My thanks to the sharp eyed reader who realized that in the press of news, I put down “Monday” instead of tonight, Wednesday, when I wrote to you earlier to let you know Karen Attiah will be our guest for Substack Live tonight. Sorry about the error. I hope you can join us tonight for what is certain to be an important discussion about the First Amendment. Earlier this month, the Washington Post fired columnist Karen Attiah. She wrote this on Substack: “I am proud of my eleven years at the Post. Beyond awards and recognition, the greatest honor has been working with brilliant colleagues and connecting with readers and writers around the world. To all who have supported me, read me, even those who disagreed with me— I say, thank you. You’ve made me a better writer, thinker, and person. But this is not the end of my work. I still believe in the power of the pen. My values have not changed.” Some of her final columns for the Post included: Karen’s work covering Saudi Arabia’s 2018 assassination of her colleague Jamal Khashoggi was widely acclaimed. She and her colleague, David Ignatius, earned the prestigious George Polk Award for Commentary in 2019 for their writing. Her firing came in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder. Karen joins us for a Substack Live tonight at 7 ET. Leave your questions for Karen in the comments and we’ll get to as many of them as we can.
