For years, people have been asking Field Notes to make a Reporter’s Notebook. They tried a couple of times, but never seemed to be able to get it just exactly right. After all, the Reporter’s Notebook is an iconic American object. From The Front Page to All the President’s Men to Spotlight, the sight of one being whipped out and flipped open is a sure sign that somebody is about to write down something important.
