Honeycutt named mayor of Hesperia
When Tracie Troha started work at the Daily Press, I thought I would give her some advice about covering Hesperia. I let her know who the players were, how they related to each other (officially and otherwise), gave her a bunch of important phone numbers and took her around to meet some folks. I also gave her some advice about the various government meetings in the city:
News happens places other than just at meetings, but it also happens at meetings. Sometimes, the biggest news stories aren’t on the agenda, and you won’t know about them unless you attend even a meeting where “nothing is going to happen.”
Well, unfortunately, she actually listened to me, and is kicking butt up and down Main Street. So she does stories like this one in today’s Daily Press, meaning I have to figure out a second day approach to the same news for next Tuesday’s edition of the the Hesperia Star.
How dare this new reporter actually make me work harder, smarter and better?

“news” happens. you missed an “s”. Also, it’s somehow still on “Beau” (despite having logged out) … I’ll work on that.
