The annual Jake Engel “Hoops for Hope Barbecue” and basketball tournament at Cedar Beach in Mount Sinai raised a recordbreaking $10,000 — more than double of what was raised last year.

“We are happy that all of the hard work that went into organizing this event resulted in such a special evening at Cedar Beach,” the Engel family said in a statement. “The selfless support of our sponsors and the hundreds of community members in attendance filled the fundraiser with a profound sense of love. We were especially satisfied to see so many youth members of the community in attendance.”

The “Hoops for Hope” fundraiser was established in 2015 after Jake Engel’s death from a heroin overdose. The event, which was held on Aug. 4, brought together hundreds of people from the community to help fight heroin addiction, raise money for a scholarship in Jake Engel’s name and to help fund Hope

House Ministries in Port Jefferson.

“Substance abuse is the most serious threat to the lives of the American youth, and we hope that they can take the positive experience of the Hoops for Hope Barbecue, and the message that it represents, back into their schools and everyday lives,” the Engel family said. “Jake spent most of his time at the beach, and we know that his spirit smiled when all of us decided to come together and fight against the opioid issue.”

The free event included a 3-on-3 basketball tournament, barbecue style food, games, raffles and music.

“I am so happy for the outpouring of support for the Engel family and Hope House Ministries,” Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) said. “We can always count on the generosity of Brookhaven residents when it’s time to help their neighbors in need and this event was no exception.”

Teens in church’s youth group raise money for poor Through Compassion International, Mount Sinai Congregational, United Church of Christ can give clean water to communities in need

BY KEVIN REDDING KEVIN@TBRNEWSPAPERS.COM The soap suds were flying as young members of a Mount Sinai church hosed down dozens of cars this past Saturday to better the lives of children in need around the world.

During a car wash fundraiser Aug. 12 on the grounds of the Mount Sinai Congregational, United Church of Christ on North Country Road, members of the church’s youth group cleaned cars for three hours and raised $320 in donations. All proceeds are going toward clean and safe water filtration systems for impoverished communities in faraway countries.

In these areas, which include villages in Africa, Asia and South America, life-threatening diseases emerge from contaminated waters, taking the lives of a child every 15 seconds.

From the money raised, four $79 filtration systems will be purchased and delivered to these communities in need by Compassion International, a child-advocacy organization that’s been helping the poor worldwide since 1952.

Each village will receive a filtration system which also includes two buckets, a hose and training on how to maintain it so it can provide a lifetime supply of water.

“We got to choose what we wanted the money to go for,” Natalie, a 12-year-old church member from Rocky Point, said during the car wash.

When she and others in the youth group, which is made up of fifth through 12th grade students from five local school districts, saw the water initiative among a long list of others on the Compassion International website, Natalie said it immediately excited them.

“A lot of people are getting — Jake sick because they’re drinking dirty water, so we chose to do something to give them clean water,” she said “It makes me really happy to know someone else is going to have a better life because of this. It’s one of my life goals to help people around me, and make the world a better place.”

Natalie’s youth group friend Sylvia, 12, from Selden, said she was also moved by the idea, and decided to join the cause.

“To me that’s just incredible,” Compassion International communications director Tim Glenn said upon hearing about the car wash.

“To see youth — 10- to 12-year-olds — come together to raise money to change a family’s life like that — I just love that. In 2017, a day and age where we’re told to think of ourselves first, there are teenagers and young people out there who are putting the needs of others first, to make sure their basic needs are met.”

Mount Sinai Congregational began its partnership with Compassion International roughly a year ago when a member on the church’s Board of Christian Outreach decided to sponsor an 8-year-old girl from Kenya named

Kanana Ferry through the organization.

A first-grader living in the village of Ruiri, Ferry has become an honorary member of the church’s youth group through letter correspondence and is frequently provided tuition assistance, books and games.

“From there, the kids got interested and thought that any child should have water, any child should be able to go to school; they’d say ‘let’s do more,’” said Mary Larson, one of the youth group leaders. “I’m so proud of them that they’re taking their Saturday to do this. It’s important to help those who are marginalized, but they’re also working together to get this done.”

While Natalie, Sylvia and 10-year-old Jake scrubbed Toyotas and Mercedes with sponges and sprayed windshields and each other with water, other kids held up signs on the side of the road waving more cars in.

“In a few hours of the day, a world change can be made,” said Jake, from Stony Brook, before washing down a pickup truck.

Earlier this year, the kids raised more than $200 to donate chickens and miscellaneous

supplies to help families in need, and regularly host fundraisers to pay for mission trips.

Youth group leader Stephanie Clark, who grew up attending the Mount Sinai church, said she’s always happy to see how enthusiastic the kids are about helping others.

“It’s very exciting,” said Clark, whose husband Michael also became a youth leader. “I think it’s good to have a community like this growing up. And growing up in this church, when I was young, I looked up to older members and now they look up to older members.

That’s just how we are.”

Glenn said he personally visited some of the poor villages in South America and witnessed how much the water filters boost the morale of families. Each filter produces up to one million gallons of clean water and lasts years, he said.

“I want to thank the youth group and church so much for stepping up and changing the lives of families,” Glenn said. “Thank you for thinking beyond yourselves and taking the time out of your busy schedules to do something like this for others you may never meet.”

‘The best part about it is it’s like old school baseball and mitts with the family, but in an environment where it can be very competitive or as leisurely as just hanging out in the backyard and having some fun.’

— Bill Kidd

Brookhaven hosts tourney with new backyard, beach game

By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewspapers.com Back in the 1980s, Setauket natives Bill Kidd and Andy Matthews would often spend their summer days fishing and clamming on the Long Island Sound.

But when they returned to shore, the best friends were the only ones playing TriCrosse — a then-brand new toss-and-catch game in which two players with scoop rackets throw a ball back and forth trying to score into goal nets set up in front of their opponent.

That’s because Kidd and Matthews made it up in their backyards.

“We started off tossing and catching a ball with some lacrosse-like rackets, and then got some fishing and crab nets from the shed to stick in the ground so we could be a little competitive with each other,” said Kidd, 48, laughing. “We thought, ‘This is kind of fun, it’s neat to aim this thing and try to get a goal.’ It kind of grew from there.”

On Aug. 12, more than 30 years after its creation, TriCrosse was played by kids, teens, moms, dads, uncles, aunts and grandparents along Cedar Beach in Mount Sinai during the first Town of Brookhaven-sponsored Fight Breast Cancer TriCrosse Tournament.

The fun-filled event, made up of 28 registered locals and dozens of spectators, pit players against each other in a double-elimination style and marked the game’s first public tournament since it was officially rolled out into several small stores and made available online in April.

Even though most of the tournament participants had never played TriCrosse before, it didn’t take long for them to get into it.

“It’s borderline addicting,” said Kevin McElhone, 25, of Huntington. “As soon as you get the racket in your hand, you can stand out here and do this for hours.”

So far, the portable game — which contains two goals with three different sized nets on each, two bases for indoor and outdoor play, two plastic rackets, two balls and a large

carry bag — is on shelves at Amity Harbor Sports in Amityville as well as toy stores in Lake Placid and Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

“It’s very fun, it’s great exercise, just a great outdoor game,” said Richard Kryjak, 13, of East Setauket. “It’s definitely perfect to play on the beach.”

The TriCrosse team, which consists of Kidd, Matthews and Bill Strobel of Setauket, said they plan to meet with multiple retailers in the fall, as well as many physical education and camp conferences later this year to discuss expanding the game’s reach.

“I think I’m going to be a TriCrosse person in retirement,” said John Gentilcore, the former principal at Mount Sinai Elementary School.

“It’s important I have a good self-esteem because I’m probably going to be beaten by a 10-year-old. That’s OK, though.”

Matthews, the director of math, science and technology in the Mount Sinai School District, said the school recently bought four TriCrosse sets to bring into the gym curriculum.

“We want to be the ultimate outdoor game for people at beaches, in parking lots, tailgating, gymnasiums,” Matthews said.

Kidd said he likes to also think it can work in a variety of settings.

“The best part about it is it’s like old school baseball and mitts with the family, but in an environment where it can be very competitive or as leisurely as just hanging out in the backyard and having some fun,” Kidd said.

Although it has been a popular game in Kidd and Matthews’ close circles for years, TriCrosse was tucked away as jobs and families took priority.

That was until recently, when backyard games like Spikeball and KanJam made a splash on the market, encouraging the team to turn TriCrosse into a family-friendly product.

“The three things we’ve always heard from people is ‘What is that?’ ‘Where can I get it?’ and ‘You should be on Shark Tank’,” Strobel said. “It’s such a great family activity, which people really enjoy. Our big thing is also getting kids off the couch, getting them off of their phones and getting them out playing. I know

there’s a bunch of backyard games out there, but there’s nothing like this, which is cool.”

After it was released in April, Strobel brought TriCrosse and videos of game play to Brookhaven’s superintendent of recreation Kurt Leuffen in an effort to bring it to residents in a friendly, competitive setting.

Fifty percent of the proceeds that were raised during the event, $200 total, will be donated to the Stony Brook Foundation, which supports research, prevention and treatment of breast cancer.

“We’re not trying to make any money at this tournament,” Matthews said. “We just want to show people what it is and try to get the word out.”

Not much of the game has changed since Kidd and Matthews developed it, they said.

The rule is that each player stands behind the goals, which are about 50 feet apart, while throwing and receiving a foam ball with plastic rackets to try and score into any of the three nets for varying points. The first player to reach seven points in 10 minutes wins.

Fittingly, one of the last matches of the night was between the game’s two creators.

Kidd and Matthews struck the ball back and forth with glee as if they were teenagers in the backyard again.

Members of the North Country Peace Group and others stand on the corner of Routes 112 and 347 in Port Jefferson Station Aug. 13 to oppose hateful rhetoric of protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Rally opposing white supremacy springs up in Port Jeff Station The decision by lawmakers in Charlottesville, Virginia to remove a statue of Robert E. Lee, a general in the Confederate Army, from where it stands in the city, lit a fuse last week that burned all the way to the corner of Routes 112 and 347 in Port Jefferson Station and beyond this past weekend.

The decision sparked protests featuring unabashed Nazi salutes and chants, white supremacist-rhetoric and violence in Virginia. The volatile event resulted in injuries and currently one reported fatality at the rally as tensions escalated. During the Aug. 12 protest, an Ohio man allegedly drove a car into a crowd of counter protesters opposing the hateful rhetoric of those aligned with the Nazi-sympathizers, killing 32-year-old Charlottesville resident Heather Heyer and injuring many others, according to Virginia police. Two Virginia state troopers — Lt. H. Jay Cullen and trooper-pilot Berke M.M. Bates — assisting in the response to the protest, also died in a helicopter accident leaving the scene, according to a state police spokesperson.

Demonstrations were held across the country Aug. 13, including in Port Jeff Station and Huntington Station, to present a unified front against the groups propagating hate and violence towards non-white Americans and citizens. According to a spokesperson for the North Country Peace Group, a North Shore-based activist group responsible for organizing several rallies at that location and others nearby in recent months, about 125 people attended the Port Jeff Station rally.

“We came together as a community to send a message of unity, solidarity and peace,” Myrna Gordon of the North Country Peace Group said in an email. “What happened in Charlottesville will not be tolerated. Charlottesville is just a small fraction of what is happening in our country.”

Leaders from across the political landscape denounced the hate groups and violent actions.

“These violent acts inspired by deep hatred are disgusting, un-American and unwelcome in our great nation,” U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) said in an email through a spokeswoman. “Differences will always exist and it is OK to disagree in America, but the violence taking place today in Charlottesville is absolutely not the right way to disagree with each other.

We can and must do more to unite as a nation. There must be zero tolerance whatsoever for the extremes that try to tear us all apart. Patriotic Americans of all walks of life must come together and bridge those divides for the sake of our country and our people.”

The sun during a solar eclipse, left, and a boy wears protective glasses, above, during a partial solar eclipse from Arlington, Virginia, in 2014.

Experts share tips to enjoy the solar eclipse

BY JILL WEBB It won’t be an average Monday, Aug. 21, this year as the moon will completely block the sun for two-and-a-half minutes.

The day marks the first total solar eclipse to happen in North America since 1979, and it’s the first one to stretch from coast to coast in 99 years. In a total solar eclipse the disk of the moon seems to entirely cover the disk of the sun. This will happen Monday on a path about 70 miles wide.

Unfortunately, Long Island isn’t on the eclipse’s path of totality, but you still will be able to see a partial eclipse. New York will have about 71 percent of the sun covered during the eclipse. At 1:24 p.m. the eclipse begins on Long Island, and will last till 4:01 p.m. The peak eclipse time is 2:46 p.m.

“I think it’s wonderful for families to experience this with their children,” NASA expert Laurie Cantillo said. “It could be an experience like this that will get a child to stop looking at a phone or tablet and look up to the sky and perhaps motivate them to want to learn more.”

Fredrick Walters, an astronomy professor at Stony Brook University, has put together a list of ways to maximize your viewing experience of the eclipse. Walters said to focus on looking at the stars emerging during the daytime, the shadow bands that will appear across the land and the changing colors as the light fades.

Most importantly, you need to have the proper viewing tool: eclipse glasses. Regular sunglasses won’t cut it, and it’s very dangerous to directly expose your eyes to the sun.

“We’ve all been taught ever since we were kids don’t ever look directly at the sun and that advice applies,” Cantillo said.

“The only time it’s safe to remove eclipse

glasses is if you’re in the path of totality, during those couple minutes of totality.”

Unprotected viewing may not cause immediate pain, but Walters said he has heard of cases of people waking up the next morning with blurry vision or blindness. Some people can recover in months to years, but it’s not worth the risk.

The professor said that these special glasses are basically pieces of Mylar foil shielding your eyes. The glasses should be from proper sources that are certified by testing organizations.

“If you have a pair of eclipse glasses and want to test them, put them on and look — not at the sun — but just look at bright lights and things.” Walters said. “If you can see anything, throw them away. You shouldn’t be able to see [anything] except the sun.”

If you can’t get a pair of eclipse glasses in time, you can DIY them by putting a small round hole in an index card and project the image of the sun onto a flat surface.

“One thing you will notice if you don’t look at the sun through your glasses is if you look at the shadows on the ground, you’ll see the shadows are crescentshaped,” Walters said.

Leaves in the trees could act as projection tools too, casting multiple tiny crescent-shaped shadows on the ground.

During the partial phase, according to Walters, you won’t notice anything besides the sun getting dimmer.

“Unless, you look at the sun through your eclipse glasses, and you can see the sun is no longer circular — there’s a chunk taken out of it,” Walters said. “But, nothing much changes until you have the total phase of the eclipse because the sun just fades.”

Viewers along the path of totality will have a different viewing experience than Long Islanders.

“Inside the path of totality is completely different, it will be night for two and a half minutes.,” Walters said. “The sun gets completely blocked out, the corona of the sun is about as bright as the full moon, that will provide illumination.”

Walters also pointed out that in the path of totality, regular colors might appear different. Where sunrises and sunsets usually appear to have reddish tints, during the eclipse the tone will have a blue tinge. Another thing to notice is temperature; during the peak eclipse things will get colder.

Eclipses have provided researchers with data to uncover scientific discoveries. This time, the scientists are letting the public partake in their findings.

“One of the things that is being planned for next Monday is the National Solar Observatory and the National Science Foundation have handed out a number of telescopes [and] cameras to people along the eclipse line,” Walters said. “The idea is to have them take pictures and movies and stitch it all together to a 90-minute-long movie of how the sun’s corona is changing.

This has never been done.”

If you miss this eclipse, don’t fret because another one is coming April 8, 2024, that will run from Texas through Maine — and upstate New York will be in the path of totality.

“It’s almost a mystical experience — you really have to experience this,” Walters said. “It’s good scientifically, but it’s really a great thing to observe on a human level.”

News 12 meteorologist Rich Hoffman said in an email that the weather forecast for Aug. 21 is good, even though things could change between press time and the eclipse. Hoffman said mostly sunny skies are expected for the day with temperature highs near 84.

SWR is making music

Shoreham-Wading River school district students have worked to perfect their theatrical skills this summer during a five-week Music Institute and Theater Arts program and showcased their talents during three exciting musicals on Aug. 3 and 4 at Albert G. Prodell Middle School.

More than 150 students in grades K through 12 took part in this year’s program,

working collaboratively to create stage performances of “On Safari,” “Seussical Kids” and “Disney’s High School Musical Jr.” According to program director Paula AlbertFranz, the 42-year-old district summer mainstay enables students to create friendships, acquire team-building skills, learn responsibility and develop an appreciation for the performing arts, as well as enhance their musical studies through instrumental and vocal lessons.

We Care donates to NSYC

PSEG employee resource group EbRG We Care presented a $1,000 check to the North Shore Youth Council. Todd Leighley, an emergency service specialist and president of We Care, thanked NSYC Director Janene Gentile for all of the work the council does for kids and PSEG for the opportunity to participate in community outreach.

The NSYC offers comprehensive youth and family services and community education across the North Shore, including Port Jefferson, Wading River, Middle Island, Ridge and Coram.

“The council offers many age-appropriate activities,” Gentile said. “NSYC’s Summer Buddies is a funfilled development program for

SWR Roundout With daily themes and a schedule that includes art, gym, tennis and basketball, more than 150 students have been enjoying summer vacation during Shoreham-Wading River school district’s annual Roundout program.

Headed by recreation specialists Maria Mistretta and Bob Szymanski, the daily camp is filled with smiles, laughter and flourishing friendships. According to Mistretta, although the sessions are just three hours every morning, students enthusiastically embrace that

day’s activities. They work collaboratively toward the program’s culminating team spirit week and a race for each grade level to capture the spirit cup. A recent focus was on all things Hawaiian — with older students taking part in a tie-dye T-shirt lesson, while younger ones dressed the part in their colorful attire, including a few grass skirts.

Much of the organized play is provided by the student volunteers, who attended the summer program as campers and enjoyed it so much they came back to share the fun with the younger students.

OPINION Editorial

Safety questions and concerns

There’s no doubt that what happened at Sachem High School East Aug. 10 was a tragedy — no family should have to bury their child, no less a 16-year-old who was simply dropped off for summer football practice.

In the wake of junior Joshua Mileto’s death following a football drill, there are some serious questions. How tough should sports training and conditioning be for high school athletes? Are kids being pushed too far?

Are involuntary, offseason workouts supervised and held to the standards of an in-season, mandatory practice?

Mileto was killed during training camp when a 10-foot, 400-pound log he and four teammates were carrying over their heads fell and struck him — a drill similar to one employed by Navy SEALS, but with a log half as heavy. Were the coaches properly trained in how to perform the drill? Should a defensive back and wide receiver — especially one who is 5 feet 6 inches tall, 134 pounds and just 16 years old — be taking part in this drill?

Building camaraderie, coordination and strength are admirable goals in team sports, but having kids running beneath a log is a reckless way to try to achieve them. In this case, it was tragically reckless. The overwhelming number of injuries and deaths that occur during practices and, in some cases, games, are impossible to anticipate and fall largely under the assumed risks of playing any contact sport — but a death like Mileto’s is different. Risks were either ignored or missed, and clearly outweighed any potential reward.

Section XI Executive Director Tom Combs said in a statement that “sometimes coaches are in attendance and sometimes trainers are there, but it can’t be mandatory,” referring to offseason practices, which are not subject to the same restrictions and stanPhoto from Facebook dards as in-season practices. “It’s up to the individual schools on Joshua Mileto how they handle offseason workouts,” he added.

Although offseason camps are not mandatory, most 16- and 17-yearolds would likely assume it would be detrimental to their standing on a team to miss team activities, and they would probably be right.

The editorial staff reached out to districts and football coaches across our coverage area to find out about policies employed by our districts, or possible changes programs might explore as a reaction to the accident. While we understand there are legality issues that may arise, we were disappointed to be turned away by coaches and press contacts in attempting to gain some insight to find out what some of our North Shore standards are. It is beholden upon coaches at all times, especially in the aftermath of an unimaginable tragedy, to reassure parents that their kids are safe when dropped off for practice — voluntary or otherwise. They were not interested in telling us but we hope they’d tell you, if asked.

We believe, even with this being an offseason camp, there should be a swift rule response to protect young athletes. This unfortunate death has affected everyone, and the only way to learn from the incident is to talk about the problem, the dangers of football, and check our priorities. Safety should be the priority. We should be talking about how to prevent future tragedies.

Letters to the editor

Zeldin: This is a time to be an American Anyone associating themselves with the KKK and Nazism is associating themselves with hatred, bigotry, racism, intolerance and a tremendously inhumane past filled with horrible evil. This is one of the extremes that exist in our society that has a long history of trying to tear us apart.

We are still learning the facts of what happened in Charlottesville, and there is evidence that the violence came from multiple groups and multiple sides, and really no one can be defended who traveled to this beautiful, historic city for the sole purpose

of causing physical harm to others.

It’s indefensible.

For that domestic terrorist who drove that car through that crowded street, his homicidal behavior must result in a prosecution to the fullest extent of the law. For the protesters with pure, good, genuine and peaceful purposes, I think it is very important you were brave enough to be there to lend your voice. For any of the protesters on either side with extremist views and violent purposes, you are 100 percent completely in the wrong.

I have spent a great deal of

time in Charlottesville throughout my life, including an entire summer one year in the Army, and it really is one of the greatest cities we have in this country — so rich in history and culture, including our nation’s Founding Fathers.

This isn’t a time to be left or right, liberal or conservative, Republican or Democrat. This is a time to be an American. Quite candidly, every day should be the perfect day to be an American first. United.

Lee Zeldin U.S. Representative 1st Legislative District

Good people getting recognized for good deeds I want to applaud TBR News Media for running uplifting articles.

I enjoyed reading the editorial column on Aug. 10 in The Village Beacon Record titled

“Giving is great.”

It is always heartwarming to know that there are good people of all ages performing good deeds, and that they do get their well-earned recognition

from time to time.

Antoinette Donato Vice President Miller Place-Mount Sinai Historical Society

A clever new take on an old classic I just read Daniel Dunaief’s Aug. 10 “None of the Above” column titled “Who’s on first in

Trump’s Washington ballgame” in The Village Beacon Record.

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!

Thank you.

OPINION A plea for fact-based reporting from the left and right

J

ournalists need to embrace Detective Sgt. Joe Friday’s line from “Dragnet,” “Just the facts, ma’am.”

Caught up in intense public passions, journalists can either throw their opinions at the inflamed cacophony or they can seize an opportunity to do something that has escaped most politicians: Represent broader interests.

We live in a world of spin, where claims and counterclaims come out so

By Daniel Dunaief rapidly that reality has become a blur. The challenges in sifting through fact and fiction have increased as officials of all stripes shout their truths from the rooftops, even if they have an obstructed view of the world down below.

When I was in journalism school more than two decades ago, a good

D. None of the above

friend from Bulgaria, who was one of the few people who could pronounce my name correctly when she read it in my mailbox, shared her writing with me.

I noticed a flaw in the way she recorded dialogue. The quotes in her story often lacked the syntax and vocabulary that native English speakers possess. When I asked if she only spoke with other Bulgarians, she playfully punched my shoulder and said she needed to hear better.

That was an unintentional consequence of the way someone who spoke three languages translated the world.

The chasm today between what people say and what others hear, even those who speak the same language, has gotten wider. Editors and reporters return to their desks or take out their laptops, ready to share quotes, events and facts.

These fellow members of the media may find themselves seeing what they want to see, much like the parent of an athlete on a field or a coach who has become an advocate or cheerleader. In

editorials, where we’re clearly sharing an opinion, that works, but in news reports we should share the facts, offer context — and increase the value of fact-based reporting.

With facts under regular assault, the search for them, and the ability to verify them, becomes even more important.

A divided nation needs balanced, fair, accurate and defensible reporting. In their publications, scientists share materials and methods sections, which should allow other researchers to conduct the same experiments and, presumably, find the same results. Far too often, opinions disguised as news urge people to trust the writer. Why? Readers should be able to pull together the same raw materials and decide for themselves.

I know government officials don’t always deal in facts. I also know numbers can be repackaged to suit an agenda, turning any conclusion into a specious mix of farce and mental acrobatics. To wit, he’s the best lefthanded hitter every Tuesday there’s a full moon below the Mason-Dixon

line. Just because it’s presented as a fact doesn’t mean we have to report it or even mock it. If it’s meaningless, then leave it alone. The argument that other journalists are doing it doesn’t make it acceptable.

Several years ago, someone called to berate me for what he considered errors in my story. Rather than shout him down, I gave him the chance to offer his perspective. Eventually he calmed down and we had a measured, detailed discussion. This became the first of numerous conversations and interactions in which he provided important perspectives and shared details I might not otherwise have known.

Reporters face a public acutely aware of its own anger. Almost by definition in a country where the two major political parties struggle to find common ground, some group of readers disagrees with our coverage. We shouldn’t try to please everyone. In fact, we should try to please no one — we should merely work harder. It’s time to allow facts to speak for themselves.
