The Beacon is brought to you by me, Kelsey Ryan, and our newsroom team. We're thrilled to be building newsrooms in Wichita and Kansas City to help tell stories that aren't being told. Kansans and Missourians want to be informed — to know that journalists are filing record requests, holding officials accountable and taking time to dig into the issues that matter. We promise to do our best to serve you, our communities, our readers and our neighbors.
