FILM-WONDER WOMAN 1984-PATTY JENKINS — Patty Jenkins shattered the glass ceiling with “Wonder Woman” and has continued fighting for herself and paving a way for others. And soon, she’ll have a new franchise on her resume: Star Wars. By Film Writer Lindsey Bahr. UPCOMING: 800 words by 2 p.m., photos.
RACIAL INJUSTICE-FOOD RECIPE REPAIR — With a new Black editor in chief and promises to do better, a little corner of the Conde Nast universe is taking racial and cultural injustice one recipe at a time. Since July, Epicurious has been scouring 55 years worth of recipes from a variety of Conde Nast magazines. They’re looking for objectionable titles, ingredient lists and stories told through a white American lens. By Leanne Italie. UPCOMING: 1,000 words, photo.
CHRISTMAS-SANTA TRACKING — The North American Aerospace Defense Command used to monitor for signs of a nuclear attack, but this year they’re making sure the coronavirus won’t sideline Santa Claus from delivering gifts around the world. This is the 65th year for the U.S.-Canadian operation which has tracked the jolly old man since a child mistakenly called the base asking to speak to Santa. UPCOMING, with photos.
