"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

From left to right: Jim Bob Rubbernecker, Brushwood Thicket Farmer and Geverend Dee. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Ken Collins)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Lord told Shuler, “The music Jeff and I both appreciate the most tends to be hard to find, mostly imports or on labels that aren’t widely distributed types of music.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Naturally, Shuler kicked off his story with music from an obscure band called \u003ca href=\"http://ahalocalledfred.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A Halo Called Fred\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This music, as they say, is not available in stores,” Shuler said in his piece. “And this may be the only time you’ll hear it on the radio. But thanks to the Internet Underground Music Archive you can hear it online 24 hours a day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As it happens, A Halo Called Fred is still making music, and it’s still uploading it to the internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L44pX9GsCVs]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, I don’t know if I would call these guys prosumers. After all, musicians have been working day jobs since the beginning of time. Some hustle until they make it big. Others never make it big and simply hustle till they drop. There have always been more people who want to be superstars than can be, for a wide variety of reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What can be said is that the internet did make it possible for musicians of all kinds to post music where it can be heard 24 hours a day. Thanks to the Internet Underground Music Archive and other start-ups like it, music distribution become substantially cheaper, too, and the universe of music did expand as more people uploaded more creative work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But just because you put a song out there in the world, doesn’t mean anyone is going to listen to it without a heck of a lot of promotion of the right kind. And big media companies are fighting as hard as ever to stay in the mix — to keep your ears and eyeballs glued to their content. Ariana Grande is not tops on the iTunes charts just because she’s talented.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffxKSjUwKdU]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republic Records, backed by Universal Music Group, puts a lot of creative and marketing muscle behind her, and that propels her onto our laptops and phones in a way that’s typically more compelling to more people than anything you or I could create as “prosumers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It can also be said that the expanded universe of amateur “content creators” has helped to change tastes in such a way that many of us prefer, or at least enjoy, communication that looks as if it hasn’t been heavily produced. Even if it’s not really amateur.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A new breed of “social media influencers” has risen to the top of the popularity charts, including people like Jake Joseph Paul, who rose to significant fame on the now-defunct video application Vine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gn4RAuahHw]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With 14 million subscribers to his YouTube channel, Paul’s not a civilian entertainer. But he’s not what people in 1993 pictured when they pictured an actor, or a filmmaker. He’s famous for being Paul, and repeatedly saying the word “peace” in a slightly obnoxious way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least one person Shuler talked to back in ’93 predicted this would happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Instead of 50 channels with nothing on, we’re going to have 500 channels with nothing on,” said Jerry Berman, then executive director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Electronic Frontier Foundation\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11665518\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 160px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-11665518\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-160x237.jpeg\" alt=\"KQED's Peter Jon Shuler, circa 1993, quite possibly working on this very story.\" width=\"160\" height=\"237\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-160x237.jpeg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-800x1183.jpeg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-1020x1508.jpeg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-812x1200.jpeg 812w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-1180x1745.jpeg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-960x1420.jpeg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-240x355.jpeg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-375x555.jpeg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview-520x769.jpeg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/KQED-HQ_preview.jpeg 1385w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 160px) 100vw, 160px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">KQED’s Peter Jon Shuler, circa 1993, quite possibly working on this very story. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Peter Jon Shuler)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“Many of these companies have a much narrower vision of the information highway, and they think of really building a lot of capacity to deliver information downstream. In other words, from a station or a cable company to the consumer, but not a lot of bandwidth or the capability of the consumer to reach back or to reach out to other consumers,” Berman said 25 years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And 25 years later, Shuler thinks Berman nailed it on the head. “I don’t think he was guessing. I think he knew what was coming. A very big signal focused at you, at the consumer, and tiny little signal reaching out pushing the other way,” Shuler says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I dunno.

But we will continue to honor her by picking up where she left off — fighting for equality and unconditionally giving to our communities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Leno suggests, Dykes on Bikes was much more than a once-a-year contingent in the Pride Parade. The group also did philanthropic work for LGBT causes and organizations around the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She blazed the trail for the rest of us in courage and LGBTQ pride,” said Kate Brown, a former president of the group. “Like the roads we ride, our lives take many twists and turns. I am forever grateful for the route that brought Soni into my life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ammiano, who eventually went on to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and the state Legislature, was one of the few openly gay teachers when the group was formed. He says that in 1976, before Harvey Milk was elected as the first openly gay candidate in the United States, Dykes on Bikes were an early symbol of empowerment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were out there, and they inspired other things to happen,” Ammiano told KQED. “They were quite an inspiration and they did it with such spirit!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That spirit will continue in June when the Dykes on Bikes lead the now-massive LGBT Pride Parade up Market Street, as they have for more than 40 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wolf was selected by the celebration committee to be a Grand Marshal for next month’s Pride Parade. While Wolf won’t be there in person, her life will be remembered June 24 at a public memorial in Civic Center after the Pride Parade. A memorial fund has been established in her honor.\u003c/p>\n\n",

But we will continue to honor her by picking up where she left off — fighting for equality and unconditionally giving to our communities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Leno suggests, Dykes on Bikes was much more than a once-a-year contingent in the Pride Parade. The group also did philanthropic work for LGBT causes and organizations around the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She blazed the trail for the rest of us in courage and LGBTQ pride,” said Kate Brown, a former president of the group. “Like the roads we ride, our lives take many twists and turns.

He says that in 1976, before Harvey Milk was elected as the first openly gay candidate in the United States, Dykes on Bikes were an early symbol of empowerment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were out there, and they inspired other things to happen,” Ammiano told KQED. “They were quite an inspiration and they did it with such spirit!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That spirit will continue in June when the Dykes on Bikes lead the now-massive LGBT Pride Parade up Market Street, as they have for more than 40 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wolf was selected by the celebration committee to be a Grand Marshal for next month’s Pride Parade. While Wolf won’t be there in person, her life will be remembered June 24 at a public memorial in Civic Center after the Pride Parade. A memorial fund has been established in her honor.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

About 50 crimes, including two killings, were attributed to the East Area Rapist during the three years DeAngelo worked in Auburn, but Jones said it wasn't clear if any were committed while on duty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DeAngelo was fired from the Auburn department in 1979 after being arrested for stealing a can of dog repellent and a hammer from a drug store, according to Auburn Journal articles from the time.

It's an emotional roller-coaster right now,\" Carson-Sandler, who now lives near Hilton Head, South Carolina, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. \"I feel like I'm in the middle of a dream and I'm going to wake up and it's not going to be true. It's just so nice to have closure and to know he's in jail.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>FBI agents and other investigators were gathering evidence at DeAngelo's neatly kept home on Wednesday. Jones said they were looking for mementos that may have been stolen from victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neighbors said DeAngelo took meticulous care of his house, which was always perfectly painted and his lawn manicured.

About 50 crimes, including two killings, were attributed to the East Area Rapist during the three years DeAngelo worked in Auburn, but Jones said it wasn't clear if any were committed while on duty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DeAngelo was fired from the Auburn department in 1979 after being arrested for stealing a can of dog repellent and a hammer from a drug store, according to Auburn Journal articles from the time.
