There’s a small wooden sign that hangs by my desk in the newsroom:
Everybody is entitled to my opinion.
It was more than a little fitting during my 13 years as editorial page editor. Now, with my new job of overseeing The Evening Sun’s digital media, I thought about turning that sign over to Marc Charisse, as he adds the opinion page to his own considerable responsibilities.
But Marc knows me well, so he’d probably be the first to predict that everybody will still be entitled to my opinion.
Besides, that sign might be a relic of my past, but it will remind me that what we do now is what we’ve always done: Inform and educate our community.
The biggest difference is we can do it much better than ever before.
