  • With Increasing Economic Pressures and Public Health Concerns, and Fueled by the Crohurst Report, the Virginia Assembly Created the Hampton Roads Sewage Disposal Commission
    Visionary citizens of the region, on November 5, 1940, passed the referendum that established the Hampton Roads Sanitation District, a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia. As it prepares to commemorate the 75th anniversary of its creation, HRSD is paying tribute to those with the courage to vote to eliminate sewage pollution in the tidal waters of the Chesapeake Bay by publishing the story of their legacy. We hope that by understanding HRSD’s contributions to the health of area waterways and the economy of Coastal Virginia, those we serve will appreciate their role in “Living the Legacy.” F e b r u a r y 2 015 Contents: 3 Oysters Provide the Clue The First Referendum (Coming soon) The Second Referendum (Coming soon) The 1940s (To be posted the week of March 29) The 1950s (To be posted the week of May 24) The 1960s (To be posted the week of June 21) The 1970s (To be posted the week of July 19) The 1980s (To be posted the week of August 16) The 1990s (To be posted the week of September 13) The 2000s (To be posted the week of October 11) The 2010s (To be posted the week of November 5) G r a p h i c D e s i G n : b a r t M o r r i s OyProvidesters the Clue Water is a way of life in Hampton Roads; it is the one thing that both unifies and divides us as a region.

  • For Immediate Release: March 17, 2020 Contact: Henri Gendreau Cell: (206) 619-6704
    For Immediate Release: March 17, 2020 Contact: Henri Gendreau Cell: (206) 619-6704 Journalists of The Roanoke Times to form a union ROANOKE, Va. — Journalists and staff at The Roanoke Times on Tuesday announced plans to unionize as the Timesland News Guild. More than 75 percent of the newsroom — reporters, photographers, graphic artists, copy and online editors, designers and support staff — has signed cards authorizing union representation by The NewsGuild, a sector of the Communications Workers of America (CWA). Unionization among news media workers has surged in recent years. Yet the Timesland News Guild is the first to seek to form a union under Lee Enterprises since the company announced in January that it would take over 30 daily papers from Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Media Group. The deal closed Monday. Lee had been managing BH Media’s papers since July 2018. Reliable local news is more vital now than ever. As manager, Lee has already shrunk the size of The Roanoke Times print edition and converted full-time copy editing jobs to part-time, depriving employees of benefits and hurting the quality of our journalism. Prior to the sale this week, BH Media reduced sports and crime coverage, and eliminated or reduced beats dedicated to technology, arts and food. Overall, these far-off corporations have slashed our newsroom by about half over the past six years. Corporate decision-making has hamstrung our circulation colleagues, leading to issues with deliveries, canceled subscriptions and declining revenues. The Timesland News Guild is asking Lee to voluntarily recognize the guild and begin bargaining.

  • Newspapers in Hampton Roads: Competition, Coverage and Issues
    newspapersECONOMIC in PERFORMANCEhampton roads AND INCOME Newspapers In Hampton Roads: Competition, Coverage And Issues very morning, Monday through Saturday, more than 290,000 residents of Hampton Roads receive a daily newspaper printed Ein the region. Meanwhile, every Sunday of the year, more than 347,000 area residents are recipients of locally produced newspapers, according to Editor & Publisher Market Guide 2002. Chances are quite good that readers of either the Norfolk- based Virginian-Pilot or the Newport News-based Daily Press will be treated every day to solid journalism, compelling photog- raphy, visually pleasing page layouts, plus editorials and columns that bring local issues to life for both consideration and pleasure. Annual evidence shows that when the Virginia Press Association issues awards for daily newspapers throughout the Commonwealth, numerous staff members from both papers are recognized for their achievements in writing, design and photography. Chances are equally good that readers of either newspaper will be reasonably familiar with the same international, national and statewide issues. The Roman Catholic cardinals’ summit with Pope John Paul II, the latest turn of events from the West Bank, the gripping news of more terrorist activities planned by members of al-Qaida and the return of the USS Cole to Hampton Roads have been featured prominently in both newspapers. Readers of both papers also can count on news of how Old Dominion University’s women’s basketball team performed against the University of Connecticut, or how the Norfolk Tides fared against the Richmond Braves in a doubleheader, or how well the Tribe of William and Mary played football against New Hampshire.
