Beliefs
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs.
So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. This disclosure is not a license for you to inject your beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them.
In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that your beliefs are on the record will cause you to be ever mindful to write, report and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you ever see evidence that we failed in this mission, please let us know.
Politics
How would you describe your political beliefs?
I tend to be a fiscal conservative who believes society has an obligation to help and support the less fortunate among us.
For me, that doesn't mean government has to be the answer -- and it often isn't the best answer -- but it means government sometimes can be the answer.
Are you registered with a certain party?
I consider myself an independent.
Religion
I am a Christian, active at my local Episcopal church. I have been involved in a number of church committees, served on my church's vestry and I sing in the choir.
