GENERAL COMMENT A good mix of stories, from an interesting people profile to very in-depth reporting of relevant topics of the day. A few took on some very important and difficult subjects, reporting in a delicate manner that showed the professionalism one would expect from a seasoned, senior reporter. Great job all around.
