For example, in the next paragraph, I mention a blog post by James (by linking to it).

Now, as part of the gradual federation of our platform, we\u2019re bringing some of those publications to the fediverse.\"Flipboard turns the fediverse on for a whopping 64 US-based local and regional publications. This is big news - if you'll pardon the pun - and an enormous step forward for bringing journalism onto the fediverse. I love how easy Flipboard has made it.\n\nI also really like this approach:\"To learn more about what fedi folks actually want when it comes to local outlets, we simply asked them. They told us the specific publications they\u2019d like to see, and voted in a poll on the region they were most interested in. (The Midwest, it turns out!)\"Asking people is always the best approach. And as I've learned, the fediverse is full of highly-engaged, well-informed people who are hungry for great journalism.\n#Fediverse\n[Link]",

Now, as part of the gradual federation of our platform, we\u2019re bringing some of those publications to the fediverse.\"</p></blockquote><p>Flipboard turns the fediverse on for a whopping 64 US-based local and regional publications. This is big news - if you'll pardon the pun - and an enormous step forward for bringing journalism onto the fediverse. I love how easy Flipboard has made it.</p><p>I also really like this approach:</p><blockquote><p>\"To learn more about what fedi folks actually want when it comes to local outlets, we simply asked them. They told us the specific publications they\u2019d like to see, and voted in a poll on the region they were most interested in.
