Protecting Capturing how COVID-19 has changed our lives land for growing ‘table food’ Donnelle Eller Des Moines Register USA TODAY NETWORK Suzan Erem imagines an Iowa where people can walk or bike a few blocks to their local farm to buy the lo- cally raised fruits, vegetables and meat they need to feed their families. Erem's group, Sustainable Iowa Land Trust, is working to make that idea a reality. The eastern Iowa nonprofit, called SILT, has outlined an ambitious plan to raise $3 million over the next three years to protect farm acreage around nearly a dozen Iowa cities and towns. The group will provide beginning farmers with low-cost land reserved exclusively for sustainable agriculture, where they can raise healthy food that KELSEY KREMER/THE REGISTER supplies the kitchens of local families, schools and restaurants.

  • 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.

  • A Model of Excellence for Weekly Newspapers in Iowa
    A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE FOR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS IN IOWA A THESIS Presented to The School of Journalism and Mass Comunication DRAKE UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Mass Communication by AMY K. DUNCAN MAY 1994 A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE FOR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS IN IOWA By Amy Duncan Approved by Committee: . Professor Michael Perkins Dr. Louis Wolter Acting Dean of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE FOR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS IN IOWA An abstract of a thesis by Amy K. Duncan May 1994 Drake University Advisor: Professor Herbert Strentz Weekly newspapers are what people read to find out their local news. While The Des Moines Register and the like cover the "big" news of the day - Haiti, Somalia, health care -it is the weekly newspapers that bring people the most local news - city council reports, the features on local heroes and the information on how the "big" news affects their small communities. But there is little in existing research to tell us what exactly is the charge of weekly newspapers, and even less telling us how well they live up to this charge. This thesis starts by reporting the results of a survey of 100 editors of Iowa weekly newspapers to determine which weekly newspapers in Iowa are considered the best, what the best weekly newspapers in Iowa do well, and what all weekly newspapers in Iowa do well. From the responses to this survey, it is easy to determine that Iowa weekly &tors believe that weekly newspapers should present mostly local news, they should do it honestly and accurately, and they should package it attractively.
