"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.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

It’s basically a giant, U-shaped dish, 150 feet from edge to edge, that sends and receives signals from space. And who’s the wizard of this Oz?

Sputnik, launched by the Soviet Union in 1957, was about the size and shape of a beach ball, and it sent the U.S. into a national panic that was eventually channeled into a space program of our own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11912627\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11912627\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"A man standing several flights of stairs up a giant satellite dish smiles at the view.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-800x600.jpeg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-1020x765.jpeg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-160x120.jpeg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/04/IMG_5772-1920x1440.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stephen Muther, a senior research engineer at SRI International, takes in the view from the mezzanine level of his office. \u003ccite>(Rachael Myrow/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“We were … listening to signals from [the Soviet Union] as they bounced off of the moon, using the moon as a reflector,” Muther said.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration deemed taxi driving to be one of the most dangerous professions in the country, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.taxi-library.org/osha_fact_sheet.htm\">taxi drivers are 60 times more likely to be murdered on the job\u003c/a> compared to other workers.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“It makes sense that this danger translates to people who are doing similar work, like food delivery work, transportation and ride-hailing work,” Dubal said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But unlike taxi drivers, who have unionized to receive workers’ compensation if they are injured on the job, rideshare and delivery drivers for gig companies like DoorDash, Lyft and Uber are considered independent contractors and therefore ineligible for traditional workers’ compensation. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cb>Companies play in the gray of Proposition 22\u003c/b>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California Proposition 22, a ballot proposition that solidified the classification of gig workers as independent contractors, was passed overwhelmingly by California voters in 2020. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gig companies including Uber and Lyft lobbied heavily, pouring almost $200 million\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">into the campaign to pass the measure, making Prop. 22 the most expensive ballot measure in California history. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to Dubal, rideshare workers occasionally received workers’ compensation if they were injured on the job before the law was passed.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“There have been workers all over the country who have applied for workers’ compensation based on injuries that they had sustained while on the job and claimed that they were employees,” Dubal said. “They had been misclassified by their employer and received it.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Since the controversial ballot measure passed, it has been harder for gig workers who have been injured on the job to receive workers’ compensation. Alameda County Superior Court Judge Frank Roesch ruled the law was \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21046905/prop-22-unconstitutional.pdf\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“unconstitutional” and “unenforceable.”\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The law’s constitutionality is currently being debated in other courts, specifically around the limited kinds of workers’ compensation the law provides gig workers.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11843323\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11843323\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-800x538.jpg\" alt=\"Uber driver Sergei Fyodorov holds a flyer supporting a yes vote on Proposition 22 in Oakland.\" width=\"800\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-800x538.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-1020x685.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-1536x1032.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Uber driver Sergei Fyodorov holds a flyer suggesting riders ask him why he supports Proposition 22, in Oakland on October 2020. \u003ccite>(Josh Edelson/AFP via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003cb>Limited forms of coverage\u003c/b>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Keshon, who asked KQED not to use his last name for safety reasons, had enjoyed working for DoorDash while going to school in San Diego. One night in August, he picked up an order from Jack in the Box and was driving to deliver it when he was \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/doordash-driver-shot-in-face-in-linda-vista/2697966/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">shot in the face \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">and crashed into a traffic signal pole. The San Diego Police say his case is still open and they have made no arrests. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“There are fragments of bullets still in my nephew’s head,” said Jasimine StokesOliver, Keshon’s aunt and a former DoorDash driver. “I don’t know if those things are going to affect him later.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prop. 22 promises that gig companies would offer contractors “occupational accident insurance” to cover medical expenses and lost income in the case of injuries sustained while on the job. The insurance only goes so far, and many companies, including DoorDash, do not require drivers to opt into the insurance.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prop. 22 also requires companies to cover medical bills up to $1 million — in contrast to the state’s system, which requires companies to cover all medical bills \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">for injuries sustained on the job\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, no matter how expensive. The law also requires companies to offer disability payments for up to two years. For non-gig workers, companies could be required to offer disability payments for the rest of a worker’s life, according to California law.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to StokesOliver, DoorDash covered Keshon’s medical expenses and gave him about $300 a week for two months — half of what he would have made if he hadn’t been bedridden. DoorDash did not cover the damages to Keshon’s car, which was totaled in the accident. \u003c/span>[aside postID=news_11907530 label='More On Gig Workers']\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Under Prop. 22, gig companies do not have to cover damages to a driver’s car, and it’s up to the company to set its rules. \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.lyft.com/driver/insurance\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lyft’s insurance\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, for example, covers damage to a car up to its actual cash value, if the driver already has comprehensive and collision coverage. Uber’s insurance covers physical damage to the car, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.uber.com/us/en/drive/insurance/\">regardless of who is at fault\u003c/a>.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">StokesOliver herself narrowly avoided an assault while driving for DoorDash.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“As I bent over to arrange [the food] at the door, I saw the gun in his hand,” StokesOliver said of the stranger who followed her to the door. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">She pulled out her phone and said she had to take a picture of the order and send it to DoorDash. She said once the man saw her phone, he pulled the gun away and left. StokesOliver was horrified and hurried back to her car. Her 10-year-old son was in the back seat. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As she drove away, StokesOliver kept the app open and ignored alerts to move to the next order until she felt safe enough to report the incident. StokesOliver said she was assured the company would look into what happened. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I was hoping they would send the police to that address,” StokesOliver said. “They never contacted me to tell me that they notified the police or [encouraged me] to make a police report. There was just none of that.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">StokesOliver left gig work soon after. She feels unsafe because of the lack of protections. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was now time for me to protect my 10-year-old and make sure that he can make it to his teens,” StokesOliver said. “I don’t want those types of violences affecting him and his lifestyle.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration deemed taxi driving to be one of the most dangerous professions in the country, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.taxi-library.org/osha_fact_sheet.htm\">taxi drivers are 60 times more likely to be murdered on the job\u003c/a> compared to other workers.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“It makes sense that this danger translates to people who are doing similar work, like food delivery work, transportation and ride-hailing work,” Dubal said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But unlike taxi drivers, who have unionized to receive workers’ compensation if they are injured on the job, rideshare and delivery drivers for gig companies like DoorDash, Lyft and Uber are considered independent contractors and therefore ineligible for traditional workers’ compensation. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cb>Companies play in the gray of Proposition 22\u003c/b>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California Proposition 22, a ballot proposition that solidified the classification of gig workers as independent contractors, was passed overwhelmingly by California voters in 2020. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gig companies including Uber and Lyft lobbied heavily, pouring almost $200 million\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">into the campaign to pass the measure, making Prop. 22 the most expensive ballot measure in California history. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to Dubal, rideshare workers occasionally received workers’ compensation if they were injured on the job before the law was passed.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“There have been workers all over the country who have applied for workers’ compensation based on injuries that they had sustained while on the job and claimed that they were employees,” Dubal said. “They had been misclassified by their employer and received it.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Since the controversial ballot measure passed, it has been harder for gig workers who have been injured on the job to receive workers’ compensation. Alameda County Superior Court Judge Frank Roesch ruled the law was \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21046905/prop-22-unconstitutional.pdf\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“unconstitutional” and “unenforceable.”\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The law’s constitutionality is currently being debated in other courts, specifically around the limited kinds of workers’ compensation the law provides gig workers.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11843323\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11843323\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-800x538.jpg\" alt=\"Uber driver Sergei Fyodorov holds a flyer supporting a yes vote on Proposition 22 in Oakland.\" width=\"800\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-800x538.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-1020x685.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver-1536x1032.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/YesOn22Driver.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Uber driver Sergei Fyodorov holds a flyer suggesting riders ask him why he supports Proposition 22, in Oakland on October 2020. \u003ccite>(Josh Edelson/AFP via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003cb>Limited forms of coverage\u003c/b>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Keshon, who asked KQED not to use his last name for safety reasons, had enjoyed working for DoorDash while going to school in San Diego. One night in August, he picked up an order from Jack in the Box and was driving to deliver it when he was \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/doordash-driver-shot-in-face-in-linda-vista/2697966/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">shot in the face \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">and crashed into a traffic signal pole. The San Diego Police say his case is still open and they have made no arrests. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“There are fragments of bullets still in my nephew’s head,” said Jasimine StokesOliver, Keshon’s aunt and a former DoorDash driver. “I don’t know if those things are going to affect him later.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prop. 22 promises that gig companies would offer contractors “occupational accident insurance” to cover medical expenses and lost income in the case of injuries sustained while on the job. The insurance only goes so far, and many companies, including DoorDash, do not require drivers to opt into the insurance.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prop. 22 also requires companies to cover medical bills up to $1 million — in contrast to the state’s system, which requires companies to cover all medical bills \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">for injuries sustained on the job\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, no matter how expensive. The law also requires companies to offer disability payments for up to two years. For non-gig workers, companies could be required to offer disability payments for the rest of a worker’s life, according to California law.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to StokesOliver, DoorDash covered Keshon’s medical expenses and gave him about $300 a week for two months — half of what he would have made if he hadn’t been bedridden. DoorDash did not cover the damages to Keshon’s car, which was totaled in the accident. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
