Southern California Journalism Awards Sixtieth LOS ANGELES PRESS CLUB SIXTIETH 6ANNUAL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA 0JOURNALISM AWARDS Warner Bros. Television Group proudly congratulates our dear friend and colleague Dolly Parton Honoree, The Bill Rosendahl Public Service Award for Contributions to Civic Life and salutes all of the nominees and honorees at the Los Angeles Press Club’s 60th Annual Journalism Awards Dinner th 60 ANNUAL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA JOURNALISM AWARDS A Letter From the President ood evening, and welcome to the 60th Annual Southern California Journalism Awards. G It’s hard to believe that when these awards were first started, Los Angeles was welcoming a new baseball team, the Dodgers, who had just moved from Brooklyn. The big celebrity crime was the stabbing death of Lana Turner’s mobster boyfriend, Johnny Stompanato, by her daughter Cheryl Crane. KTLA became the first TV station to use a news helicopter that year. And also in 1958, the University of Southern California established the first school for cinema and television studies. What a run they’ve had with gradu- ates such as George Lucas, Ron Howard and Shonda Rhimes. Through the years, reporters have been there to cover those and so many other stories. I often get asked: What’s it like being a journalist in an era when President Donald Trump and so many others are criticizing and even threat- ening the media for allegedly publishing fake news and for other perceived biases? I tell people it’s a little scary. But it’s also exhilarating. Because there are so many great stories out there to be told. Chris Palmeri The media business has changed a lot over the past 60 years. But I’m pleased to announce that the club this year saw a record number of submis- sions to its awards—more than 2,000 entries, in categories from humor writ- ing to health care reporting, from photo essays to college newspapers. And they came in for categories that couldn’t have even been dreamt about six decades ago, such as blogging, social media and podcasts. Our honorees this year represent the very best that the art of storytelling has to offer. Lester Holt, NBC’s evening anchorman, is the consummate news professional, keeping America informed every night with his shrewd judg- ment and gravitas. We couldn’t ask for a better public service award winner than Dolly Parton, whose work on behalf of children’s literacy has helped so many young people discover the printed word. (And don’t forget, she’s an amazing songwriter too!) Kimi Yoshino, the Los Angeles Times’ business edi- tor, has stood tall for all of us in the past year, shepherding difficult stories amid all of the turmoil that has hit the newspaper business. And finally, there’s Raif Badawi, our Daniel Pearl Award recipient, who couldn’t be here tonight because he’s in prison in Saudi Arabia, subjected to lashings, for writing about human rights in a regime where such freedoms are not allowed. On behalf of the board of directors and our club’s 500 members, thank you so much for your time, your sponsorship dollars and your support for a free press in Southern California.

Recently, this problem has ceased to be purely academic and has developed urgent, real-world consequences. Almost every state and the federal government has enacted anti-gang laws in the past several decades. These anti-gang statutes must define ‘gang’ in order to direct police suppression efforts and to criminally punish gang members or associates. These statutory gang definitions are all too often vague and overbroad, as the example of the Juggalos demonstrates.

  • Impending Developments and Transformations in International Law
    The Chinese Journal of Global Governance 3 (2017) 83–159 brill.com/cjgg The Clash of Architects: Impending Developments and Transformations in International Law Joel Slawotsky IDC Herzliya, Israel [email protected] Abstract The world stands at the precipice of a transitional moment in the international law writ caused by the reasonable likelihood that new architects will be joining (and eventually supplanting) the present-day architects. Transformative geo-political and economic developments such as OBOR, the AIIB, NDB and the increasing internationalization of the Yuan all herald potentially significant changes to the existing international gover- nance architecture. “Revisionist” states with strong motivations and global ambitions, may will become international law creators as these new architects influence the eco- nomic and legal orders. International law is not static and several of the new architects’ customs and norms inherently conflict with current Western ideals. Will international law norms converge? Will Western notions gravitate towards the other spectrum in enlightened self-interest? The impact on international law norms, enforcement, human rights, sustainability, trade and investment treaties and arbitration will be far-reaching. Understanding how this potential re-orientations in power will affect international law is of critical importance.

  • 1 Sex Differences in Preferences for Humor Produced by Men Or Women: Is Humor in the Sex of the Perceiver? [Word Count = <25
    1 Sex differences in preferences for humor produced by men or women: Is humor in the sex of the perceiver? [word count = <2500] Address correspondence to: 2 ABSTRACT It is a common argument that men are funnier than women. Recently, this belief has received modest empirical support among evolutionary psychologists who argue that humor results from sexual selection. Humor signals intelligence, and women thus use humor to discriminate between potential mates. From this, it follows that in addition to men being skilled producers of humor, women should be skilled perceivers of humor. Extant research has focused on humor production; here we focus on humor perception. In three studies, men and women identified the most humorous professional comedian (Studies 1 and 2) or individual they know personally (Study 3). We found large sex differences. In all three studies, men overwhelmingly preferred humor produced by other men, whereas women showed smaller (study 1) or no (studies 2 and 3) sex preference. We discuss biological and cultural roots of humor in light of these findings. 3 Sex differences in humor perception: Is humor in the sex of the perceiver? Although sex differences in the ability to produce humor have been debated at least since the 17th century (Congreve, 1695/1761; for more recent discussion, see the dialog between Hitchens and Stanley, Hitchens, 2007; Stanley, 2007), surprisingly few empirical studies exist on the topic. Yet understanding any sex difference in humor production or perception is important, since research suggests that humor mediates crucial social, psychological, and physiological processes. Socially, humor performs invaluable roles in persuasion (Mulkay, 1988) and managing personal relationships (Shiota, Campos, Keltner, & Hertenstein, 2004).

  • Getting and Nailing the Interview
    LESSON TRANSCRIPT MODULE 2 | LESSON 2 GETTING AND NAILING THE INTERVIEW INTRO I can tell you from being on both sides of the job-seeking fence that not all job seekers are doing things to really stand out nail their interview. It’s important to not assume that employers will just magically know you’re awesome — you have to show them. Clip And no, I’m not going to necessarily tell you to get a pink scented résumé like Elle Woods, but it’s actually an awesome example of the kind of X-factor that you have to think about so that you can get plucked out of all the résumés on a potential employer’s desk. When I was first applying for my first job, I sent out hundreds of tapes all across the country to different news markets. And in local news, you start with the smallest and try © COPYRIGHT 2019 NICOLE LAPIN LESSON TRANSCRIPT to work your way up. I even tried to apply to national stations, I mean, the worst thing they could say was “no” and I felt pretty good knowing that at least I gave it a go. Wayne Gretzky said you miss 100% of chances you don’t take, right? But it was really the little touches that got me to get noticed. Back in the days of VHS, I know, I’m super old, applicants would send their tapes out with generic black sleeves and the label was just a sticker that they hand wrote their name on. I did not do that.
