The Army will begin testing its soldiers on the Army Combat Fit- ness Test version 3.0 in April, Sgt. Maj. of the Army Michael Grin- ston told reporters. The test’s new version will include new gender- based performance scoring tiers and the permanent implementa- tion of the plank as an option for the six-event test. The changes come as Army offi- cials work to alleviate concerns raised by lawmakers that past ver- sions of the ACFT were unfair to women, who posted a sub-50% pass rate of the Crossfit-style eval- uation.

  • Media Monitoring: West Michigan News
    Media Monitoring: West Michigan News Alexandra Simon Media Relations 22 January 2020 Media Monitoring: West Michigan News Media Outlets Observed The media for this media monitoring project that was observed for its content was on radio, television, and newspaper. Now, because newspapers are printed online, top headlines were taken from a website as it would be assumed to be seen in a printed newspaper, with the largest fonts and those with photos seen as more purposefully enticing. For radio, West Michigan Newsradio WOOD was used, which is on 106.9 FM, 1300 AM, and the iHeartRadio website. The show, Joe Pags, is based out of San Antonio, Texas. For television, Grand Rapids’ local news channel WZZM13 was used, an ABC Network-affiliated show online and on TV. This was incredibly difficult to watch as I had to find the live show’s link on Google, on Safari, every time I wanted to watch it because it would not load from its own website on Google Chrome, even after the show started. For newspaper, Michigan-based news source MLive was used, its homepage is organized in a way that features some articles better than others and in my media log, I tried to keep all of these spaces on its website in the same column for each day, organizing it by visual importance rather than timing like in radio and television. Types of Stories Covered Between the television and newspaper news sources, WZZM13 and MLive, these two networks were very similar in what news they covered. Unlike these, the radio station WOOD was largely focused on politics and then talked on specific themes at lengths, whereas the TV and newspaper had a larger variety of content.

(“SBS”) seek modification of the television market of WSBS-TV, Key West, Florida (the “Station”), to reinstate 41 communities (the “Communities”) located in the Miami- Ft. Lauderdale Designated Market Area (the “Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA” or the “DMA”) that were previously deleted from the Station’s television market by virtue of a series of market modification decisions released in 1996 and 1997. SBS seeks recognition that the Communities located in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties form an integral part of WSBS-TV’s natural market. The elimination of the Communities prior to SBS’s ownership of the Station cannot diminish WSBS-TV’s longstanding service to the Communities, to which WSBS-TV provides significant locally-produced news and public affairs programming targeted to residents of the Communities, and where the Station has developed many substantial advertising relationships with local businesses throughout the Communities within the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA. Cable operators have obviously long recognized that a clear nexus exists between the Communities and WSBS-TV’s programming because they have been voluntarily carrying WSBS-TV continuously for at least a decade and continue to carry the Station today.
