Today is a day I HATE the life an editor. Having to work while taking your kid to the ER is a bit beyond the pale. If you want to be a part of this biz, learn to do your job and problem solve. You can’t do this work with a brain in neutral.

I hopped onto a zoom meeting about the Heartland Flyer project today, wondering how to budget time for writing on it for my pub. Then I spotted the name of the incomperable Tim Carpeter in the room. I can’t think of a better backup plan.

Proud today. My son did not give up. Even when it looked like all was lost in overtime, he kept grinding. From all but beaten to victory in a second.

I once worked for and with Eric. I won’t lie, he and his family pissed me off more than once. But they told the truth and had motivations that were pure. That’s what I learned from him and his father - tell the truth. Let people make up their minds with the truth in front of them.
Eric Meyer, whose newspaper was raided by police last year, has a message for journalists struggling with their sense of purpose: Go on the offensive. #ksleg
