Marshall saw "a natural progression from the ministry to muckraking." "Both are valid ways of serving a higher cause." "God calls us to publish the truth, not propaganda." In this 2018 essay, he plumbed the biblical basis for investigative reporting: https://t.co/aGtizTHuMw

Some people say journalists are “godless.” But I spent five years in full-time Christian ministry, and my faith has made me a better reporter.
.@marshallallen is the only person I know who started with a theology degree, then became an investigative journalist. He had a powerful perspective on what it meant to do accountability journalism as a Christian. His death is such a loss for us all: https://t.co/hRCnVhSYIC

This is devastating news. Marshall was a truly wonderful person and a great reporting partner. It was a honor to work with him. I am stunned.
I am absolutely devastated and shocked to hear that my former colleague and friend @marshallallen died. There are not enough words to describe what a wonderful, wonderful person Marshall was. This is beyond crushing. Please help his family.

I was one of the many affected by the recent layoffs at @WIRED. baby's first media layoff! I joined WIRED when I was 22, and I was very lucky to land at a place where I was given so much room to grow as a journalist.

I would think this was an April Fool's Day hoax that the company forgot to delete but @josephfcox talked to an anonymous "marketing professional" who described being pitched the product
New: a marketing company claims it actually *is* listening to people through smartphone/smart TV microphones to hear what people are saying and target ads. From Cox Media, called Active Listening. According to material online and person pitched on product https://t.co/Fgm57W2Pun
