Some are BOARD OF DIRECTORS taking greater advantage of the interactivity offered by the Web; others are finding new venues through which to get their work to the public. PRESIDE N T A healthy debate is ongoing in newsrooms (and on blogs) about the value of putting searchable James V.

Year: 2018 Title: A new platform for quality journalism? Name: Gunhild Ring Olsen Print: Skipnes Kommunikasjon / University of Bergen Acknowledgements I could not have written this dissertation without the help of the people I have studied. My first thanks therefore goes to the leaders, staff, and students at the Investigative Reporting Program at the University of California, Berkeley, the Stabile Center for Investigative Journalism at Columbia University, and the New England Center for Investigative Reporting at Boston University. Without them allowing me to disturb their busy work schedules with visits, observations, and questions, this dissertation would not exist. A special thank you goes to the Investigative Reporting Workshop and to the School of Communication at American University, where I was welcomed as a Fulbright visiting scholar for a whole year and permitted to use the Workshop offices as a base for my research. I wish to express my genuine gratitude in particular to Charles Lewis, Lynne Perri, Barbara Schecter, John Sullivan, Pietro Lombardi, Mariam Baksh, Ke (Amber) Liu, and Christina Animashaun for patiently enduring my regular interrogations about the nonprofit world and for graciously answering my numerous questions.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Doug Gavel • (617) 495-1115 • News Office February 1, 2008 Office of Communications and Public Affairs Shorenstein Center Announces Finalists for the 2008 Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting CAMBRIDGE, MA - Six entries have been chosen as finalists for the 2008 Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting awarded each year by the Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. The winner of the $25,000 prize will be named at an awards ceremony on March 18 at the Kennedy School. The Prize honors journalism which promotes more effective and ethical conduct of government, the making of public policy, or the practice of politics by disclosing excessive secrecy, impropriety and mismanagement, or instances of particularly commendable government performance. "In a period when news organizations are cutting back on their budgets, the finalists for this year’s Goldsmith Prize are proof that investigative journalism of the highest quality is still a hallmark of the American press," said Thomas Patterson, acting director of the Shorenstein Center. "Each of these news stories exposed a troubling threat to our public life and, in doing so, brought about needed change." The finalists for 2008 are: Joshua Kors The Nation "Thanks for Nothing” Joshua Kors revealed how military doctors are purposely misdiagnosing soldiers wounded in Iraq as having been ill before joining the Army. His investigations resulted in a Congressional hearing, bills in the House and Senate and an added amendment to the Defense Authorization Act. Walt Bogdanich and Jake Hooker The New York Times "A Toxic Pipeline” Bogdanich and Hooker uncovered what would turn out to be China’s most lethal export: diethylene glycol, an ingredient in antifreeze that was used in medicine and is suspected of killing hundreds around the world.
