  • 2003 NJPA Better Newspaper Contest Results
    2003 Editorial Daily NJPA Better Newspaper Contest Results Overall Awards Journalist of the Year, Daily “Profiting From Public Service” Paul D'Ambrosio Asbury Park Press, Neptune Judges comments: A clear winner. A powerful expose. It is evident that a ton of tedious work went into this massive project. A provocative, infuriating look at greed and self-aggrandizement in NJ’s political underworld. Would have seen boxes splattered throughout the pages separately addressing how each different “sin” gave the politician and his family/business quality of life advantages the voter who put him in office doesn’t have, but is paying for, etc. i.e. several jobs adding up to bigger pensions and a cushy upcoming retirement. I’d title the boxes, “How does this make you feel?” Would like to have seen a chart of how all politicians cited in the series for their misdeeds made out in the election: did they win or lose? By how many votes? One was cited (Bennett’s race). Great job! Overall Awards General Excellence, Daily, under 60,000 Herald News, West Paterson Overall Awards General Excellence, Daily, over 60,000 The Record (Bergen County, N.J.)

This newspaper is comprehensive, enlightening and urgent in its coverage of two important issues that affect its community.

  • Scottsih Newspapers Have a Long Hisotry Fof Involvement With
    68th IFLA Council and General Conference August 18-24, 2002 Code Number: 051-127-E Division Number: V Professional Group: Newspapers RT Joint Meeting with: - Meeting Number: 127 Simultaneous Interpretation: - Scottish Newspapers and Scottish National Identity in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries I.G.C. Hutchison University of Stirling Stirling, UK Abstract: Scotland is distinctive within the United Kingdom newspaper industry both because more people read papers and also because Scots overwhelmingly prefer to read home-produced organs. The London ‘national’ press titles have never managed to penetrate and dominate in Scotland to the preponderant extent that they have achieved in provincial England and Wales. This is true both of the market for daily and for Sunday papers. There is also a flourishing Scottish local weekly sector, with proportionately more titles than in England and a very healthy circulation total. Some of the reasons for this difference may be ascribed to the higher levels of education obtaining in Scotland. But the more influential factor is that Scotland has retained distinctive institutions, despite being part of Great Britain for almost exactly three hundred years. The state church, the education system and the law have not been assimilated to any significant amount with their counterparts south of the border. In the nineteenth century in particular, religious disputes in Scotland generated a huge amount of interest. Sport in Scotlaand, too, is emphatically not the same as in England, whether in terms of organisation or in relative popularity. Additionally, the menu of major political issues in Scotland often has been and is quite divergent from England – for instance, the land question and self-government.

  • E.W. Scripps Company Expects Newspaper Spinoff to Retain Tax-Free Status in Journal Media Group Acquisition
    E.W. Scripps Company expects newspaper spinoff to retain tax-free status in Journal Media Group acquisition For immediate release Oct. 7, 2015 CINCINNATI – The E.W. Scripps Company (NYSE: SSP) expects the spinoff and merger of its newspaper operations with those of Journal Communications to remain tax free for Scripps and its shareholders if Journal Media Group (NYSE: JMG) is acquired by Gannett Company (NYSE: GCI). Gannett announced plans for the acquisition today. On April 1, Scripps and Journal Communications simultaneously spun off and merged their newspaper operations to form Journal Media Group in a transaction that was tax free for Scripps and its shareholders. At the time of this deal, Scripps and Journal Communications entered into a Tax Matters Agreement to address Scripps’ and Journal Media Group’s rights and obligations with respect to a number of matters, including any sale of Journal Media Group before the second anniversary of the closing of the deal. Under that agreement, Journal Media Group is required to provide Scripps with an unqualified opinion of tax counsel confirming that the tax-free status of the spin-off of Scripps newspapers will be preserved in the event of a sale of Journal Media Group. Scripps has received this tax opinion, which concludes that the sale of Journal Media Group will not result in the prior Scripps spinoff becoming taxable to Scripps or its shareholders. About Scripps The E.W. Scripps Company serves audiences and businesses through a growing portfolio of television, radio and digital media brands. Scripps is one of the nation’s largest independent TV station owners, with 33 television stations in 24 markets and a reach of nearly one in five U.S.
