  • About a Quarter of Large U.S. Newspapers Laid Off Staff in 2018
    EMBARGOED COPY – NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION UNTIL 9:30 A.M. EDT, AUG. 1, 2019 About a quarter of large U.S. newspapers laid off staff in 2018 BY ELIZABETH GRIECO Layoffs continue to pummel staff at U.S. newspapers. Roughly a quarter of papers with an average Sunday circulation of 50,000 or more experienced layoffs in 2018, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis. The layoffs come on top of the roughly one-third of papers in the same circulation range that experienced layoffs in 2017. What’s more, the number of jobs typically cut by newspapers in 2018 tended to be higher than in the year before. Mid-market newspapers were the most likely to suffer layoffs in 2018 – unlike in 2017, when the largest papers most frequently saw cutbacks. Meanwhile, digital-native news outlets also faced continued layoffs: In 2018, 14% of the highest- traffic digital-native news outlets went through layoffs, down slightly from one-in-five in 2017. The following analysis examines layoffs at large newspapers and digital-native news outlets during the full 2017 and 2018 calendar years. An earlier analysis by the Center looked at layoffs at news organizations covering the period from January 2017 to April 2018. Roughly a third of newspapers that had layoffs in 2018 saw multiple rounds About one-in-four U.S. newspapers with an average Sunday circulation of 50,000 or higher (27%) experienced one or more publicly reported layoffs in 2018, according to the study, which examined EMBARGOED COPY – NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION UNTIL 9:30 A.M.

  • The Orange County Right Wing and the Battle Over Progressive Education
    Politics, America, and Sex: What Could Go Wrong? The Orange County Right Wing and the Battle over Progressive Education Emma Bianco History 101 Thesis Professor M. Brilliant Fall 2018 I. Introduction On November 9th, 2016, while the national press focused on a quite tumultuous presidential election, a subtler revolution took place. For the first time in eighty years, my home county of Orange County, California voted for a democratic presidential candidate (by 39,000 votes).1 A similar process repeated itself in the 2018 midterms: the Democrats gained control all four House seats in Orange County and flipped all seven Republican held seats.2 This dent in the Right’s political monopoly over Orange County suggests a reversal of its staunch conservative nature. During such a tumultuous period in one of the most infamous political regions, I sought to fathom the development of my county’s Republican disposition. However, when conducting preliminary research, I became aware of a fascinating ideological battle within Orange County during the 1960s, centered around a contentious debate of “progressive education.” Amongst a population of 1.4 million in twenty-two cities, with 361,890 children enrolled in public K-12 districts by 1970, this curriculum battle revealed the depth of political influence upon educational policies.3 This all but forgotten incident in Orange County’s history presents an intriguing case study in the development of this 1 Seema Mehta, “Orange County Voted for a Democrat for President for the First Time since the Great Depression,” Los Angeles Times, November 9, 2016, http://www.latimes.com/nation/politics/trailguide/la-na-election-aftermath-updates-trail- orange-county-turns-1478716018-htmlstory.html.

  • DWB CV, Updated April 2020
    DAVID WATTS BARTON 1110 NW 10th Avenue Camas, WA 98607 USA +1 916.804.2854 [email protected] During nearly 40 years in multimedia journalism I have used my talents as an interviewer, writer and editor in newspapers, magazines, radio, websites and social media. Expanding my work on multiple platforms, I have spoken to groups, taught, written for many media and have continued to blog regularly. My work for the Kyoto-based website Japanology.org has been collected and will be published as Japan from Anime to Zen in January 2021. In recent years, I have expanded into working with luxury brands doing content marketing and narrative strategies, largely in Japan, where I have lived off and on since 2016. I have also published a blog at davidwattsbarton.com/blog and have created a music history website, music1967.com, where I continue my explorations of music. In addition to my 24 years at The Sacramento Bee, my work has appeared in dozens of newspapers, including The Miami Herald, The Orange County Register, The Portland Oregonian, The San Francisco Examiner and the International Herald Tribune. My work for the international wire service Bloomberg LLC has been published in newspapers around the world. I was Editor-in-Chief of the local news website SacramentoPress.com, helping to lead the nation in this hybrid form of professional and amateur online local journalism. My work there led to fellowships at the University of Southern California and the University of California, Berkeley. Having developed new skills with National Public Radio affiliate Capital Public Radio in Sacramento, I regularly hosted the daily hour-long live interview show, “Insight.” In October 2011, I won the inaugural Arts Journalist of the Year Award from the Arts and Business Council of Sacramento.
