Good lord, I hope I've been able to keep up, given that I've been part of the team covering all of this.
Good morning. I'm at the San Bernardino County Government Center. It's the first board of supervisors meeting since the FBI served warrants at Supervisor Curt Hagman's home and office a week ago. It's not clear if Hagman will show. Open session is scheduled to start at 10 a.m.
OK, now it's officially Election Night. NY slices from Slices & Swirls in Loma Linda.
A Yarbrough Family tradition: Election Day breakfast at a diner (today it was Norm's) while we talk about what's on the ballot.
Excited to learn and take home lots of actionable ideas at this @facoalition.bsky.social workshop.
Inland Empire journalist friends: I attended a @facoalition.bsky.social workshop last year and it was fantastic, resulting in stuff in already published stories and stories still to come from me over the next few weeks. I cannot recommend this upcoming workshop at KVCR enough.
Well, this is crap. This was the best of its category (“cool reporting we did this week”) podcast. Hoping this team lands somewhere that appreciates them more soon.
The most disturbing thing in this record I've obtained from the Ontario Police Department is that they printed off two pages using Comic Sans.
Does the non-journalist general public know what "enterprise reporting" is without having to look it up?
Family members of the people murdered in the attack leave white roses atop the memorial in the Peace Garden.
CSUSB President Tomás Morales: "Thank you, family members, for allowing us to grieve with you."
The bell is rung 14 times, one for each victim. The bell will be silent for the next 12 months.
Good afternoon. I'm now at Cal State San Bernardino's Peace Garden, dedicated to the memory of five alumni who were murdered in the Dec. 2, 2015 mass shooting at the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino.
The name of each of the 14 people murdered is being read out, followed by the bell being rung.
Gonzales: "We never give up, we never back down. ... May we honor those that are lost by living with the same courage and compassion this community has shown for the past 10 years."
About 100 people gathered here today, many of them county staff. Thirteen of the 14 people murdered worked for San Bernardino County.
Good morning. I'm at the Curtain of Courage memorial in downtown San Bernardino for a memorial for the 14 people killed in the 2015 mass shooting.

Music is now playing, along with cowbells being rung and more chanting. The crowd remains at about 300.
The No Kings protest in San Bernardino, which is scheduled to run until 3 (as I recall), has grown to about 300 people.
