This week’s guest is Craig Garnett, the longtime publisher and owner of the Uvalde Leader-News, the daily newspaper in Uvalde, a South Texas town of 15,000 that became national news on May 24, 2022, when 18-year-old Salvador Ramos opened fire in Robb Elementary School, killing 19 young children and two of their teachers, and injuring 17 others. Garnett and the Leader-News should serve as the model publisher and newspaper for how to show responsible leadership in the wake of such tragedy. Last month Garnett was the subject of a profile in the New York Times that extolled his role in the community before and after the Robb Elementary School shooting changed Uvalde forever.
