Adventures in newspapering:
β€’ Parade starts at 10 am
β€’ Reporter and photogs back in the newsroom by 10:30 am
β€’ Story flowed onto pages at 11 am
β€’ Final page sent at 11:17 am
β€’ Press starts rolling at 11:32 am; copies start hitting the streets as the *parade is still going on*!

Newsroom crushed it.
