Journalism and Communication Faculty Publications

Perhaps we've paid too much attention to issues of hiring minorities and diversifying newsrooms, avoiding the tougher questions of content, coverage and newspapers' role in a pluralistic society. After each annual newsroom nose-count is completed, where do newspapers stand on issues of performance?

Surviving To The Top: Views Of Minoritynewspaper Executives, Ted Pease, Guido H. Stempel Iii

Journalism and Communication Faculty Publications

There are painfully few nonwhites among the ranks of top newspaper executives. Those who have survived in the business long enough to become assistant managing editors or higher frankly discuss the barriers they encountered on the way up, and the blows that knocked some minority colleagues off the ladder.

The Rhetoric Of Rescue, Mary Blakeman

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This thesis examines the television reporters' verbal depictions of two rescue events, the rescue of Jessica McClure in 1987 and the rescue of three whales at Pt. Barrow, Alaska in 1988, in order to discover what rhetorical techniques were used to appeal to the public interest.
