ANNAPOLIS: In the shade of a car park in Maryland’s capital Annapolis, three journalists from the Capital Gazette typed grimly away — still without news of colleagues killed or injured when a gunman stormed the publication earlier on Thursday.
“We’re putting out a paper tomorrow,” vowed Chase Cook, one of six reporters at the daily. His photographer colleague Joshua McKerrow got to work snapping photographs of the response by law enforcement outside their newsroom. Cook was working from his smartphone — from which he could access the newspaper’s editorial system.
“I don’t know what else to do except this,” said Cook, who has worked since 2013 for ‘The Capital’, a local daily whose roots go back to 1727 said. “We’re just doing our job.”
Their deadline had been pushed back to 9:30pm (local time). The Capital newspaper published a 40-page edition on Friday.
Inside the newspaper, the pages were filled with details about the suspected gunman, the news organization’s origins in the 1720s and profiles on the five people who died
