JUNE 2014 Funded through Counties by the voter approved Mental Health Services Act (Prop. 63) and overseen by the California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA). suicide is preventable.org MEDIA ANALYSIS - FINAL REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Know the Signs implemented a three-pronged approach to increase California’s news media adherence to the Recommendations: • direct outreach to media with the Recommendations; • education for messengers with “Making Headlines: A Guide to Engaging the Media in Suicide Prevention in California” and two webinars to introduce it; • a series of eight forums to reach messengers and media representatives. We then sought to measure how well California-based newspaper reporting adhered to the Recommendations and whether there were changes after the period of most intensive intervention. Eight of our 11 hypotheses were supported by the findings which show the potential of educating both the media and suicide prevention spokespeople. • There was an increase in the percentage and total number of articles covering the topic of suicide prevention, and a decrease in the percentage of articles that addressed only addressed a suicide death or attempt. • The percentage of articles that provided a suicide prevention resource increased by almost threefold. • The percentage of articles that discussed the method of a specific suicide death/attempt, including the weapon used and graphic details, decreased by more than 50%. • The percentage of articles that used more appropriate language (“killed himself,” “died by suicide”) to describe suicide doubled.

    December 4, 2017 The Hon. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr., Secretary United States Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20230 Re: Uncoated Groundwood Paper from Canada, Inv. Nos. C–122–862 and A-122-861 Dear Secretary Ross: On behalf of the thousands of employees working at the more than 1,100 newspapers that we publish in cities and towns across the United States, we urge you to heavily scrutinize the antidumping and countervailing duty petitions filed by North Pacific Paper Company (NORPAC) regarding uncoated groundwood paper from Canada, the paper used in newspaper production. We believe that these cases do not warrant the imposition of duties, which would have a very severe impact on our industry and many communities across the United States. NORPAC’s petitions are based on incorrect assessments of a changing market, and appear to be driven by the short-term investment strategies of the company’s hedge fund owners. The stated objectives of the petitions are flatly inconsistent with the views of the broader paper industry in the United States. The print newspaper industry has experienced an unprecedented decline for more than a decade as readers switch to digital media. Print subscriptions have declined more than 30 percent in the last ten years. Although newspapers have successfully increased digital readership, online advertising has proven to be much less lucrative than print advertising. As a result, newspapers have struggled to replace print revenue with online revenue, and print advertising continues to be the primary revenue source for local journalism. If Canadian imports of uncoated groundwood paper are subject to duties, prices in the whole newsprint market will be shocked and our supply chains will suffer.
