Roberts at <[email protected]> 5 Note from the Editor . he last time I taught Ted Conover’s magazine cover Tstory, “e Way of All Flesh,” which was about the author’s time spent working at a massive Nebraska slaugh- terhouse called Cargill Meat Solutions—don’t you adore that name?—two anxious fourth-year undergraduate students intercepted me in the corridor as class was about to begin. Were they ill? No. Were they being called away? No. Did they have some urgent reporting or interviewing to do for another class? No. ey had a confession to make. ey had not com- pleted the week’s reading. In fact, they had hardly started the week’s reading. Why? Because it was about cows being put to death in the service of human appetite and, being vegetarians, they were repulsed by the idea of reading the story. e show went on without them, and the two students meekly sat through the discussion. I do not know exactly how much conscience should play a role in this circumstance, but they did miss a ne story. ey could have compared and contrasted Conover’s tale with Upton Sinclair’s book e Jungle to gauge how much more (or less) humane we have become in our treatment of cows over the past century plus. ey may have come to the same conclusion as the writer, namely, that we are “a group of predators (a pack, you might say) presiding over the slaughter of vast herds far too numer- ous for us to eat ourselves. e genius and horror of humanity was our ability to send the spoils to anonymous others of our kind located states and conti- nents away. [Y]ou could see us as naked apes, as hominids killing cows; industrial slaughter is predation writ large.” Conover, as is well known, over many years has nely honed his ability to act as his reader’s eyes. What struck me as di erent with “e Way of All Flesh,” if compared to, say, the author’s book, Newjack, about his time spent working as a jail guard at the Sing Sing correctional facility in Westchester County, New York, is the warmth and intimacy he is able to convey to the reader—even as the reader is quite aware, and made quite aware, that Conover is self-consciously aware that he is a character in the drama and is careful not to fall into the trap of making the story more about him than about how we treat the animals we eat and therefore about human nature in general. Patrick Walters’s lead article on Conover’s immersion, “Ted Conover and the Origins of Immersion in Literary Journalism,” explores this evolv- ing methodology by focusing on three recent works in particular: the book, 6 Literary Journalism Studies, Vol. 9, No. 1, Spring 2017 Routes of Man (2010), plus “e Way of All Flesh” (Harper’s, May 2013) and “Rolling Nowhere, Part 2” (Outside, July 2014). Walters contends that Conover’s “‘I’ camera” has become more versatile in switching angles from the ethnographic to the journalistic to the intensely personal. omas Schmidt’s essay, “Pioneer of Style: How the Washington Post Ad- opted Literary Journalism,” zeroes in on the radical transformation of the Post’s Style section, from a conservative container of innocuous gossip about powerful people in the capital to a hotbed of New Journalism experimenta- tion. Editor Ben Bradlee and his handpicked senior sta both plucked and attracted talented writers teeming with voice and an understanding of the counterculture, and Schmidt captures the historical framework that allowed a “narrative news logic” to take hold of American newsrooms. ndrew Gri ths brings us the story of British journalist George War- Arington Steevens, who deftly and dutifully reported on the deeds of em- pire during the late nineteenth century using a kind of proto–new journalistic style.

  • THE ALL-IN-ONE AUDIOBOOK — Bob Costas, HBO and NBC Sports Commentator “A Classic Baseball Rivalry Through the Eyes of a Smart, Funny, Intense Manager
    “La Russa is one of baseball’s most intriguing figures. Bissinger is one of our most respected writers. Together, they provide a unique and compelling view inside the game that for so long has fascinated, rewarded, and tortured the Cardinals manager.” THE ALL-IN-ONE AUDIOBOOK — Bob Costas, HBO and NBC sports commentator “A classic baseball rivalry through the eyes of a smart, funny, intense manager. What a combination, what a read!” — Tim Russert, NBC’s Meet the Press A Pulitzer Prize–winning author captures baseball’s strategic and emotional essences through a point-blank account of one three-game series viewed through the keen eyes of legendary manager Tony La Russa. Drawing on unmatched access to a manager and his team, Bissinger brings the same revelatory intimacy to major league baseball that he did to high school football in his classic bestseller, Friday Night Lights. Three Nights in August shows thrillingly that human nature — not statistics — can often dictate the outcome of a ball game. We watch from the dugout as the St. Louis Cardinals battle their archrivals, the Chicago Cubs, for first place, and we uncover delicious surprises about the psychology of the clutch, the eccentricities of pitchers, the rise of video, and the complex art of retaliation when a batter is hit by a pitch. Through the lens of these games, Bissinger examines the dramatic changes that have overtaken baseball, as well as the constants of the sport. Buzz Bissinger is the author of Friday Night Lights and A Prayer for the City. He has won the Pulitzer Prize and the Livingston Award for his journalism and is a contributing editor at Vanity Fair.

  • Examining the Magazine Industry Standard
    POINT OF VIEW: EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by CRISTINA DAGLAS John Fennell, Thesis Supervisor MAY 2009 © Copyright by Cristina Daglas 2009 All Rights Reserved The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled POINT OF VIEW : EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD presented by Cristina Daglas, a candidate for the degree of master of arts, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor John Fennell Professor Jennifer Rowe Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Maureen Stanton ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am immensely grateful to my thesis chair, John Fennell, who believed in both the necessity for and the feasibility of this research. When many doubted the ability to interview prominent magazine professionals, John provided support and guidance while always keeping setbacks and successes in perspective. John has been a mentor from first semester of graduate school when I enrolled in his writing course, and I am so pleased that I could pursue a topic I am incredibly passionate about with his guidance. However, this research would naturally not be what it is without the rest of my fabulous committee. Jennifer Rowe, my other mentor, adviser and friend, was an invaluable resource, as she provided big-picture edits, line edits and, most importantly, support. Amanda Hinnant provided advice in the earliest days of thesis conception as well as the scholarly perspective necessary in any academic work. Maureen Stanton was also a wonderful resource, imparting an outside, nonfiction mindset that added another dimension to this journalistic thesis.
