    Wisconsin Public Radio For Immediate Release Contacts: Jeffrey Potter, Marketing Director Ph: 608-890-3908 or [email protected] Sheryl Gasser, Program Director of The Ideas Network Ph: 608-263-4117 or [email protected] The Ideas Network Of Wisconsin Public Radio Announces New Weekday And Weeknight Schedule Madison, Wis. – As veteran host Kathleen Dunn retires, Wisconsin Public Radio (WPR) announces the addition of 1A to The Ideas Network schedule beginning August 14. 1A will air from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Thursday, replacing The Kathleen Dunn Show. Science Friday will continue to be heard each Friday at 1 p.m. "Listeners who enjoyed The Kathleen Dunn Show will find 1A covers similar topics with a familiar in- depth approach,” said Sheryl Gasser, Program Director of The Ideas Network. “Joshua leans into topics like health care, immigration, science and pop culture in a way that is compelling and informative. We're excited to have his voice in Wisconsin." With a name inspired by the First Amendment, 1A explores the politics, technology and pop culture that connect and divide America today. Listeners can expect a mix of several segments in each hour while staying close to the news of the day. 1A is produced by WAMU in Washington, D.C. and distributed by NPR. “If it wasn't for Wisconsin, there might not be a ‘public radio’. We owe your state a lot!,” host Joshua Johnson said, referring to WPR’s centennial legacy as the oldest public radio station in the nation. “Hopefully 1A helps repay that debt with the kind of engaging, compelling and meaningful conversations you helped invent.” Johnson’s professional background has him well prepared to host 1A.

    NIEMAN REPORTS Storytelling and Social Media HANNA, one of the subjects in “Maidan: Portraits from the Black Square,” Kiev, February 2014 Nieman Online From the Archives For some photojournalists, it’s the shots they didn’t take they remember best. In the Summer 1998 issue of Nieman Reports, Nieman Fellows Stan Grossfeld, David Turnley, Steve Northup, Stanley Forman, and Frank Van Riper reflect on the shots they missed, whether by mistake or by choice, in “The Best Picture I Never Took” series. Digital Strategy at The New York Times In a lengthy memo, The New York Times revealed that it hopes to double its “Made in Boston: Stories of Invention and Innovation” brought together, from left, author digital revenue to $800 million by 2020.

Using portraits of Mrs. Nieman’s mother and father as references, he worked with cut pages from Nieman Reports and from the Foundation’s archival material to create this likeness. About the portrait on page 6: Alexandra Garcia (left), NF ’13, an Emmy Award-winning multimedia journalist with The Washington Post, based her acrylic portrait with collage on the photograph of Agnes Wahl Nieman standing with her husband, Lucius Nieman, in the pressroom of The Milwaukee Journal. The photograph was likely taken in the mid-1920s when Mrs. Nieman would have been in her late 50s or 60s. Garcia took inspiration from her Fellowship and from the Foundation’s archives to present a younger depiction of Mrs. Nieman. Video and images of the portraits’ creation can be seen at http://nieman.harvard.edu/agnes. A Nieman lasts a year ~ a Nieman lasts a lifetime SUMMER/FALL 2013 VOL.
