        I could not have lasted as a crime reporter but one thing it did teach me was, when memorializing what is often some of the worst days of ppls lives, it requires emotion. You have to care for the stories to read like it's something worth caring about

        Who would you rather have covering your kid’s school board and school admin: A dispassionate third party with no connection to the schools Or A professional journalist who also has kids in the same school and wants what’s best for her kids and yours?
