One editorial writer shares his experience covering mass shootings and other acts of gun...
yet another act of gun violence. I asked Nick what it’s like to have to cover this sort of tragedy time and time again. The Q&A below has been condensed for clarity.
It was a culture shock, coming to Texas, because gun culture is just not a thing in New York. So the first time I really had to write about a shooting in an intimate way was May 2018. Since I covered the Gulf Coast, I was in Galveston, and Santa Fe is about a 20-minute drive away. I got a text from one of the news editors saying that we were getting reports of an active shooter at a high school and asking me to check it out.
Because I had no real instruction, I just started talking to people. I tried to be sensitive, to get details without asking too much of people. You have to read their reaction to see how they’re dealing with it. It was a lot to unpack. Really, it was a crash course.
