KSLA News 12 Editorial: June 19th-KSLA News 12 Fan Drive

This summer temperatures are back in the 90's. It's another hot one. But because of your generosity, for hundreds of senior citizens in our area, the hot summer months have been just a little more bearable.


That's because of your contributions to the KSLA News 12 Fan Drive.

Every year, we work with the Council on Aging to collect fans. They then distribute the fans to seniors in our area to help keep them cool. For many, it's the only relief they get.

Almost every day, someone pulls up outside the KSLA News 12 studios and another shipment of donated fans come through the door. More fans are needed.
We'll continue to collect the fans until Labor Day and make sure they are distributed as soon as possible.  

Thank you for your help again this year.  

I'm James Smith.

    There may be no clear right way or a wrong way to handle a school shooting. At least in Maryland, where an armed school resource officer did his job, is an example of a better way, says Joe Sciortino, vice president and general manager of KSLA News 12.There may be no clear right way or a wrong way to handle a school shooting.

    Once again, we have a school shooting. This time, in Maryland, an armed school resource officer did his job. He jumped into action and engaged the shooter, who died at the scene. ... I would hope the number of armed school officers is growing.
