We decided to create this space as a place to break stories, update stories and feature analysis and outside comment. We also want to recognize the excellent investigative work done by other journalists elsewhere.

It's meant to be our take on the old-fashioned police blotter, where events of note were recorded as they unfolded.

We have one of the most accomplished groups of investigative reporters in the business and this space gives us another outlet to bring important stories to the public.
