Today a jury is being convened in Denver to make a decision about whether Taylor Swift was inappropriately touched on her butt a few years ago.  President Donald Trump is hold up at one of his golf resorts sending out nasty Tweets about a Missouri Senator Roy Blount who has joined a bi-partisan effort to make sure the Special Prosecutor for the Russian investigation, Robert Mueller, is not fired for trying to produce a factual record of Trump’s association with Russia.

Then there is James Gorman, science reporter for The New York Times, and Lauren Esposito.  She is a scorpion expert from California whom Gorman interviewed at length for a written story via a twenty-five minute video that featured her showing three scorpions and sharing her research from the last ten years into a creature who preceded the dinosaurs on planet Earth.

Straight up reporting.  Arachnology  Fascinating.  The essence of The New York Times.
