Why I Still Love Newspapers

I am a week late to this discussion, having recently reflected on my experiences in Iraq 20 years ago with the brave men and women of Georgia's 48th Brigade Combat Team.

Last week marked National Newspaper Week, a celebration close to my heart. As a columnist, I have the privilege of sharing my thoughts with readers, thanks to the editors, and then receiving feedback on those thoughts.

Over nearly three decades, I have formed meaningful connections with regular readers, despite never having met them in person. You, the readers, have been with me through both good and challenging times, offering constructive criticism when needed.

Your engagement is what confirms the value of this column, as evidenced by the responses I receive when I make an error or provide incorrect information.
