About This Space

Thanks for tapping into my website.

This is a space where I will take a look at the world as it happens.   I cover the news for a living. It is serious.  It is tragic. It is uplifting.  News can be all of those things.  But in many cases, news can be funny.  It can be bizarre.  It can simply not make sense sometimes.   We’ll take a look at many of those happenings…and attempt to be even handed with all those we tackle.  After all, they are the important stories that shape our lives.  This site is meant to perhaps provoke a thought or two (including those stories examined with tongue planted firmly in cheek).  Maybe my take will make you smile, touch a nerve, or all of the above.

By the way, the photo below is me standing just beneath Johnnie Mercer’s Pier at Wrightsville Beach, NC. (photo courtesy: KReative_Works)

As I alluded to earlier, I’m a career journalist.  I’ve spent nearly four decades (and counting) presenting and covering the news on TV and radio (with a DJ job or two sprinkled in early on).   I’ve even held down a managerial role in radio news.   My true passion, however, has been and will always be talking to people on the street about what’s going on.  I relish those roots as a national radio correspondent based in (and around) New York City.

Hopefully I will be able to say in this space what many of you are thinking.  That said…

WELCOME TO MY WORLD!!

Enjoy!
