Entretanto, qualquer agradecimento feito aqui será ínfimo perto da sua importância na minha trajetória. Obrigada por em 2013, durante uma aula da especialização em Jornalismo Multiplataforma, ter me perguntado se eu gostaria de fazer mestrado e desde então ter estado ao meu lado. Obrigada pela confiança depositada em cada projeto, é sempre uma honra poder fazer parte das suas pesquisas e dos seus cronogramas que na hora parecem impossíveis de serem cumprimos, mas que no final sempre dão certo. Obrigada por toda generosidade com que conduziu não só essa dissertação, mas cada pesquisa que fizemos juntas (eu vou sentir saudades de falar no plural). Obrigada pelo incentivo e por acreditar que tudo isso seria possível desde o início. Obrigada por mostrar que o conhecimento é sempre construído com a ajuda do outro e que o aprendizado é constante. Serei sempre grata por tudo! À professora Soraya Ferreira por todo o aprendizado, carinho, abraços apertados e pelas digressões.

    Finding Aid for the Cleveland Press Photograph Collection

    Finding aid for the Cleveland Press Photograph Collection Repository: Cleveland State University Title: Cleveland Press Photograph Collection Inclusive Date(s): 1920-1982 Author: Finding aid prepared by Lynn Duchez Bycko Creation: Finding aid encoded by Kiffany Francis using the OhioLINK EAD Application in 2009 Descriptive Rules: Finding aid prepared using Finding aid prepared using Describing Archives: A Content Standard. Origination: Cole, Joseph E. Extent: 882 linear feet Physical Location: Abstract: After the Cleveland Press newspaper ceased publication on June 17, 1982. Joseph E. Cole, its publisher, donated the "morgue" to Cleveland State University. Representing the archived editorial library, sometimes referred to as a "newspaper morgue," topics focus on the news coverage of northeastern Ohio, with national and international news stories holding a secondary level of importance.The Cleveland Press photograph collection is composed of an archive of over one million photographs. Unit ID: PH2000.000PRE Language(s) of the Materials: English History of The Cleveland Press The Cleveland Press, founded by Edward W. Scripps, began as the Penny Press on 2 Nov. 1878. A small, 4-page afternoon daily, the paper continued to prosper. Shortened to the Press in 1884, and finally the Cleveland Press in 1889, by 1903 the Press was Cleveland's leading daily newspaper. As it entered the 1920s, the Press neared 200,000 in circulation. Louis B. Seltzer became the 12th editor of the Press in 1928, and under his 38-year stewardship the Press became one of the country's most influential newspapers. Seltzer readjusted its original working-class bias into a less controversial neighborhood orientation, stressing personal contacts and promoting the slogan "The Newspaper That Serves Its Readers." In the postwar period the Press continued its public service campaigns and remained an unrivaled force in Ohio politics.
