Newsletters are ever so popular. I don’t know about you, but I get about five in my inbox daily and I cherish each of them. It is as if your favorite and most respected publications put their arm around you and whispered those things you MUST know before your day starts. Newsletters succeed when we, the audience, become addicted to them, when they become a part of one’s ritual, like the morning coffee and the bowl of oatmeal.
Now The New York Times announces a newsletter that is focused on one subject: The impeachment inquiry into President Trump. It is titled, Impeachment Briefing!
I have signed up! I will squeeze it between the second and third cup of coffee!

THE INTERROGATOR / EDITION 30
Mario García
Editorial consultant Mario García has advised the most important newsrooms in the world on design – and how best adapt to a digital transition. More than 700 publications, from The Wall Street Journal to the South China Morning Post, have received his strategic steer. Other than being an adjunct professor at Columbia University’s School of Journalism, he also runs his own consultancy firm: García Media. Nowadays his speciality is how digital devices influence narrative structure and consumption; his latest book, The Story, was written specifically to be read on a phone. Here, though, he confesses to a few analogue pleasures.
