After four rewarding years leading the VTDigger newsroom, I’m departing Vermont’s preeminent news organization. I’m excited to return to the work I most enjoy — reporting and writing — but I will miss VTDigger more than I can describe. And I will definitely continue to support this scrappy nonprofit as a monthly contributor. (Yes, this is a fundraising pitch, and I will ask you in boldface type to contribute by clicking this link!) Let me tell you why I’m planning to do so.
