The young reporter with the familiar Irish eyes wouldn't let Rep. Anthony Weiner get away with it. "The picture that went over Twitter to Genette Cordova -- is that you?," he asked, politely. Well, let's keep in mind what happened here," the Queens congressman replied, all feigned sincerity. "I was pranked, I was hacked, I was punked, whatever it was, someone sent out a picture. I'm an easy name to make fun of and I think that's what happened.

Fulfilling the deathbed request of Neimore, Bass became the Eagle's editor and publisher in March 1912, a career lasting over forty years until she sold the newspaper in 1951. In 1914, Bass hired and ; subsequently married Joseph Blackburn Bass, a Kansas newspaperman, who edited the paper until his death in 1934. They eventually changed the name of the paper to the California Eagle. The couple had no children, but Charlotta Bass was very close to her nephew John Kinloch, who worked at the California Eagle. Bass ran for several elected offices, including the Los Angeles City Council, Congress, and the U.S. Vice Presidency. She was also a founding member of California's Independe...
LONDON, July 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- A British government minister has said Costa Rican police are responsible for preventing police co-operation in the search for missing Michael Dixon.

[...] why should we even try? Because defining "journalist" and "journalism" is often necessary to allow reporters to gather and publish news.
Freedman argues for the value of practical undergraduate experience on a student-edited newspaper and - one presumes, as a professor at the university - for the value of graduate journalism education at Columbia, though he refers to a master's thesis there not as any sort of scholarly activity but as "in effect, a very long magazine article or a book chapter" (p. 148). [...] predictably, Freedman's world of journalism education has no place for public relations or advertising. [...] this is all the more reason for books of advice to beginning journalists to include information on actually getting that first job, on mastering new communication technologies, and on developing cross-platform writing skills to protect oneself against the unpredictability of the future, which in the United...

BLOOMINGTON - Not so long ago, children had the literal run of the neighborhood. By way of endless hours of unstructured play, free- form exploration and general mischief-making in streets, alleyways, yards and vacant lots, they developed a finer sense of imagination, independence, toughness and camaraderie that would pay dividends long into adulthood. This lost world of children at play - a time before television, videogames, the Internet, social media, overbearing parents, the obesity epidemic and who knows what all - is beautifully captured in a reminiscence by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Paul Scott Mowrer. Born in 1887, he spent his first 11 years in Bloomington, living with his family at 418 E. Grove St., a modest residence that's still standing today.
In the early days of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, a progressive Harvard Law professor and a conservative New York editorial page editor began a correspondence that lasted twenty years. The Democratic jurist and future Supreme Court Justice, Felix Frankfurter, had helped found the American Civil Liberties Union and the New Republic. His Republican journalistic cohort, Geoffrey Parsons, wrote for the New Deal's leading opponent, the New York Herald Tribune. Their correspondence reveals the evolution of a relationship between a journalist and a public figure and shows the mindset of the anonymous editor and the effect his editorial page had on an observer "not of his party." In the correspondence, the law served as "the cohesive power of a free society" and a common bond bet...
