ROADTRIP Jeffersonian Thanksgiving Festival SOURCE 11-21-04 DC EE M10 CMYK Sunday, November The Washington Post M10 21, 2004 x ROADTRIP Tipsheet WHAT’S ON SALE WHEN Jeffersonian Thanksgiving Festival Everyone knows that the day after Thanksgiving offers some of the biggest bargains of the year, as stores slash prices in an effort to draw early holiday shoppers. But the obnoxious crowds and never-ending lines can be daunting for even the most dedicated bargain-hunter. Want the savings without the stress? Hold out instead for seasonal sales, when items are marked down for a number of reasons: Bathing suits are moved out to make room for fall sweaters, air conditioners are discounted to lure customers in balmy springtime, or cell phones go for a song simply because salespeople are desperate to meet their quotas. It’ll take a little planning, but the money you save will make it well worth your while. Here’s a month-by- month guide to help you on your way. — Sara Cardace NOV DEC JAN Blankets and quilts; Cell phones (thanks Calendars for off-season real to holiday the new year, estate promos), end- holiday of-season decorations, women’s linens, shoes and televisions clothing, WHERE: Charlottesville, Va. baby furniture WHY: Quilts, aboriginal art and a jaunt back in time.

  • Periodicalspov.Pdf
    “Consider the Source” A Resource Guide to Liberal, Conservative and Nonpartisan Periodicals 30 East Lake Street ∙ Chicago, IL 60601 HWC Library – Room 501 312.553.5760 ver heard the saying “consider the source” in response to something that was questioned? Well, the same advice applies to what you read – consider the source. When conducting research, bear in mind that periodicals (journals, magazines, newspapers) may have varying points-of-view, biases, and/or E political leanings. Here are some questions to ask when considering using a periodical source: Is there a bias in the publication or is it non-partisan? Who is the sponsor (publisher or benefactor) of the publication? What is the agenda of the sponsor – to simply share information or to influence social or political change? Some publications have specific political perspectives and outright state what they are, as in Dissent Magazine (self-described as “a magazine of the left”) or National Review’s boost of, “we give you the right view and back it up.” Still, there are other publications that do not clearly state their political leanings; but over time have been deemed as left- or right-leaning based on such factors as the points- of-view of their opinion columnists, the make-up of their editorial staff, and/or their endorsements of politicians. Many newspapers fall into this rather opaque category. A good rule of thumb to use in determining whether a publication is liberal or conservative has been provided by Media Research Center’s L. Brent Bozell III: “if the paper never met a conservative cause it didn’t like, it’s conservative, and if it never met a liberal cause it didn’t like, it’s liberal.” Outlined in the following pages is an annotated listing of publications that have been categorized as conservative, liberal, non-partisan and religious.

  • Donald Trump Division and Union EPISODE TRANSCRIPT
    Donald Trump Division and union EPISODE TRANSCRIPT Listen to Presidential at http://wapo.st/presidential This transcript was run through an automated transcription service and then lightly edited for clarity. There may be typos or small discrepancies from the podcast audio. LILLIAN CUNNINGHAM: Nearly a year ago, I started a journey back in time through the American presidency. I left the newsroom and drove down along the dark Potomac River to Mount Vernon, George Washington's home, on a cold winter night. There were crackling fires and reanactors. What I didn't mention back in that very first episode, though, was that there was also pop music piped in over the stereo system, making it really hard to record those little fire sounds. This whole project has kind of been that way. Things haven't gone as planned -- tape recorders have broken, Lyndon Johnson experts have fallen sick with laryngitis right before interviews. But even more than those unexpected twists and turns, is that the present has shown up over and over and over in the past. Fast forward 44 weeks to last night -- election night. And suddenly, all I could see was the past poking its way into the present. I watched the results roll in on the newsroom screens until early into the morning. And I thought about all the elections that have come before. George H.W. Bush sitting alone in his hotel room, mourning his loss to Bill Clinton in 1992. The Chicago Tribune going to press with the wrong headline about Dewey defeating Truman in 1948.

  • THE EFFECTS of FACT-CHECKING THREAT Results from a Field Experiment in the States
    NEW AMERICA FOUNDATION Research Paper THE EFFECTS OF FACT-CHECKING THREAT Results from a field experiment in the states Brendan Nyhan and Jason Reifler* October 2013 Executive summary Politicians in the United States are coming under increasing scrutiny from fact-checkers like PolitiFact, Factcheck.org, and the Washington Post Fact Checker, who examine the accuracy of public statements that are often reported without challenge by traditional news organizations. However, we know little about the effects of this practice, especially on public officials. One possibility is that fact-checking might help to deter the dissemination of misinformation, especially for candidates and legislators at lower levels of government who receive relatively little scrutiny and are sensitive to potential threats to re-election. To test this hypothesis, we conducted a field experiment during the 2012 campaign evaluating the effects of reminding state legislators about the electoral and reputational threat posed by fact-checking. Our experimental sample consisted of nearly 1200 legislators in nine states with state PolitiFact affiliates. We found that legislators who were sent reminders that they are vulnerable to fact-checking were less likely to receive a negative PolitiFact rating or have the accuracy of their statements questioned publicly than legislators who were not sent reminders. These results suggest that the electoral and reputational threat posed by fact-checking can affect the behavior of elected officials. In this way, fact-checking could play an important role in improving political discourse and strengthening democratic accountability. * Brendan Nyhan ([email protected]) is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Government at Dartmouth College.

  • U.S. Media Reporting of Sea Level Rise & Climate Change
    U.S. media reporting of sea level rise & climate change Coverage in national and local newspapers, 2001-2015 Akerlof, K. (2016). U.S. media coverage of sea level rise and climate change: Coverage in national and local newspapers, 2001-2015. Fairfax, VA: Center for Climate Change Communication, George Mason University. The cover image of Miami is courtesy of NOAA National Ocean Service Image Gallery. Summary In recent years, public opinion surveys have demonstrated that people in some vulnerable U.S. coastal states are less certain that sea levels are rising than that climate change is occurring.1 This finding surprised us. People learn about risks in part through physical experience. As high tide levels shift ever upwards, they leave their mark upon shorelines, property, and infrastructure. Moreover, sea level rise has long been tied to climate change discourses.2 But awareness of threats can also be attenuated or amplified as issues are communicated across society. Thus, we turned our attention to the news media to see how much reporting on sea level rise has occurred in comparison to climate change from 2001-2015 in four of the largest and most prestigious U.S. newspapers—The Washington Post, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and The Wall Street Journal—and four local newspapers in areas of high sea level rise risk: The Miami Herald, Norfolk/Virginia Beach’s The Virginian-Pilot, Jacksonville’s The Florida Times-Union, and The Tampa Tribune.3,4 We find that media coverage of sea level rise compared to climate change is low, even in some of the most affected cities in the U.S., and co-occurs in the same discourses.

  • How Distorted Districts Lead to Distorted Laws by Liz Kennedy and Billy Corriher October 2, 2017
    RHODE ISLAND: How Distorted Districts Lead to Distorted Laws By Liz Kennedy and Billy Corriher October 2, 2017 The principle of “one person, one vote” requires states to redraw their election districts every 10 years in order to account for changes in population.1 In most states, legislators can manipulate district boundaries to benefit their own political party.2 This manipula- tion, called gerrymandering, weakens voters’ ability to affect election outcomes and exercise accountability over government. Distorted election districts lead to skewed representation and legislators who are less responsive to the will of the voters. In Rhode Island, the Legislature draws districts after receiving recommendations from an 18-member commission for which the vast majority of members are appointed by the majority leaders in both houses of the state’s Legislature.3 Though Gov. Lincoln Chafee was an independent, Democrats controlled both houses during the 2010 redistricting cycle.4 In the 2016 election, Republicans won 35 percent of the aggregate General Assembly vote but came away with only 13 percent of seats.5 Democratic legislators in the other states discussed in a recent Center for American Progress report6 supported increases in the minimum wage or opposed bans on local increases, however, the Democratic Legislature in Rhode Island pre-empted a Providence ordinance raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour for hotel workers.7 One Democratic legislator said, “It’s more important it be on the state and not every city and county having their own minimum

  • How Archives Make News James Boylan
    HOW ARCHIVES MAKE NEWS JAMES BOYLAN ABSTRACT The author analyzed the "image" of archives and archivists in 300 news clippings dated from 1981 to 1984. Three types of stories were found: (1) those in which archives and archivists played a secondary role, (2) those in which they appeared in an arranged "pseudo-event," and (3) those in which they were portrayed substantively. In the last group, few stories discussed seri- ous issues; instead, they employed metaphors of accumulation and rot. Such treatment may reflect the political weakness of archivists. The article concludes that archivists should try to provide full, honest information to journalists, to create pseudo-events of legitimate interest, and to encourage stories on archival policies and social roles. In 1983, the president of the Society of American Archivists, David B. Gracy II, declared that the focus - or the chief worry - of his time in office would be "the image and stereotype that non-archivists have of the archivist and archival." He painted a dismaying portrait of "the image of the archivist in the public mind": Some think it is an image of shabby grandeur. Others think it is an im- age of an unessential person. Still others think there is no image at all ....But no archivist with whom I have talked is satisfied, or even com- fortable, with the general image or stereotype carried by the public at large ....Indeed, our weak image is so pervasive that we can disregard it no longer. This issue is important, he suggested, not so much as a matter of self-esteem as of necessity, for the public and public officials will not indefinitely support an enterprise and a profession that they find dispensable.' The business of polishing one's image is far from simple, as Daniel J.
