Today, Aug. 9, marks the first anniversary of The First Call newsletter's debut. The newsletter has evolved, our readership has grown and we continue to strive to be a must-read Monday through Friday — and, since March, even on Saturday. But we would like to hear from you, our readers. Let us know what you like or dislike, content you would like to see more of, and general thoughts. Email editor Stuart Hall.
Most of all, as we begin a second year, we appreciate your readership and support. Thank you.
