Beliefs 
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible and human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal certain key beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. 

This disclosure is not a license for our editors to inject these beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them. In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that our beliefs are on the record will force us to be ever mindful to write, report, and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you, the user, ever think you see evidence that we failed in this mission, we wholeheartedly invite you to let us know.


Politics

  • How would you describe your political beliefs?

I have voted for candidates of both Republican and Democratic parties. When deciding whom to vote for, I focus on what a candidate intends to accomplish and how he or she plans to improve the community in which I live.


Religion

  • How religious would you say you are? Casual, observant, devout, non-religious?

I'm an observant Catholic.

Liz: Thanks for the fantastic coverage of the inaugural Fairfield County Festival of Women Composers! It was great to have Mike there, and he did an awesome job of putting together the video package.

Thanks Liz! I'll send some sun rays your way. I may have inadvertently taken them in my December move from New Canaan.
