  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • Date: Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 9:43 AM
    From: Jones, Allen To: Hall, Vince; Shepard, Tom; McCormack, Irene; DRBOB Subject: AJ"s edits to first draft of State of the City address Date: Saturday, January 05, 2013 4:29:20 PM Attachments: Attached are my revised additions to the SoC in response to our discussion today. Allen ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tom Shepard <[email protected]> Date: Sat, Dec 29, 2012 at 9:43 AM Subject: First draft of State of the City speech To: Vince Hall < > Attached is a first draft of the State of the City speech. As I mentioned when we first discussed this, the draft should be viewed as a framework, not a completed document. I’ve highlighted in yellow paragraphs that are still needed but that are outside my areas of expertise. Among these, I’ve already asked Chris Frahm to give us a paragraph on water policy, which she has promised by next week. Also, please note that it has been a custom in some previous SoCs to solicit suggestions from the council members about specific initiatives they would like the mayor to call out and for which they would like to be recognized. Not sure if you want to do this, but if so the appropriate place would be right after Bob’s recognition of them in the current draft. To expedite the process of completing this, I suggest we schedule a meeting with Bob sometime this next week to go over the draft, get his feedback, and make assignments for additional items that need to be added. I stand ready to revise, add, delete (or in any other way you direct) take responsibility for ensuring Bob ends up with a final product with which he is satisfied.

  • The Evolution of Darwinian Sexualities
    BJHS Themes (2021), 1–23 doi:10.1017/bjt.2021.7 RESEARCH ARTICLE The evolution of Darwinian sexualities Erika Lorraine Milam* History Department, Princeton University *Corresponding author: Erika Milam, Email: [email protected] Abstract Charles Darwin’s Descent of Man was suffused with questions of courtship, mating and sex. Following in his footsteps, biologists throughout the twentieth century interrogated the sexual behaviour of humans and animals. This paper charts the fate of evolutionary theories of sexuality to argue that – despite legal and social gains of the past century – when biologists used sexual selection as a tool for theorizing the evolution of homosexual behaviour (which happened only rarely), the effect of their theories was to continuously reinscribe normative heterosexuality. If, at the end of the nineteenth century, certain sex theorists viewed homosexuality as a marker of intermediate sex, by the late twentieth a new generation of evolutionary theorists idealized gay men as hyper- masculine biological males whose sexual behaviours were uncompromised by the necessity of accommodating women’s sexual preferences. In both cases, normative assumptions about gender were interwoven with those about sexuality. By the twenty-first century, animal exemplars were again mobilized alongside data gathered about human sexual practices in defence of gay rights, but this time by creating the opportunity for naturalization without recourse to biological determinism. Charles Darwin’s Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex was suffused with questions of courtship, mating and sex.1 Darwin’s reconstruction of animal history positioned ani- mals as vital sources of information on the development of the sexes and the mechanisms of courtship.

  • Report Is the Product of Our Inquiry and Evaluation of That Matter
    I. INTRODUCTION The Attorney General agreed to a request by Jerry Sanders, the Mayor of the City of San Diego, to inquire into allegations of corrupt conduct made against the mayor by Michael Aguirre, the City Attorney of San Diego. This report is the product of our inquiry and evaluation of that matter. The inquiry commenced shortly after June 15, 2007, when the San Diego Union-Tribune published City Attorney Aguirre’s letter to the editor concerning the mayor’s handling of the Sunroad Centrum 12 building project. In August 2006, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had determined that the Centrum 12 building constituted an air navigation hazard due to its height and proximity to Montgomery Field Airport, which is owned and operated by the City of San Diego. Sunroad’s principal and the owner of Centrum 12, Aaron Feldman, is a campaign contributor of the mayor’s. City Attorney Aguirre’s letter to the editor charged that Mayor Sanders “engaged in an embarrassing and corrupt course of action,” by allowing Centrum 12’s construction by Feldman “in defiance of FAA safety standards and California state law,” and by employing his staff and a San Diego Regional Airport Authority executive on loan to the city to “lobby the FAA for changes to the routing of airplanes at Montgomery Field so that the illegal building could remain, [thus], misusing thousands of dollars of public funds for the private benefit of a campaign contributor,” i.e., Feldman. City Attorney Aguirre additionally charged that the mayor had “engaged in a campaign of delay, deny and deceive.” This office inquired into City Attorney Aguirre’s allegations of a “corrupt course of action” by the mayor, as well as his related allegations made earlier in two television news programs, an airport authority meeting and a press conference.

  • Bridging the Centuries: the Jewel on the Bay Commemorating the History of the County Administration Center - 2Nd Edition JEWEL on the BAY 2
    Bridging the Centuries: The Jewel on the Bay Commemorating the History of the County Administration Center - 2nd Edition JEWEL ON THE BAY 2 Bridging the Centuries: The Jewel on the Bay is the second edition about the history of the San Diego County Administration Center. Beginning in 1902, San Diego’s civic leaders crossed many hurdles before construction could begin on this public building. Bridging the Centuries exam- ines its history and gives us a glimpse into the region at that time. It also commemorates the many San Diegans who held to their vision and overcame numerous obstacles in bringing this grand building to reality. This building’s legacy began in 1938 with its dedication by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The County Administration Center stands as a testa- ment to the strength, vitality, diversity, livability and beauty of this region. This book tells its story.
