weโre losing so many people in this industry for a number of reasons but one of them is because theyโre burnt out and overworked as MMJs. One getting hit by a car on live tv shouldnโt be the wake up call.

My brother sent me a reddit post about them and Iโd love to ask you guys what you think.
We discuss red flags regularly but what would you consider a green flag? For info: green flags signify that the person youโre dating is good for you.

Iโd like to thank protein shakes, a strict workout regiment, water, and lots of baked chicken for these results ๐ญ
Also, I donโt wanna hear that โoh itโs supposed to be like that in your first marketโ. No no no. Working under a time crunch to write, edit, and get video in AND THEN have to set up your own live shot/check surroundings is not normal. & sometimes it doesnโt stop in your 1st job!

Iโm sorry for ranting but sheesh ๐ญ when will it end? Iโm tired of seeing these MMJ horror stories and then having people say โthatโs what you signed up forโ. In what world? Something has to be done and it shouldnโt be at the expense of reporters man. Letโs discuss.
You know the cool thing about being a reporter?
You can have a bad day at work (bad story, bad live shot, etc.), wash your hands of it, come in the next day with a new story and knock it out the park.
Itโs the small victories ๐ฅฒ
You got this picture from โthe mediaโ. This picture has literally been on EVERY news channel and platform since it was first released by law enforcement.
Please stop pushing this fake narrative that โthe mediaโ is purposely not reporting or circulating it.
