Comments on: Questions for Jesse Jackson today http://blogs.e-rockford.com/editorsnote/2009/09/02/questions-for-jesse-jackson-today/ Back in the old days -- that's less than a decade and before there were such things as blogs and interactive conversations with readers -- editors used to respond to their newspaper readers with an "editor's note." Sometimes it clarified a point made in a letter to the editor. Sometimes it offered a correction. Sometimes it was just a simple explanation. An editor's note was a handful of sentences; maybe a four or five paragraphs. It was always a personal link between the editor and the reader. Only difference between it and today's blog is the immediacy and the platform. Welcome to Editor's Note.

I was horrified watching him on a news cast describe the young man's body to a church congregation. How is that helping resolve the race conflict our community is experiencing? I've been invited to the meeting he's holding with the clergy today; I'm interested in where he plans to lead this meeting and group.
