I Need Your Help

Investigative journalist Bob Woodward says the four most important words in journalism are "I need your help."

Great stories share information that others care about. Maybe your grandchild finished second in a beach volleyball tournament at Hampton Beach. That piques my interest. Maybe she completed a marathon. 

If you have great news about your family member, send it along by email, text, social media message, or carrier pigeons if you have them.

Years ago a player from another school came up to an MVBer before a game, saying "I heard that you have players who were named to the All-Camp team at BC. We're gonna get killed." The Melrose player said, "I'll pass it along."
