Your Beliefs
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. And if you ever see evidence that we failed in this mission, please let us know.

Dan keep up the good work. Keep reporting the truth. Please try to find out why the captain was not sent to jail to await his trial, while most people indicted in Stafford on one felony.are not allowed out on bond.

I don't get it...you are or are not in Fredericksburg? Your bio says you're "registered as an independent", but we don't register as anything in Virginia. And then the tagline on your photo says you were known for riding your bike to news stories in Fredericksburg, but I don't see any mention of your work here. I'm just trying to understand better the source of these news stories. Is this site something similar to The Digitel in Charleston, South Carolina, where they pull from other sources? Even the ads on the Fredericksburg page aren't local...they're from places in NoVA. Confused!?

Hi Mary! I actually rarely write for the Leesburg Patch. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't read it. How have you been??? It's been like 6 years!!!

Hi Bryce, No, I don't run Fredericksburg Patch. I help co-manage a dozen sites from here to Reston, Leesburg and Ashburn. Michael Theis does a great job with Fredericksburg Patch and I work with him a lot. Good hearing from you and good luck Tuesday
