Our first special guest was Steve Sebelius, a columnist for the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Steve regaled us on his career path, which included some early successes at a scrappy Sacramento paper and articles that shined light on corruption in the highest ranks of the state school system. He shared with us about his news diet -- which includes reading his own publication cover-to-cover -- and offered tips on how to build sources without getting problematically cozy with them.
Overall, we gathered a lot of great advice and beat the heat with iced coffee and smoothies on a 117-degree Saturday. A morning well-spent!
