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.",

We know the road ahead comes with both massive opportunities and genuine challenges.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft said Friday it will invest $50 million annually, or 1 percent of profits — whichever is greater — in transportation initiatives in cities. The investments will include free or discounted rides for medical patients and low-income seniors and developing infrastructure for bikes, scooters and transit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IPO represents a watershed moment for ride hailing, an industry hatched from the rise of smartphones. Now that both Lyft and Uber have made it easy to summon a ride on a mobile app, more people are already starting to wonder if owning their own cars will make sense in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft has been gaining ground on Uber in the past two years, which enabled it to double its revenue last year to $2.2 billion — the kind of growth that tends to wow investors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company's U.S. market share has expanded from 22 percent in 2016 to 39 percent last year as Uber slogged through revelations about rampant internal \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/22/640900988/dozens-sued-uber-for-harassment-heres-what-they-re-set-to-receive\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sexual harassment claims\u003c/a>, allegations that it stole self-driving technology and other mortifying issues, prompting a consumer backlash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Lyft parlayed a warm and fuzzy image that it used to cultivate by adorning drivers' cars with a fluffy pink mustache to position its brand as the more socially responsible of the two ride-hailing rivals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite Lyft's recent inroad, there is still no guarantee the company will become profitable — a risk flagged in its own regulatory filings leading up to the IPO. Developing autonomous vehicles is key to reducing driver costs, and Lyft is behind competitors such as Google spin-off Waymo, which has begun testing a ride-hailing service using its robotic minivans in the Phoenix area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cutting costs by reducing pay to drivers also could prove difficult, a challenge underscored by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11735251/lyft-and-uber-drivers-in-s-f-l-a-stage-one-day-strike-in-push-for-higher-wages\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">protests staged earlier this week over wages\u003c/a> that drivers complain already are too low.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even so, Lyft's revenue per ride has been increasing, so some analysts see the company as headed in the right direction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft's co-founders Logan Green and John Zimmer have structured the shares so that together they will hold 49 percent of the voting power, enough to substantially influence major decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft has focused on its mission of getting people to give up their personal cars in favor of ride-hailing, shared bikes and scooters, and has remained in North America. By contrast, Uber has expanded overseas and recently bought Careem, a major rival in the Middle East, while experimenting with food delivery, boats and freight operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's become increasingly common for unprofitable tech companies to go public, and the percentage of money-losing tech companies that entered the market in 2018 rivals 2000, when the dot-com bubble burst, according to data from Jay Ritter, finance professor at the University of Florida. Some, like Amazon, which took several years to turn a profit after its IPO turned into great bets for early investors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post will be updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

We know the road ahead comes with both massive opportunities and genuine challenges.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft said Friday it will invest $50 million annually, or 1 percent of profits — whichever is greater — in transportation initiatives in cities. The investments will include free or discounted rides for medical patients and low-income seniors and developing infrastructure for bikes, scooters and transit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IPO represents a watershed moment for ride hailing, an industry hatched from the rise of smartphones. Now that both Lyft and Uber have made it easy to summon a ride on a mobile app, more people are already starting to wonder if owning their own cars will make sense in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft has been gaining ground on Uber in the past two years, which enabled it to double its revenue last year to $2.2 billion — the kind of growth that tends to wow investors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company's U.S. market share has expanded from 22 percent in 2016 to 39 percent last year as Uber slogged through revelations about rampant internal \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/22/640900988/dozens-sued-uber-for-harassment-heres-what-they-re-set-to-receive\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sexual harassment claims\u003c/a>, allegations that it stole self-driving technology and other mortifying issues, prompting a consumer backlash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Lyft parlayed a warm and fuzzy image that it used to cultivate by adorning drivers' cars with a fluffy pink mustache to position its brand as the more socially responsible of the two ride-hailing rivals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite Lyft's recent inroad, there is still no guarantee the company will become profitable — a risk flagged in its own regulatory filings leading up to the IPO. Developing autonomous vehicles is key to reducing driver costs, and Lyft is behind competitors such as Google spin-off Waymo, which has begun testing a ride-hailing service using its robotic minivans in the Phoenix area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cutting costs by reducing pay to drivers also could prove difficult, a challenge underscored by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11735251/lyft-and-uber-drivers-in-s-f-l-a-stage-one-day-strike-in-push-for-higher-wages\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">protests staged earlier this week over wages\u003c/a> that drivers complain already are too low.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even so, Lyft's revenue per ride has been increasing, so some analysts see the company as headed in the right direction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft's co-founders Logan Green and John Zimmer have structured the shares so that together they will hold 49 percent of the voting power, enough to substantially influence major decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyft has focused on its mission of getting people to give up their personal cars in favor of ride-hailing, shared bikes and scooters, and has remained in North America. By contrast, Uber has expanded overseas and recently bought Careem, a major rival in the Middle East, while experimenting with food delivery, boats and freight operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's become increasingly common for unprofitable tech companies to go public, and the percentage of money-losing tech companies that entered the market in 2018 rivals 2000, when the dot-com bubble burst, according to data from Jay Ritter, finance professor at the University of Florida. Some, like Amazon, which took several years to turn a profit after its IPO turned into great bets for early investors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post will be updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

And 44 percent say they’re considering leaving the area in the next few years. Some 6 percent say they’ve had it and plan to depart the region this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheer expense of getting by in the Bay Area topped the list of reasons residents see life here getting tougher, with 83 percent citing the cost of housing as an “extremely serious” or “very serious” problem, and 81 percent pointing to the cost of living as a major problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also high on the list of grievances were two longstanding issues: homelessness, which 79 percent named as extremely or very serious; and traffic congestion, cited by 76 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poll, produced by the \u003ca href=\"https://svlg.org/bay-area-voters-ready-to-pull-out-pocketbooks-to-solve-traffic-problems-but-not-as-likely-when-it-comes-to-the-housing-crisis/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silicon Valley Leadership Group\u003c/a> and Bay Area News Group, surveyed more than 1,500 people in Alameda, Contra Costa, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We should all be concerned because that means we’re going to have a brain drain of talent and families that contribute to our communities that have simply given up and are going away,” said Carl Guardino, president and CEO of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even if you can afford a home, it’s so often not anywhere near your job or your school or where you’re trying to get. People are so sick of it that they’re willing to make a U-turn right out of the area,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Discontent crossed all political, racial, ethnic, geographic and socioeconomic divides, according to the survey. But African-Americans (71 percent), renters (58 percent) and people younger than 40 (55 percent) were the most likely to say they were looking to move out of the Bay Area in coming years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Willingness to Pay for Transportation Solutions\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A second survey tested sentiments about two other issues: voters’ willingness to tax themselves further to pay for major transportation infrastructure projects and whether they’d be willing to get behind a complex package to address the region’s housing affordability crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About two-thirds of the 1,900 respondents — this time from all nine Bay Area counties — said they’d support some major funding initiative to pay for a “world-class” transit system, modernizing highways and investing in bike and pedestrian pathways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The survey found that 71 percent of respondents asked about a 1-cent regional sales tax for transportation said they’d support the levy; 64 percent backed the idea of a $50 billion bond measure to be paid for by a new tax on businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The idea of a new regional transportation levy — which backers have been quietly promoting for the past 15 months or so as a “\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11637275/you-say-you-want-a-new-bridge-or-2nd-bart-tube-heres-how-you-might-pay-for-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mega-measure\u003c/a>” for a future ballot — won large margins of support from all age groups, from both renters and homeowners, and Democratic and independent voters. Among Republican respondents, 52 percent opposed a levy and 38 percent were in favor of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were some regional variations in the response, too, with the most populous Bay Area counties all giving an enthusiastic thumbs up to a transportation tax. The survey found 79 percent of San Francisco voters supported the idea, with 76 percent support in Alameda County, 68 percent in San Mateo and 66 percent in Santa Clara. Just 46 percent of respondents in Napa County and 49 percent in Solano County supported a new tax.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Silicon Valley Leadership Group’s Guardino said his organization — along with the \u003ca href=\"https://www.bayareacouncil.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area Council\u003c/a>, which represents more than 300 businesses, public agencies and media companies, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.spur.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SPUR\u003c/a>, a regional urban planning group — is responding to Los Angeles County’s success in passing a 1-cent sales tax measure to fund major transportation initiatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve had L.A. envy in that Los Angeles in 2016 passed a permanent 1-cent sales tax that will generate around $120 billion for transit in its first couple decades,” he said. “So we continue to see if that’s possible. … It’s pretty darn clear that the climate seems right, so it’s time to get to work and find out specifically what voters are willing to invest in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Limited Support for Regional Housing Plan\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While voters acknowledged the region’s crippling housing costs in the first of the new surveys, the second poll found a lukewarm response to an ambitious regional housing plan known as the \u003ca href=\"https://mtc.ca.gov/our-work/plans-projects/casa-committee-house-bay-area\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CASA Compact\u003c/a>. It includes an array of housing proposals, like a cap on rent increases and mandates for more dense housing around transit, and it would require approval from the state Legislature, not voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, the poll asked voters if they would support the “proposed wide-ranging plan to include revised development rules to make it easier to build housing, a region-wide rent cap and tighter limits on evictions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just 43 percent of respondents supported the plan, with 42 percent opposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What our pollster was trying to do was to best describe the CASA compact to find out how taxpayers feel,” Guardino said. “Over the months ahead, voters will inform us, rather than the other way around, on what they’re willing to tax themselves on. They’ll tell us if it’s a regional transportation measure or steps to address our housing crisis, or neither, or both.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Specific parts of the CASA plan would need voter approval — namely, any tax that would fund a proposed regional housing agency. That agency would use the money to provide emergency rent assistance to tenants, help cities plan for development and purchase land for affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Covarrubias, CEO of the real estate developer TMG Partners and a co-chair of the CASA coalition, said it would have made more sense to only poll voters on the housing ideas that could end up on the ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would argue the poll didn’t ask the right question or was somewhat misleading,” he said. “It’s not that the Bay Area doesn’t support housing; in fact it does.

This evidence, together with newly refined satellite data available to FAA this morning, led to this decision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=”right” citation=\"Peter Goelz, former NTSB managing director\"]‘I am beginning to be concerned about this airplane.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.faa.gov/news/updates/media/Emergency_Order.pdf\">The emergency order\u003c/a> is effective immediately. Any Boeing 737 Max 8 and Max 9 planes that were in flight when the order was issued “may proceed to and complete their soonest planned landing” — but they are not permitted to take off again. The order remains in effect until the FAA rescinds or modifies it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FAA says it made the decision on the basis of new information it discovered in the course of investigating wreckage from the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302. The agency says there are 74 Boeing 737 Max 8 and Max 9 planes registered in the U.S., and 387 worldwide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement Wednesday, Boeing said it “continues to have full confidence in the safety of the 737 MAX.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“However, after consultation with the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), and aviation authorities and its customers around the world, Boeing has determined — out of an abundance of caution and in order to reassure the flying public of the aircraft’s safety — to recommend to the FAA the temporary suspension of operations of the entire global fleet of 371 737 MAX aircraft.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11732498]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For days, the FAA had said the planes are safe to fly. Major U.S. airlines such as Southwest — which uses 34 of the Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft — also expressed confidence in the plane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Southwest seemed to indicate in \u003ca href=\"https://www.swamedia.com/releases/release-daf60ecafe4ecff4f2a50ff5c0020cdc-statement-regarding-the-boeing-737-max-8\">a statement\u003c/a> Wednesday that it had been caught off guard by the U.S. decision to ground the planes, saying the airline is “aware of media reports stating that the Boeing 737 MAX 8 fleet will be grounded in the United States. We are currently seeking confirmation and additional guidance from the FAA and will respond accordingly in the interest of aviation safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American Airlines said it had been informed earlier in the day that the entire Boeing 737 Max fleet would be grounded “out of an abundance of caution.” The emergency order will affect 24 of the airline’s planes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FAA said Monday that it would require Boeing to improve how the 737 Max flight control systems work, along with other design changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Sunday’s crash, Ethiopian Airlines grounded its four remaining 737 Max 8 planes. Dozens of countries, including Germany and China, also grounded their airlines’ 737 Max 8s. In some places, such as India, Australia and the European Union, aviation authorities have banned the entire 737 Max family of planes from their airspace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Canada took action Wednesday, with Transport Minister Marc Garneau \u003ca href=\"https://www.canada.ca/en/transport-canada/news/2019/03/minister-garneau-statement-regarding-restricting-airspace-to-boeing-737-max-8-and-9-aircraft.html\">announcing restrictions\u003c/a> barring “any air operator, both domestic and foreign,” from flying the Boeing 737 Max 8 and 9 through Canadian airspace. Air Canada has taken delivery of 23 of the 737 Max planes, according to \u003ca href=\"http://www.boeing.com/commercial/#/orders-deliveries\">Boeing\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite previous reassurances in the U.S. about safety, concerns have continued to mount. Peter Goelz, a former managing director of the National Transportation Safety Board, told NPR:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have to say that yesterday was the first time I started to really have concerns myself, because I’ve worked with the British investigators and regulators. I’ve also worked with the German investigators. And I have the highest regard for them. These are not folks that would make haphazard judgments. So, I am concerned that some of the finest regulatory and investigative groups have now called for the grounding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am beginning to be concerned about this airplane.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/702936894/703012942\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Describing how the FAA functions, Goelz said the agency — which has sent a team of investigators to the crash site in Ethiopia — is “data-driven” and doesn’t make decisions on anecdotal evidence. “They really have a close working and regulatory relationship with Boeing,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. aviation system is essentially governed through cooperative and voluntary relationships between the government and manufacturers, Goelz said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are not enough inspectors on the payroll to really have a ‘Gotcha!’ oversight,” he said. “So they cooperate very closely. And it’s a relationship that encourages the admittance of mistakes, it’s a relationship that has given us a very great system. But in times like this, it’s a relationship that certainly people question.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those questions include speculation about whether Boeing executives might have tried to influence the Trump administration in an effort to tamp down safety concerns about the 737 Max 8 — the fastest-selling plane in Boeing’s history, with \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/11/702211493/boeing-737-max-involved-in-two-crashes-is-fastest-selling-plane-in-companys-hist\">more than 5,000 ordered\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg has spoken directly to Trump about the crash, \u003ca href=\"https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ethiopia-airlines-trump/ties-between-boeing-and-trump-run-deep-idUSKBN1QT2MQ\">according to Reuters\u003c/a>, which notes that the two men have also spoken several times in the past — including negotiations over the price of the new Air Force One. The news agency also notes that acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan was a longtime Boeing manager. And Nikki Haley, Trump’s former U.N. ambassador, has been nominated to join Boeing’s board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The questions are surfacing months after U.S. pilots criticized Boeing in the wake of the Lion Air disaster, saying the plane-maker had not provided enough information or training about a critical aspect of its new flight control system, as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/11/15/668135787/airline-pilots-raise-concerns-about-boeings-737-max\">NPR’s David Schaper reported\u003c/a> in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pilot of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 reported having flight control problems with the Boeing 737 Max 8 in the minutes before it crashed, airline CEO Tewolde GebreMariam says, providing new details about the disaster that killed 157 people on Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11732655\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/boeing-737max-ethiopian-airlines-267708a79c1ab9412d6e21dbec4b4329fea8b6d4-800x599.jpg\" alt=\"Relatives of the 157 people who died in Sunday's crash of a Boeing 737 Max 8 were allowed to visit the site of the disaster Wednesday.

Dozens of countries, including Germany and China, also grounded their airlines’ 737 Max 8s. In some places, such as India, Australia and the European Union, aviation authorities have banned the entire 737 Max family of planes from their airspace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Canada took action Wednesday, with Transport Minister Marc Garneau \u003ca href=\"https://www.canada.ca/en/transport-canada/news/2019/03/minister-garneau-statement-regarding-restricting-airspace-to-boeing-737-max-8-and-9-aircraft.html\">announcing restrictions\u003c/a> barring “any air operator, both domestic and foreign,” from flying the Boeing 737 Max 8 and 9 through Canadian airspace.
