This list reflects confirmed coverage: items I have direct records for (media clip reports from 2015–2016) plus items verifiable through web search. The Daily Item alone has quoted me many more times than are listed here, particularly outside 2015–2016; older articles are difficult to locate through search alone. If you have additional clip reports, links, or citations, I’m glad to add them.
