    1/22/2017 White House Press Secretary ­ Wikipedia White House Press Secretary From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The White House Press Secretary is a senior White House official whose primary responsibility is to act as spokesperson for the United White House Press Secretary States government administration, especially with regard to the President, senior executives, and policies. The press secretary is responsible for collecting information about actions and events within the president's administration and issues the administration's reactions to developments around the world. The press secretary interacts with the media, and deals with the White House press corps on a daily basis, generally in a daily press briefing. The press secretary serves by the appointment of and at the pleasure of the president; the office does not require the advice and consent of the U.S. Senate, though because of the frequent briefings given to the media, who in turn inform the public, the position is still a very prominent non­Cabinet post.

  • The Veterans of Foreign Wars and Veteran Political Activism from the Bonus March to the Gi Bill
    “SOLDIER-CITIZENS”: THE VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS AND VETERAN POLITICAL ACTIVISM FROM THE BONUS MARCH TO THE GI BILL By STEPHEN R. ORTIZ A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2004 Copyright 2004 by Stephen R. Ortiz This document is dedicated to my parents, who have waited a long time for its completion, and to Renée, who has made it possible with her unending love and support. Finally, this is dedicated in loving memory of Barley, the exuberant Briard whose immense joy in living was only surpassed by the size of his heart. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Sheryl Kroen and Dan Smith for their encouragement and thoughtful comments on my work. Jennifer Keene and Kurt Piehler offered to read earlier drafts and gave very valuable suggestions. Bob McMahon has been a source of constant support. The Diplomatic History Reading Group, consisting of Bob and his graduate students, welcomed a dilettante into their midst and forced me to think seriously about U.S. foreign policy. Bob Zieger, always a cheerful supporter, brought his encyclopedic knowledge of the 1930s to his reading of earlier drafts of this project and it is infinitely better for it. I am indebted to Louise Newman for helping me through some very difficult circumstances with unfailing optimism and confidence in my abilities, and for convincing me that gender was central to my study. And, I have a special note of gratitude for Jeff Adler, the advisor to this dissertation.

  • Catherine Cronenberg West Wing
    Seducing the Nation 1 Seducing the Nation: Claudia Jean C.J. Cregg as White House Press Secretary on The West Wing Catherine Cronenberg Master of Arts, Journalism Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism University of Southern California Los Angeles, CA [email protected] Seducing the Nation 2 ABSTRACT: Women have long faced professional discrimination in traditionally male fields, and the White House press secretary is no exception. As the role of women evolves in American society, it is important to examine the strides females are making in various areas. One crucial area of study is the image in popular culture of public relations practitioners, specifically the White House press secretary because of the enormous power and voice that accompanies the position. The portrayal of fictitious women in these roles has implications in shaping society’s views of those professional women in real life. Studying the causes and effects of discrimination may lead to potential solutions for greater societal problems. In researching for this paper, the original series DVDs were analyzed in order to develop and understand a qualitative analysis of Aaron Sorkin’s projected image of C.J. Cregg. Supplemental texts analyzing the series The West Wing were also consulted for further analysis. Other images of the press secretary or PR practitioner were gained through watching different series. Then the image was contrasted to personal and professional accounts of Dee Dee Myers and other former White House press secretaries. The implications of this research were expanded to broader social themes professional women face, such as family vs. careerism and deep-rooted sexism in society.

The choice of Delaware, and indeed the effects of the Great Depression on the state, as the subject of my dissertation may seem strange, particularly as I am a resident of the UK. My connection with Delaware is somewhat tenuous; my brother, an ex-Du Pont research scientist, has spent many of his working years in the state and it is through frequent visits to him that I have established my link to Delaware.

Peters The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2013 Under the Supervision of Professor Glen Jeansonne This study examines the major foreign policy events of Herbert Hoover’s presidency. The thesis uses newspapers, presidential memorandums as well as memoirs from key cabinet members in Hoover’s administration to bring into account Hoover’s background and upbringing as a motive for how he dealt with foreign policy issues throughout his four years in office and brings to light his efforts to create a better and more peaceful world. Beginning with his childhood, Hoover began to develop moral and character attributes that taught him the importance of helping neighbors and always acting humane when it came to issues of war, pain and suffering.
