When considering how media training and social media have changed celebrity interviews in the last decade, entertainment reporter Anthony Breznican (@breznican) shares with DEPTH PERCEPTION that people are more cautious about what they say because things are so often taken out of context.
He shares that “people just don’t want to say what’s on their mind, and I think that’s a pity. I think saying what’s on your mind is how we open people’s minds — and how you sharpen your own opinion if you disagree.”

You probably run into twins in your day-to-day life but they’re probably not dressed alike. Yet during the annual Twins Days Festival in Twinsburg, OH, twins celebrate their sameness, walking in the parade and competing in costume contests.
But the event is about more than matching outfits and genetic curiosities; it’s a meditation on human connection, community, and what twins might teach the rest of us about combating loneliness in an increasingly isolated world.
Check out Long Lead’s feature DOUBLE MEANING and the TWINS FEST documentary — finalist for Society of Publication Designers Feature Video, Documentary, and Video of the Year —today at the link in our bio.
Don’t call @davidsirota a liberal journalist. Ever. Though the journalist and founder of investigative news outlet The Lever covers people who would label themselves conservative, Sirota is driven by one of journalism’s overarching ideas: to hold the powerful accountable.
For DEPTH PERCEPTION, Sirota talks with @jennaschnuer about what it takes to lay out the facts about the country’s most powerful people, his devotion to transparency and fact checking, and the process of turning cut and dry reporting into a gripping podcast.

In Long Lead’s new feature BORDER LINE WAR, Magnum photographer Thomas Dworzak captures the impact of the war in Ukraine on its neighboring countries: their perceptions of and relations with Russia, the influence of the U.S., and the evolution of their own national security policies after the invasion.
Dworzak began traveling along the Russian border from Norway to eastern Kazakhstan in 2023, documenting military training, landscapes, museums, and ordinary life, exploring the tensions linked to a painful past that’s been reawakened by Putin’s imperial push into Ukraine.
With expert analysis from foreign affairs columnist Christian Caryl, BORDER LINE WAR shows how countries from the Arctic, through the Baltics, and down into heart of Asia have held the line with Russia — and what it’s like when the cold wind of war blows through this new Iron Curtain.

The New York Times’ Public Editor role was in charge of fielding hundreds of emails per week from readers, elevating complaints and criticisms to the paper itself.
Margaret Sullivan, who was the fifth public editor, doesn’t buy why the paper ended up killing the role.
While The Times alleged that “social media had made the role unnecessary,” Sullivan shares with @parkermolloy for DEPTH PERCEPTION, “I don’t see any relationship between that and people tweeting ‘The New York Times sucks.’ Those are just two very different things.”

International journalist and documentarian journalist @joixlee had been living abroad prior to the Trump administration’s shift to more aggressive immigration enforcement. When considering coming back to the U.S. to report, Lee didn’t have a set plan for how she’d cover the story as a new freelancer, but she shared that “This is a time when I feel like it is important to exercise this American privilege and this American passport.”
With the deployment of ICE agents to Minneapolis, Lee decided to cover the story from the ground, sharing about the collective trauma the city is facing.

The Border Line War, Magnum’s second collaborative feature with @longlead, sees @thomasdworzak document the far-reaching resistance to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, and the pressure along Russia’s borders from Norway to Kazakhstan.
From 2023-25, Dworzak traveled thousands of miles to investigate the effects of Putin’s war in Ukraine, far from the front lines. Accompanied by foreign affairs columnist and former Moscow bureau chief Christian Caryl, he captured life in the Arctic, the Baltic region and across Asia, amidst Putin’s claim, “Wherever a Russian soldier sets foot is ours.”
From Cold War memorial sites to protests and graffiti, Dworzak’s images trace the history of Soviet occupation and uncover renewed tensions along Russia’s borders today.

While the Santa Anita Derby is a prestigious annual horserace held at Santa Anita Park in southern California every April, many don’t know that it once served as a temporary detention center for Japanese Americans after Executive Order 9066 during World War II.
In the very same stalls that horses are kept for the races, Japanese American families were housed prior to them being sent to different incarceration camps across the country by the U.S. government following Japan’s attack at Pearl Harbor.
Over two thirds of the people who were unjustly incarcerated by the U.S. government at this time were U.S. citizens.
As thousands flock to the grounds for the prep race on the “Road to the Kentucky Derby,” learn more about this time in American history at Long Lead’s feature, THE AGE OF INCARCERATION.
