Editor of the News & Record, John Robinson, says that he is often asked why he is not taking up the generous severance package.
“The easy answer is also the true answer: I love what we do. If you believe, as I do, that the purpose of journalism is to provide people with the information they need to be free and self-governing then no other job will do,” he writes.
