Media and public writing

The old media page was very long and heavily weighted toward 2020 pandemic-crime coverage. This version highlights a smaller set of representative items and leaves room for later additions or archives.

Selected media
  • Philadelphia Inquirer
    Coverage of labor-market effects of the FTC’s proposed noncompete ban.
  • Freakonomics Radio
    Featured in “Is New York City Over?”
  • The New York Times
    Quoted on crime patterns during the pandemic and the surge in homicides.
  • NPR
    Discussion of how overall crime changed during the pandemic even as shootings and killings rose.
  • The Economist
    Quoted on whether fears of a broad crime wave were overstated.
How to maintain this page

Keep this page selective. Add only notable interviews, podcast appearances, op-eds, and major media mentions. If you want an archive, add a lower section grouped by year so the top of the page stays current.

Because the old page contained dozens of links, this version is intentionally curated rather than exhaustive.

A good maintenance rule: keep 5–8 highlights here, then move older items into an archive section below or a separate media archive page.
