A letter from Vox's editor in these troubling times

Swati Sharma on bringing clarity and nuance to readers in times of confusion.

Letter from the editor Swati Sharma Vox Editor-in-Chief & Publisher The news about the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally yesterday has left many of us with questions we don't yet have answers to, and concerns about the future of our country.  What we do know is that, as we've seen too often in this political era, speculation, innuendo, and conspiratorial thinking have polluted our discourse. The divide and polarization in this country were already so severe — what will this moment bring for our nation?  At Vox, we're trying to cover every moment with clarity and nuance, keeping our eyes focused on helping you understand what we're collectively witnessing — the kind of journalism that tries to bring you clarity when everything just feels so chaotic. Here are some resources to get you started, and you can expect more throughout the week: Here's what we know — and what we don't know Why our writer on democracy, Zack Beauchamp, is worried about what comes next Two theories on the political impact of the Trump assassination attempt Why honest disagreement is necessary for democracy Follow our continuing coverage here We know this is an unsettling moment. And we're here for you. If you have questions you want us to answer, please submit them here.  Sincerely, Swati Sharma This email was sent to edwardlorilla1986.paxforex@blogger.com.
