"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.",

When kids are castigated for sharing these memes with teachers and parents — which often carry themes criticizing oversensitivity and political correctness — they become even more susceptible to their influence, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The boys [are] consuming media with the 'people are too sensitive' and 'you can't say anything anymore!' themes,\" Schroeder tweeted. \"For these boys, this will ring true — they're getting in trouble for 'nothing.' This narrative allows boys to shed the shame — replacing it w/anger.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To prevent kids from shutting you out, get curious she says. Meet them where they are. \"Instead we inquired more: Where did you hear this? Where did you see this? Can you show me that?\" she said. \"When they showed us, the first thing we tried to do was say, 'I get why this seems funny on the surface. And I totally get why it's confusing.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schroeder started talking to her sons, now 11 and 14, about the hate they were encountering online this past year. Laying that groundwork early, when they're younger and more open, she said, may help them think more critically about the media they consume later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I hope that we were able to build with our kids a foundation where they believe that when we say something is not great, maybe they disobey but deep inside there's a little voice that's going to say to them: \u003cem>you know, I should question why this seems so funny and yet I feel like I have to keep it a secret.\u003c/em>\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schroeder isn't worried about white male youth themselves, she said, calling this generation \"the most open-hearted potentially kindest critical thinking loving group of boys that I've ever seen,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She's worried about how propaganda is being spread online — by weaponizing that benevolence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR's Ian Stewart and Barrie Hardymon produced and edited this story for broadcast.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

Last year, white supremacists were responsible for the majority of the 50 documented extremist \u003ca href=\"https://www.adl.org/murder-and-extremism-2018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">killings \u003c/a>in the United States, according to data from The Anti-Defamation League, an increase from the 37 extremist-linked murders in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schroeder has become determined to prevent her young boys from being groomed by radical messaging through these online pathways. But she says it was important to not approach her kids about the topic from a place of shaming. \"They're kids and we can't expect them to automatically be able to detect propaganda when it's being presented to them,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And shame, as she noted on Twitter, is the same tactic used to recruit young men to extremist groups. When kids are castigated for sharing these memes with teachers and parents — which often carry themes criticizing oversensitivity and political correctness — they become even more susceptible to their influence, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The boys [are] consuming media with the 'people are too sensitive' and 'you can't say anything anymore!' themes,\" Schroeder tweeted. \"For these boys, this will ring true — they're getting in trouble for 'nothing.' This narrative allows boys to shed the shame — replacing it w/anger.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To prevent kids from shutting you out, get curious she says. Meet them where they are. \"Instead we inquired more: Where did you hear this? Where did you see this? Can you show me that?\" she said. \"When they showed us, the first thing we tried to do was say, 'I get why this seems funny on the surface. And I totally get why it's confusing.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schroeder started talking to her sons, now 11 and 14, about the hate they were encountering online this past year. Laying that groundwork early, when they're younger and more open, she said, may help them think more critically about the media they consume later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I hope that we were able to build with our kids a foundation where they believe that when we say something is not great, maybe they disobey but deep inside there's a little voice that's going to say to them: \u003cem>you know, I should question why this seems so funny and yet I feel like I have to keep it a secret.\u003c/em>\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schroeder isn't worried about white male youth themselves, she said, calling this generation \"the most open-hearted potentially kindest critical thinking loving group of boys that I've ever seen,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She's worried about how propaganda is being spread online — by weaponizing that benevolence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR's Ian Stewart and Barrie Hardymon produced and edited this story for broadcast.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

That has to largely be coming out of drivers' pockets, according to White.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft argues the take rate is higher because it has introduced bikes and scooters. The company takes 100% of every fee for a scooter or bike rental since there's no driver to pay, which would drive up the overall take rate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, White says, bikes and scooters are still too small a part of Lyft's business to meaningfully affect the take rate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White says the new payment model is an important step in the direction of profitability for a company that lost more than $900 million last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A couple of quarters of time has been bought, but you know investors won’t be patient forever,\" White says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",
