USA TODAY NETWORK Celebrates Three Pulitzer Wins Published on Gannett Investor Relations (https://investors.gannett.com) on 4/16/18 6:22 pm EDT USA TODAY NETWORK Celebrates Three Pulitzer Wins Release Date: Monday, April 16, 2018 6:22 pm EDT Terms: Dateline City: MCLEAN, Va. The staffs of The Arizona Republic and USA TODAY NETWORK, staff of the Cincinnati Enquirer, and writer Andie Dominick of The Des Moines Register win Pulitzer Prizes MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE [1])--The USA TODAY NETWORK, part of Gannett Co., Inc. (NYSE: GCI), is celebrating three 2018 Pulitzer Prizes in the categories of explanatory journalism, local reporting and editorial writing. The Arizona Republic | USA TODAY NETWORK won for explanatory reporting for its project “The Wall: Unknown Stories, Unintended Consequences,” [2] The Cincinnati Enquirer staff won for local reporting with “Seven Days of Heroin,” [3] and The Des Moines Register’s Andie Dominick won for editorial writing. “The Wall” [4] was a landmark multi-platform project that examined President Donald Trump’s campaign promise to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. The explanatory report, led by then Arizona Republic’s vice president of news and editor Nicole Carroll, recently named editor in chief of USA TODAY, provides an in-depth look at the border through immersive technology, including aerial and 360-degree video, virtual reality, bots, drones, documentaries, photos, podcasts, and LiDAR data. The report was published at a crucial time when Congress was considering funding for a border wall and continues to inform policy discussions. The Pulitzer Prize board named “The Wall” a winner “for vivid and timely reporting that masterfully combined text, video, podcasts and virtual reality to examine, from multiple perspectives, the difficulties and unintended consequences of fulfilling President Trump's pledge to construct a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico.” “Seven Days of Heroin: This is What an Epidemic Looks Like,” [5] shines a spotlight on Cincinnati’s opioid and heroin crisis. Over the course of one week, 60 journalists investigated what has become the region’s greatest health crisis, during which they reported 180 overdoses and 18 deaths. The board awarded The Cincinnati Enquirer “for a riveting and insightful narrative and video documenting seven days of greater Cincinnati's heroin epidemic, revealing how the deadly addiction has ravaged families and communities.” The Des Moines Register’s Andie Dominick was named 2018 Pulitzer Prize winner for editorial writing about issues in Iowa related to health care, such as the governor’s privatization of Medicaid, state lawmakers’ efforts to impede fetal tissue research, and how the Trump administration’s handling of the Affordable Care Act jeopardizes access to coverage. The judges praised Andie Dominick “for examining in a clear, indignant voice, free of cliché or sentimentality, the damaging consequences for poor Iowa residents of privatizing the state’s administration of Medicaid.” In addition, two others earned honors as Pulitzer Prize finalists. They are: Brett Murphy of USA TODAY NETWORK, for “Rigged: Forced in Debt. Worked Past Exhaustion. Left with Nothing,” [6 ] in the National Reporting category. This yearlong investigation found that port trucking companies in southern California have spent the past decade forcing drivers to finance their own trucks by taking on debt they could not afford. Mike Thompson of the Detroit Free Press, for Editorial Cartooning [7]. Mike’s work offers commentary on politics, news, current events and pop culture. The Pulitzer judges said Mike created “a provocative, nuanced and impactful portfolio of editorial cartoons that took on a variety of social issues, including, health care, police brutality, sexual harassment and education, through traditional panels and digital animation.” “The USA TODAY NETWORK’s tremendous accomplishment of winning three Pulitzer Prizes and being recognized as finalists in two other categories underscores the value of the journalism put forth by our newsrooms across the country,” said Robert J. Dickey, president and CEO, Gannett. “Our journalists earned such prestigious honors because of the impact that their hard work had from the local to national level, and that result is the goal media organizations strive to achieve every day. Today is a cause for celebration.” “We are so proud of the work of the USA TODAY NETWORK’s journalists and honored by the Pulitzer Board’s recognition of their incredible feats of journalism in 2017,” said Maribel Perez Wadsworth, president, USA TODAY NETWORK and publisher, USA TODAY. “To have five Network teams be recognized by the Pulitzer Prize board is a reflection of the ambition, impact and excellence of our journalism. Most importantly, the work cited brought illumination to complex and troubling issues, helped to right wrongs, humanized some of the greatest challenges faced by our nation and served as a catalyst for vital dialogue.” About USA TODAY NETWORK USA TODAY NETWORK, part of Gannett Co, Inc.

    Application Part 2 Jim Battle 1 What makes you the best candidate for Greater Manchester? The Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner needs to lead, challenge, develop, coordinate, and monitor to a high standard. Throughout my career and most recently as Deputy Leader of Manchester City Council I gained significant, direct experience of leading, challenging, directing, coordinating and monitoring activities. This experience spans local government, working with the police, partner organisations; the business, voluntary, community, faith, trade union and independent sectors. I have responsibility for leading, challenging, innovating and directing change within organisations and communities, developing and initiating strategic ideas and policies, researching and analysing complex information, supporting and motivating teams. I developed effective monitoring and reporting systems to me from chief officers and established processes to challenge and scrutinise all aspects of policy and performance in local government. As the Deputy Leader of Manchester City Council I identified and developed crime and anti social behaviour reduction strategies through the Manchester Crime Reduction Partnership. By considering the changing, social and political context in which the police, council and community operate in Manchester I set the aims and objectives for the Crime Reduction Partnership and the focus upon key policy outcomes, crime reduction targets and community engagement. Examples of this approach are contained in the three Crime Reduction Strategies 2011 – 2014 ( background attachment A), 2008- 2011 ( background attachment B), and 2005 -2008 ( background attachment C part 1 and 2). The three Crime Reduction Strategy Statements and their implementation have been recognised by the Government and the City Council as milestones in the development of neighbourhood policing, improving public confidence and reducing crime and anti social behaviour in Manchester.

  • 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.
