Ferguson, a nurse working 16-hour double shifts, knew instantly who she’d find in her hallway that day in February 2019. A domestic violence survivor who previously lived in a shelter, Ferguson had never been accused of child abuse, ACS case records show.

It’s a staggering reality — likely millions of warrantless searches a year — and one that has not been reported before. Ferguson believes her constitutional rights were violated that day at her apartment, and is now suing New York City in federal court.

Michelle Tokunaga had no idea what an NBC page was before she applied for the job in New York City. This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Michelle Tokunaga, a former NBC page who now works for Comcast in New York City. I had no idea what the NBC Page Program was or what a page even did when I applied to the prestigious 12-month fellowship. After a few more weeks of waiting, I got an email saying I'd gotten into the page program in October. They're trusting you to work SNL or The Tonight show — you have to be able to think on your feet under pressure.
