Welcome to McClatchy Journalism, a snapshot of the extraordinary journalism our newsrooms produce.
In this edition: The Miami Herald crafts a deeply personal picture of the lingering trauma for one survivor of the Parkland shooting; a series on Classrooms in Crisis from The State in Columbia, offering not only problems but solutions; a look Beyond the Bubble at why teacher protests proliferate across the country; a Fort Worth Star-Telegram examination of how rising property taxes threaten retirement; the tangible result of The Kansas City Star’s “Secret Kansas” series, which is now changing laws; a milestone story in El Nuevo Herald’s coverage of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, after which the U.S. officially called on Maduro to step down; and The Sacramento Bee on how police finally captured the East Area Rapist suspect.
A split-second decision saved his life in the Parkland shooting. The trauma haunts him.
