  • Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr
    Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr. Through the headlines of the Tulsa Tribune the Jones family has been a part of local and national history. Chapter 01 – 1:15 Introduction Announcer: The grandfather of Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr., Richard Lloyd Jones, bought the Tulsa Democrat from Sand Springs founder Charles Page, and turned it into the Tribune. The Tulsa Tribune was an afternoon newspaper and consistently republican; it never endorsed a democrat for U.S. president and did not endorse a democrat for governor until 1958. Jenkin Lloyd Jones Sr. was editor of the Tribune from 1941 to 1988, and publisher until 1991. Jenkin Jones brother Richard Lloyd Jones was the Tribune’s president. Jones Airport in Tulsa is named for Richard Lloyd Jones Jr. Other Jones family members served in various capacities on the paper, including Jenkin’s son, Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr., who was the last publisher and editor of the paper which closed September 30, 1992. Like other large city evening newspapers, its readership had declined, causing financial losses. Jenk Jones spent thirty-two years at the Tulsa Tribune in jobs ranging from reporter to editor and publisher. He is a member of the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame and the Universtiy of Tulsa Hall of Fame. And now Jenk Jones tells the story of his family and the Tulsa Tribune on Voices of Oklahoma, preserving our state’s history, one voice at a time. Chapter 02 – 12:05 Jones Family John Erling: My name is John Erling and today’s date is February 25, 2011. Jenk, state your full name, please, your date of birth, and your present age.

I have the utmost respect for what they do and how much they sacrifice for their students. I’d like to especially thank Professor Daryl Moen for working closely with me and pushing me to perform the best research possible. I definitely need to thank the former creative director at Gannett’s Des Moines Design Studio, Nathan Groepper, for giving me an opportunity to work there. My team leaders at the studio, Sean McKeown-Young and Jeremy Gustafson, were particularly awesome in pushing me to be a better and more thoughtful designer. Lastly, I’d like to thank my parents, Janet and Daniel Brisson for their love and support. I would not be here without them — not just in the literal sense, but also because their judgment and beliefs have driven me in probably everything I do. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS . ii LIST OF TABLES . iv ABSTRACT . v KEYWORDS . vi Chapter 1.

Some species produce potent toxins that can sicken or kill people, domestic animals, and wildlife. Dogs are particularly vulnerable to cyanotoxin poisoning because of their tendency to swim in and drink contaminated water during algal blooms or to ingestalgal mats.

  • 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.

  • Lee Enterprises Appoints Publisher of Wisconsin State Journal
    Lee Enterprises Appoints Publisher of Wisconsin State Journal April 18, 2006 MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 18, 2006--William K. Johnston, who began his newspaper career with Lee Enterprises, Incorporated (NYSE:LEE), 33 years ago in Madison, is returning as publisher of the Wisconsin State Journal. Johnston, currently publisher of the Lincoln Journal Star and regional executive for Lee publishing operations in Nebraska, will begin his new duties May 22. He will succeed James W. Hopson, who announced in March that he plans to retire at the end of the year. Until retirement, Hopson will continue to serve as a Lee vice president for publishing, overseeing other Lee newspapers in Wisconsin and Minnesota and handling special projects. Mary Junck, Lee chairman and chief executive officer, described Johnston as one of the company's most accomplished leaders. "Bill is a builder," she said. "On top of his own terrific track record as an advertising manager, general manager, publisher and regional executive throughout his long career in Lee, Bill has had an influential hand in the professional growth of eight of our current publishers, three of our top editors and many more key managers. He's continually improved our products and services, and he's also earned respect and admiration in the communities he's served." As publisher of the Wisconsin State Journal, Johnston also will become a principal officer of Capital Newspapers of Madison Newspapers, Inc., which is jointly owned by Lee and The Capital Times Co. "I'm extremely excited about this opportunity to return to my home state as publisher of a newspaper as terrific as the Wisconsin State Journal," he said.
