On this episode, Mark Simon is joined by Sean Lahman, Watchdog Reporter for The Rochester Democrat & Chronicle.
Sean talked about his career path - from working on baseball databases and sports encyclopedias to his current role with the D&C.
Sean talked about developing both technical skills and storytelling skills and how that allowed him to differentiate from others in the field. He gave examples of the many resources and databases he's created, and talked about the emotional challenges of covering difficult stories.
