This simple piece of departmental arithmetic should make it evident that failure to retain any particular person constitutes neither an act of "firing" (as some observers would have it) nor does it reflect on the excellence of those who leave. To interpret otherwise is to do injustice to them as well as to the departmeet. Why then all the concern with the department's recent decisions? The answer of course is that those not retained included two people of "radical" persuasion and the handle which this lends to the charge that they would have been retained had their political views...
Died. Hans Globke, 74, durable German bureaucrat who became a powerful figure in the postwar government of Konrad Adenauer; of pneumonia; in Bad Godesberg.

We interpret the characters' very limited present-tense actions with that information; and when each expresses an insufficient response toward Agnes's death, we realize it is because they have only the barest grip on life...
...only understand what is going on from a ground or court level. Crimson sports writers are generally people who follow the sport they cover persistently and diligently through an entire season. And as such, we can observe trends and patterns that evolve. It is our responsibility to attempt to interpret these trends. We have opinions and we feel that opinions are the meat of vital sports reporting. This is the basic premise of sports writing...
