  • Concern Letter To
    Paula Kerger, PBS, President and CEO [email protected] Sara Just, Executive Producer, PBS NewsHour [email protected] Dear Ms. Kerger and Ms. Just, We, the undersigned, write to express concern about the PBS NewsHour segment on dyslexia, broadcast on April 30. As experienced senior scholars in the field of reading and literacy education, we found this segment to be inconsistent with the NewsHour’s stated aim of balanced and trusted reporting. Our professional work is devoted to studying literacy and how it can be developed in schools to enrich the lives of all students. So, we well understand and share parents’ and others’ anguish and frustration when children are identified as experiencing reading difficulties. Competent reading and writing are fundamentally important in and out of school, and difficulties can shape children’s concepts of themselves as learners, while affecting virtually every aspect of their everyday experience. Our concern is that the NewsHour received inadequate and incomplete scientific advice when producing the segment on dyslexia. The result perpetuates inaccuracies, misconceptions, and distortions related to reading, how it is taught, and the complexity of reading difficulties. It suggests erroneously that there is scientific certainty about dyslexia and how it should be addressed instructionally. In fact, the research evidence is equivocal and there is much room for debate about whether dyslexia is an identifiable condition, whether it can be reliably diagnosed, and whether there are instructional approaches that are uniquely effective in ameliorating it. That ambivalence is reflected in the American Psychiatric Association's decision to drop dyslexia as a diagnostic category in the current edition of its Diagnostic Statistical Manual, that field's most respected and widely used reference source.

    NOVITA PR NEOCON 2021 BROADER DESIGN PITCH Update May 12: We wanted to send along an update on our NeoCon pitch plan. We’ve had great calls with several NeoCon manufacturers to get their take and are also using them as a resource for supporting collateral. Overall, we’ve received a lot of great positive feedback and have developed relevant, timely angles. The manufacturers we’ve been speaking to have given us the most feedback and strongest insight into the workplace category. Because of this and given that “return to workplace” stories are getting a lot of traction right now, we’ve been focusing on our long-lead, broadcast pitches around that vertical and around the first pitch listed farther down below (“Employee Expectations Have Changed: How the $12.83 Billion Commercial Interiors Industry is Designing for Mental Health, Inclusivity and More). In addition, we’ve been monitoring recent stories around the subject and we’re directly responding to these. Below are the recent pitches. We will be pitching the other angles in the upcoming weeks, as well as print + digital, and are reaching out to gather more intel on the other verticals so we can properly target those. We can provide more updates as we go.

  • W&M in Washington Spring 2011 Media As the Fourth Branch Of
    W&M in Washington Spring 2011 Media as the Fourth Branch of Government Taught by Professor Dan Doherty Often referred to as the “fourth branch” of government, the media serve an essential role in the functioning of a representative democracy. If a government is to be responsive to its citizens, those citizens must first gather the information necessary to develop informed preferences: information about the world around them – the economy, the environment, national security threats, etc. – and information about the beliefs, proposals, and actions of their elected leaders, and of those who seek such positions. Citizens must also engage in some form of individual and collective analysis and deliberation. The media, particularly in the Nation’s Capital, play a critical role in each of these steps. Our goal will be to understand and evaluate the media’s performance of these vital roles. Washington Program Internship . 6 credit hours: INTR 499 This course provides students the opportunity to observe the media from a number of angles. Some will intern with a media outlet that reports on the actions of politicians and the government, on the economy, the environment, national security threats, etc., such as the Washington Post organizations, Politico, the American Prospect, CBS, NBC, ABC, NPR, PBS NewsHour, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and others. Students may choose the other side of that equation and intern with, for example, the communications office of a Member of Congress, the Department of State or Homeland Security – i.e., an organization whose goal is to control and shape the information that the media report. Still others may intern with a think tank or an advocacy group, such as the American Enterprise Institute or the Heritage Foundation, or a public relations firm like Fleishman Hillard or APCO; these critical actors in our political system seek to shape how their issues of interest are portrayed and interpreted by the media, and thus ultimately shape public preferences.
