You Need To Know This Stuff
As a journalist, I reported on every President from Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump. I covered Capitol Hill. I traveled the world, reporting on everything from wars to environmental issues. My work has won an Emmy, a Peabody, several Edward R. Murrow awards, a Jules Verne International Science Documentary award, and many more. All of my reporting was done in an objective manner, NEVER imparting my own feelings about the topic at hand.
But I’m retired now and, wow, do I have some things to say! I have moved to a happy life in the tropics of Central America, which allows me to view the current events of life in the USA through the wide angle lens of my Distant Perspective. To clearly see the “Big Picture” it is necessary to take these few steps back.
