In your career as a newspaper reporter, what's been the best story you got to tell? 

The best story in recent memory was about a free little league created and run by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Bolden Area Command, which polices Las Vegas’s Historic Westside. It was refreshing to hear officers talk about the importance of community building in their patrol area, and I was moved as I watched the kids bond with their officer-coaches.   How did you enjoy your work with the ACLU last summer?
