Mayor Indya Kincannon said Tuesday she is com- mitted to the project and will seek $1.7 mil- lion in the new budget for the first year and about $600,000 for each year afterwards. Kincannon told the city council meeting that the funds will go for equipment and management of the system and that bids are now being accepted for the cameras. She said the body cameras will add accountability for both officers and the public.

  • About a Quarter of Large U.S. Newspapers Laid Off Staff in 2018
    EMBARGOED COPY – NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION UNTIL 9:30 A.M. EDT, AUG. 1, 2019 About a quarter of large U.S. newspapers laid off staff in 2018 BY ELIZABETH GRIECO Layoffs continue to pummel staff at U.S. newspapers. Roughly a quarter of papers with an average Sunday circulation of 50,000 or more experienced layoffs in 2018, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis. The layoffs come on top of the roughly one-third of papers in the same circulation range that experienced layoffs in 2017. What’s more, the number of jobs typically cut by newspapers in 2018 tended to be higher than in the year before. Mid-market newspapers were the most likely to suffer layoffs in 2018 – unlike in 2017, when the largest papers most frequently saw cutbacks. Meanwhile, digital-native news outlets also faced continued layoffs: In 2018, 14% of the highest- traffic digital-native news outlets went through layoffs, down slightly from one-in-five in 2017. The following analysis examines layoffs at large newspapers and digital-native news outlets during the full 2017 and 2018 calendar years. An earlier analysis by the Center looked at layoffs at news organizations covering the period from January 2017 to April 2018. Roughly a third of newspapers that had layoffs in 2018 saw multiple rounds About one-in-four U.S. newspapers with an average Sunday circulation of 50,000 or higher (27%) experienced one or more publicly reported layoffs in 2018, according to the study, which examined EMBARGOED COPY – NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION UNTIL 9:30 A.M.

  • Friends and Co-Workers Remember Thom Gregory, a Longtime Gannett Employee
    Friends and co-workers remember Thom Gregory, a longtime Gannett employee Allie Clouse, Knoxville News Sentinel Published 3:55 p.m. ET March 11, 2020 Thomas "Thom" Gregory, 56, unexpectedly died of a heart attack early Sunday morning in Knoxville, where he lived with his wife, Lisa. Gregory was a USA TODAY Network regional director and general manager of the Knoxville News Sentinel's printing operation. He worked for Gannett at various Tennessee news operations for nearly 30 years. Just a couple of days earlier, Gregory was hard at work as always, ensuring that whatever was printed was of the highest quality. "It's hard to put Thom into words," Tony Clifton, his longtime friend, told Knox News. "He was a good, hardworking country boy." Gregory and Clifton went to school together in Franklin, Kentucky, where most of Gregory's family lives. In high school, Gregory met Clifton and his future wife. Gregory's family owned a farm in the small community, but instead of taking over the family business, Gregory started working at a local print shop. That's where his love for newspaper printing started. He went to college at Western Kentucky University and earned a degree in mathematics with a minor in physics. He started working for Gannett in 1990. "To him, it was all math," his wife, Lisa Gregory, said. "Laying out the paper was about numbers, so it came easy." Gregory spent about 25 years of his career at The Tennessean in Nashville. In 2017, he moved with his wife to work in Jackson, Tennessee, at The Jackson Sun.

  • TENNESSEE Tennessee Received $4,217,759 in Federal Funding for Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage Programs in Fiscal Year 2005.1
    TENNESSEE Tennessee received $4,217,759 in federal funding for abstinence-only-until-marriage programs in Fiscal Year 2005.1 Tennessee Sexuality Education Law and Policy Tennessee Code forbids the teaching of any sexuality education class unless it has been approved by the state board of education and the local school board, and is taught by instructors deemed to be qualified by the local school board. Any course in sexuality education must “include presentations encouraging abstinence from sexual intercourse during the teen and pre-teen years.” Violation of this rule is considered a Class C misdemeanor. The Code also protects sexuality education teachers: With respect to sex education courses otherwise offered in accordance with the requirements of this subsection, no instructor shall be construed to be in violation of this section for answering in good faith any question, or series of questions, germane and material to the course, asked of the instructor and initiated by a student or students enrolled in the course. Sexuality education is not required; however, the state code explains that if any county in Tennessee has pregnancy rates higher than 19.5 pregnancies per 1,000 females ages 15–17, then every school district in that county must implement family life education in accordance with curriculum guidelines provided by the state board of education. This education must emphasize abstinence-until-marriage and must include HIV/AIDS- and sexually transmitted disease (STD)- prevention. According to Tennessee Code, if a sexuality education program is developed in any school district, “in developing the plan, the state board shall consider such programs and materials as Sex Respect, Teen-Aid, and the 3-R Project of the South Carolina departments of education and health.” The state also recommends a plan for curriculum development, which includes building community and parental support for family life education.
