It's called Chasing Hope, A Reporter's Life.
You might think that a book whose subtitle is A Reporter's Life would be called something like Chasing Truth or Chasing the Facts, not Chasing Hope.
And I do think that we've overdone the despair and that a little dollop of hope can help us actually address all these challenges, which are very real and around us.
I'm not a kind of Pangolassian optimist that everything is gonna work out.
I don't think that people really appreciate just this stunning material and moral progress of our lifetimes.
