I’m a sentimental fool who still believes in the power of local news coverage. Just like Superman.

Before Purdue offered Drew Brees a scholarship, he was on his way to Brown University. Once, I asked him how his life might have turned out differently. Without missing a beat, he said, ”Maybe I would have been editor of the timespicayune.” He would have been great at that too!

America didn't forget the struggles of New Orleans after Katrina, and Louisiana can't forget the struggles of Lake Charles after the two storms of 2020. Here is how The Advocate NOLA.com is keeping up with Lake Charles, and how you can too. theadvocate.com/lake_charles/a…

I'll be hosting a Town Hall with Gov. John Bel Edwards Wednesday at 11:30 about COVID spike #4, so what should I ask him? 50 people sent questions in just a couple of hours. What's yours? theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/ne…

I men with Gov. John Bel Edwards for a NOLA.com The Advocate Acadiana Advocate Virtual Town Hall this morning, and he answered many of your questions. If you missed it, it's available on replay, just like Columbo or Gilligan's Island. theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/ne…

Louisiana is a great place to be 364 days a year, but our good fortune sometimes fails us on Aug. 29. Come what may, you can keep up with the news on NOLA.com The Advocate Acadiana Advocate nola.com/news/hurricane…

We have no internet, no power. The mail isn’t delivered. My Amazon order was supposed to arrive 9/2 but I haven’t seen any of their trucks. Yet an ancient device for conveying information, relying on ink & paper, has been sitting on my driveway every morning since Hurricane Ida.

The great New Orleans newspaper war began ten years ago today. Couldn't have happened without the courage and commitment of the Manship family and Dathel and Joh Georges. NOLA.com

40 years ago today, Bear Bryant died in Tuscaloosa. There was no internet or cellphones, so how did folks find out? For the next few hours, if you picked up the phone in Alabama, you couldn't get a dial tone.
