Otherwise, I didn’t have much to look forward to,” the Central High junior said. It was a Tuesday afternoon — three days after he became the only Rhode Islander to win an individual title at the 52nd annual New England Interscho- lastic Wrestling Championships when he captured the 220-pound title at the PCTA athletic facility. This was no ordinary win. It was a triumph of the human spirit by a young man who easily could have given up on himself long before he became a New England champion. Fenwick was 7 when a DCYF social worker came to his Woonsocket elemen- tary school and told him they were taking him because his mother and father had been declared unfi t parents. It wasn’t his fi rst encounter with DCYF. So began a journey that has taken him from group homes and foster homes in Woonsocket, Coventry and Warren to now being a teenager living by himself, Tylor Fenwick, left, poses with Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski at the Providence under state supervision, in Providence.

    October 1, 2020 Fifty years ago today, I earned my first paid byline. Made $10. But it might as well have been a million. I had been tapped—well, I was probably the only kid to ask—to cover the Avengers of East Greenwich High School for the too-grandly-named Rhode Island Pendulum (the paper actually only covered East Greenwich, a town of about 10,000 on the western shore of Narragansett Bay). I began my reporting career at that 4,000-subscriber weekly newspaper, and ended it at a 4 million-subscriber weekly newsmagazine. In between were more than 40 years of great stories, great people (some morons, too) and great memories. This stream-of-consciousness is simply one reporter’s take on the fate of his crumbling business as seen atop a half-century’s worth of notebooks. I started out by sitting in front of a convoy of clackety- clack manual typewriters. A much quieter ECRM CRT word processor. Followed by a primitive TI 700 computer, complete with that unspooling roll of thermal paper. Then a TeleRam Portabubble, followed by a Radio Shack TRS (“Trash,” to its fans) 80, to some Toshiba and other Stone Age machines, before landing behind a Mac 25 years ago, upon which, several Apple generations later, this is being typed (I’m sure there’s a couple of technological flashes-in- the-platen I’ve missed, and thankfully forgotten).

  • 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.

  • June 23, 2018 for Immediate Release Contact
    June 23, 2018 For Immediate Release Contact: C. James Dowden, Alliance Executive Director 310/379-8261 THE ALLIANCE ANNOUNCES 2018 EDITORIAL EXCELLENCE AWARD WINNERS FOR LEADING BUSINESS PUBLICATIONS LOS ANGELES—The Alliance of Area Business Publishers (AABP) presented 115 Editorial Excellence awards to newspaper and magazine business periodicals on June 23, 2018, at the closing celebration of its three-day annual Summer Conference in Washington, DC. With 484 entries from 37 publications in the U.S., Canada and Australia, the competitive field was both impressive and diverse. As in past years, the most popular categories were Best Feature and Best Explanatory Journalism. This year, submissions for Best Body of Work from a Single Writer and Best Personality Profile also topped the list, with superb pieces from writers in all circulation categories. “The high-quality journalism being done by these publications keeps readers thoroughly up-to-date and, importantly, includes a lot of data, context and historical perspective that are especially important as truth increasingly gets drowned in a flood of social media snippets,” said Reuben Stern, who coordinated the judging by faculty members at the University of Missouri School of Journalism. “The winning entries once again combine solid research, great sourcing, excellent on-the-ground reporting, deep community knowledge, and creative thinking.” By uncovering news of business expansion and related economic impacts, keeping an eye on how public dollars and tax incentives are allocated, and providing guidance for business people trying to navigate a host of modern complexities, regional business publications continue to offer a vital information resource in print and online.
