Yours To Know
Questions about your rights to monitor your government -- either by attending public meetings or obtaining public documents -- are answered by California First Amendment Coalition attorneys.



Editorials
Editorials reflect the position of The Bakersfield Californian. Editorial positions are developed through deliberation of the newspaper's editorial board, which includes Publisher Ginger Moorhouse, Chief Executive Officer Richard Beene, Executive Editor Mike Jenner, Editorial Page Editor Dianne Hardisty, Deputy Editorial Page Editor Chris Bagdikian, Associate Editors Ed King and Tracey Cowenhoven, and community members. Editorials are unsigned because they reflect the newspaper's position, not the position of an individual writer.
