Who’s Reading Civil Beat?
Every week, as part of our birthday celebration, we’ll be sharing readers’ comments on the impact Civil Beat has had on them.
Robin Kaye from Lāna‛i City has been a monthly subscriber since July 2010. Robin shares why he values Civil Beat as a neighbor island resident.
We are so glad you’ve come into our lives. Your coverage of today’s relevant issues brings much-needed public focus to our democracy’s challenges. I love waking up to your emailed “Morning Beat” and perusing the variety of discussions you present. Given the threats to our island, I go straight to Sophie’s “Land Blog” to see what other inanities — besides Big Wind — are being proposed for Lāna‛i. I then go back to the top and meander my eyes through your reports on rail, transparency (or lack thereof) in government, conflict of interest, homelessness in Hawaii and much more. Your openness to community input (“Community Voices”) is incredibly valuable, unusual-for-Hawaii, and much appreciated. Inviting your readers to be your writers — sharing a portion of your electrons with us — makes Civil Beat an invaluable part of our daily conversation about life in Hawaii. — Robin Kaye
