"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.",

It has been a \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/12/sports/basketball/the-blooper-reel-cleveland-fans-arent-used-to-such-good-news.html?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">brutal 51-year stretch for Cleveland sports fans\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if Steph Curry and company have anything to say about it, Cleveland's wait will continue and LeBron James’ savior act will be postponed for another year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Oracle Arena parking lot before Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals last week, Warriors fan Robert Palimore said an NBA title would mean a lot to Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4>NBA Finals Schedule\u003c/h4>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Game 1: Thursday, June 4, 6 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Game 2: Sunday, June 7, 5 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Game 3: Tuesday, June 9, 6 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Game 4: Thursday, June 11, 6 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>*Game 5: Sunday, June 14, 5 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>*Game 6: Tuesday, June 16, 6 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>*Game 7: Friday, June 19, 6 p.m.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>All games will be televised on ABC. *If necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“We haven’t had a team take it this far in a while.

Chicago signed McDonald to a one-year contract in late March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McDonald was taken into custody at 7 a.m. Monday on suspicion of domestic violence and child endangerment. Police say he assaulted a woman while she was holding a baby at his home in Santa Clara. He was found about three hours later at a home in San Jose and arrested. Police did not disclose if the woman or the baby were injured.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Former-49ers-lineman-Ray-McDonald-arrested-in-6285161.php\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco Chronicle dug up\u003c/a> police scanner audio that appears to shed some light on the call that sent officers to McDonald's Santa Clara home early Monday morning:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Police did not release details, but scanner recordings reviewed by The Chronicle indicate that officers were sent to an apartment on Carlyle Court by the alleged victim’s mother. Dispatchers said the mother told them that McDonald, her daughter’s boyfriend, “was being violent” and had been drinking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The caller told the dispatchers that the victim, who has an infant daughter, had locked herself in her bedroom but that McDonald had broken the door down. It’s not clear if the infant is also McDonald’s daughter.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Multiple news outlets are reporting McDonald's bail was set at $15,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/MaioccoCSN/status/602943878157770754\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original post 11:45 a.m. Monday\u003c/strong>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several Bay Area media organizations are reporting that former San Francisco 49er Ray McDonald was arrested Monday morning on suspicion of domestic violence and child endangerment. Details are sketchy at this point, but Santa Clara Police Lieutenant Kurt Clarke told the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Former-49ers-lineman-Ray-McDonald-arrested-in-6285161.php\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/a> that more information on the arrest would be released later today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Update 12:01 p.m\u003c/em>. NBC Bay Area Tweeted the following this morning:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/nbcbayarea/status/602911525754511360\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/sports/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/article22182444.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sacramento Bee\u003c/a> is reporting McDonald is currently being held at Santa Clara County jail and that the police report's address where McDonald was arrested belongs to recently retired 49ers defensive star Justin Smith.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident is the third in eight months in which McDonald has been accused of criminal violence. The first, in August, involved alleged domestic abuse at his home against his pregnant fiancee. In November, the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/11/10/report-49ers-ray-mcdonald-wont-be-charged-in-domestic-violence-case\" target=\"_blank\">announced it had insufficient evidence\u003c/a> to charge McDonald over that incident, citing a lack of cooperation from the alleged victim as well as a lack of other witnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before that case was dropped, the 49ers came under intense criticism for playing McDonald while the investigation was underway, especially considering a spate of high-profile, alleged criminal activity by NFL players, including a very ugly incident in which \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=ray+rice+elevator\" target=\"_blank\">Ray Rice knocked out his fiancee in an elevator\u003c/a> with a punch. Then-49ers coach Jim Harbaugh repeatedly defended the decision to play McDonald by saying \"due process\" had to be respected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when McDonald was arrested last December on suspicion of sexual assault, the 49ers decided they'd had enough, releasing him almost immediately after authorities announced an investigation. In that case, a woman claimed McDonald had sexually assaulted her after she fell and hit her head at his home. McDonald has claimed the sex was consensual. He has yet to be charged in the case, and he said in March that he will \u003ca href=\"http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/16/ray-mcdonald-will-sue-the-woman-who-accused-him-of-rape/\" target=\"_blank\">sue the alleged victim\u003c/a> for falsely accusing him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Ray-McDonald-Arrested-Domestic-Violence-SJPD-Sources-304911011.html\" target=\"_blank\">NBC Bay Area\u003c/a> contacted McDonald's mother today in an attempt to learn more about her son's latest problems:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\">Reached by phone in Florida on Monday, McDonald's mother, LaBrina McDonald, told NBC Bay area that she knew nothing about the arrest. \"I'm not dealing with any more of this negative stuff,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\">She did say that McDonald's baby, Amari, was born in March to his ex-fiance and that sometimes he visited his newborn son in Silicon Valley.

The first, in August, involved alleged domestic abuse at his home against his pregnant fiancee. In November, the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/11/10/report-49ers-ray-mcdonald-wont-be-charged-in-domestic-violence-case\" target=\"_blank\">announced it had insufficient evidence\u003c/a> to charge McDonald over that incident, citing a lack of cooperation from the alleged victim as well as a lack of other witnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before that case was dropped, the 49ers came under intense criticism for playing McDonald while the investigation was underway, especially considering a spate of high-profile, alleged criminal activity by NFL players, including a very ugly incident in which \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=ray+rice+elevator\" target=\"_blank\">Ray Rice knocked out his fiancee in an elevator\u003c/a> with a punch. Then-49ers coach Jim Harbaugh repeatedly defended the decision to play McDonald by saying \"due process\" had to be respected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when McDonald was arrested last December on suspicion of sexual assault, the 49ers decided they'd had enough, releasing him almost immediately after authorities announced an investigation. In that case, a woman claimed McDonald had sexually assaulted her after she fell and hit her head at his home. McDonald has claimed the sex was consensual. He has yet to be charged in the case, and he said in March that he will \u003ca href=\"http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/16/ray-mcdonald-will-sue-the-woman-who-accused-him-of-rape/\" target=\"_blank\">sue the alleged victim\u003c/a> for falsely accusing him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Ray-McDonald-Arrested-Domestic-Violence-SJPD-Sources-304911011.html\" target=\"_blank\">NBC Bay Area\u003c/a> contacted McDonald's mother today in an attempt to learn more about her son's latest problems:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\">Reached by phone in Florida on Monday, McDonald's mother, LaBrina McDonald, told NBC Bay area that she knew nothing about the arrest. \"I'm not dealing with any more of this negative stuff,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\">She did say that McDonald's baby, Amari, was born in March to his ex-fiance and that sometimes he visited his newborn son in Silicon Valley.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, April 22, 2015\u003c/strong>: Barry Bonds’ obstruction of justice conviction was reversed Wednesday by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which ruled his meandering answer before a grand jury in 2003 was not material to the government’s investigation into steroids distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds was indicted in 2007 for his testimony four years earlier before the grand jury investigating the illegal distribution of performance-enhancing drugs by the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following a trial that opened in March 2011, a jury deadlocked on three counts charging Bonds with making false statements when he denied receiving steroids and human growth hormone from trainer Greg Anderson and denied receiving injections from Anderson or his associates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonds was convicted on one count for his response when he was asked whether Anderson ever gave him “anything that required a syringe to inject yourself with.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Today’s news is something that I have long hoped for,” Bonds said in a statement. “I am humbled and truly thankful for the outcome as well as the opportunity our judicial system affords to all individuals to seek justice. … I am excited about what the future holds for me as I embark on the next chapter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica Wolfram, one of the jurors who convicted Bonds following the three-week trial and four days of deliberations, said she couldn’t help but feel the decade-long prosecution was “all a waste, all for nothing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just a waste of money, having the whole trial and jury,” she said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government could ask the 11-judge panel to reconsider Wednesday’s decision or could request that all 29 judges on the 9th Circuit rehear the case. The full court has never sat on a case since it began using the “limited en banc” panels in 1980.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors also could petition the U.S. Supreme Court to review the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wendy Thurm, a sports journalist and attorney, told KQED she wasn’t surprised by the 9th Circuit’s action. “A lot of observers, including myself, were surprised that the original appellate court did uphold a conviction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know how much this is going to change public opinion, though. A lot of people think he’s a bad guy, a lot of people have drawn their own conclusions about what he did or didn’t do, whether he should be in the Hall of Fame. That debate will continue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voting for the Baseball Hall of Fame is limited to members of the Baseball Writers Association of America, and Thurm said she doesn’t think many of the writers who voted against Bonds in the past did so because of his conviction. “It’s much more focused on their belief that he did take steroids, and that in their view, that disqualifies him. So I don’t think this 9th Circuit decision opens the door for him to waltz into the Hall of Fame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what it does do is open up the door for him to have a more public relationship with the Giants organization going forward.

So I don’t think this 9th Circuit decision opens the door for him to waltz into the Hall of Fame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what it does do is open up the door for him to have a more public relationship with the Giants organization going forward. He was a spring training instructor last year, he was even at the Giants game last night. That could be part of a goodwill effort to try to change people’s minds about the Hall of Fame.

His signature phrase on the longball became, “Tell it goodbye!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they had a Nobel Prize for baseball, Willie would have won it,” Simmons said during Mays’ 80th birthday festivities in May 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also announced many of home run king Barry Bonds’ drives during his pursuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“R.I.P #LonSimmons you will forever be in our hearts. Broadcasting Bay Area sports since 1958,” Bonds posted on Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Simmons, who was honored with the Ford C. Frick Award by the Hall of Fame in 2004, also had a famous call on Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young’s epic, back-and-forth game-winning scramble for 49 yards against the Minnesota Vikings on Oct. 30, 1988, that still lives in the memories of Bay Area sports fans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Young, back to throw, in trouble, he’s going to be sacked. No, gets away, he runs, gets away again, goes to the 40, gets away again, to the 35, cuts back at the 30, to the 20, the 15, the 10. He dives. Touchdown, 49ers!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the Niners’ final season at Candlestick Park in 2013, Simmons reflected on the run-down stadium where he did most of his work. Simmons often took shots at himself and that humor became part of his charm, along with his baritone voice and personable nature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt that Candlestick and I were soul mates: We were both big and ugly, we were both windy and they could never figure out how to get rid of either one of us,” Simmons said. “As John Brodie used to say about Candlestick, he said, ‘We have the advantage when we play at home, I have the advantage because I’ve played in the wind and things and I know what the ball’s going to do.’ The guys come in to play one game a year and the winds and stuff killed them because it really did affect the ball throwing it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons — who spent much of his time in the radio booth alongside Russ Hodges — dealt with cancer more than once in recent years. He requested not to have a memorial service, the Giants said. He attended selected games last season and still worked as a community ambassador for the Giants after retiring in 2002.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m grateful for the support of the Bay area fans,” Simmons said upon being selected winner of the Ford C. Frick Award. “The fans are more important to me than anything else because those are the people I tried to please the 40 years.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Broadcasting Bay Area sports since 1958,” Bonds posted on Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Simmons, who was honored with the Ford C. Frick Award by the Hall of Fame in 2004, also had a famous call on Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young’s epic, back-and-forth game-winning scramble for 49 yards against the Minnesota Vikings on Oct. 30, 1988, that still lives in the memories of Bay Area sports fans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Young, back to throw, in trouble, he’s going to be sacked. No, gets away, he runs, gets away again, goes to the 40, gets away again, to the 35, cuts back at the 30, to the 20, the 15, the 10. He dives. Touchdown, 49ers!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the Niners’ final season at Candlestick Park in 2013, Simmons reflected on the run-down stadium where he did most of his work. Simmons often took shots at himself and that humor became part of his charm, along with his baritone voice and personable nature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt that Candlestick and I were soul mates: We were both big and ugly, we were both windy and they could never figure out how to get rid of either one of us,” Simmons said. “As John Brodie used to say about Candlestick, he said, ‘We have the advantage when we play at home, I have the advantage because I’ve played in the wind and things and I know what the ball’s going to do.’ The guys come in to play one game a year and the winds and stuff killed them because it really did affect the ball throwing it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons — who spent much of his time in the radio booth alongside Russ Hodges — dealt with cancer more than once in recent years. He requested not to have a memorial service, the Giants said. He attended selected games last season and still worked as a community ambassador for the Giants after retiring in 2002.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m grateful for the support of the Bay area fans,” Simmons said upon being selected winner of the Ford C. Frick Award. “The fans are more important to me than anything else because those are the people I tried to please the 40 years.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
