FUCK1/oh my goodness: Just got crushing news from Tracy Breslin, wife of
@EricBoehlert
https://pressrun.media Has died in a bike accident, age 57. Adored his kids Jane and Ben, his dogs, biking and running and basketball and good friends, a fierce and fearless defender of the truth
2/Eric was an amazing friend. He fought to rescue journalism and democracy, which need saving. Worked at Rolling Stone, Billboard, founded Media Matters and Salon, Pressrun on Substack. Brutal to bad media on twitter, sweetest guy in real life
Frequent guest on Stephanie Miller. Yesterday Stephanie's dog Jamie died unexpectedly. Like someone at DU said about this, the world is out of kilter. The good people are dying or getting sick and the disgusting people live on and on.
Still waiting for official word. On Twitter I saw his local town paper with an article about the accident but didnt name him. The Sun (murdoch I think) so I wont link it, is reporting this.
