Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... Note IN stories of newspaper life, "local color" calls for the colloquially technical expressions employed in a newspaper office. Since they are not many, but are constantly used, it may be well to state in a prefatory note their meanings, in order to avoid putting them between quotation marks whenever they occur. In newspaper parlance, a reporter takes his "assignment" from the "city editor" and goes out to work up his "story." The "city editor" is the editor in charge of city news. An "assignment" is the subject a reporter is detailed to report upon. A "story" is almost any article in a newspaper except an editorial one. If the other papers fail to get a "story" which one has secured, it is called a "beat" or "exclusive." If the facts a story presents exist nowhere else, it is called a "fake." The manuscript of the story is called "copy," and is submitted to "copy-readers," whose function is to cut, correct, or sometimes re-write it. The place where the city editor and the reporters have their desks is called the "city room." The editor-in-chief holds sway over the entire staff. He represents the owner of the newspaper, and directs its editorial policy. Next to him in importance is the managing editor, whose chief executive officers are the city editor, the night editor, and the night city editor. The Sunday editor is responsible for the special features of the Sunday edition, and under him are numerous sub-editors in charge of various departments. Tales of the City Room RUTH HERRICK'S ASSIGNMENT MISS RUTH HERRICK, of the "New York Searchlight," had been summoned into the presence of the managing editor. It was without special alacrity that she obeyed the call. Even as she dropped her pen and rose from her desk in the City Roo

Download or read book City Room written by Arthur Gelb and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-11-02 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book Arthur Gelb was hired by The New York Times in 1944 as a night copyboy—the paper’s lowliest position. Forty-five years later, he retired as its managing editor. Along the way, he exposed crooked cops and politicians, mentored a generation of our most-talented journalists, was the first to praise the as-yet-undiscovered Woody Allen and Barbra Streisand, and brought Joe Papp instant recognition. From D-Day to the liberation of the concentration camps, from the agony of Vietnam to the resignation of a President, from the fall of Joe McCarthy to the rise of the “Woodstock Nation,” Gelb gives an insider’s take on the great events of this nation's history—what he calls “the happiest days of my life.”

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the School-Room That such accounts were acceptable to the younger class of readers, has been proved, by the pleasure with which the volume was received. But other schools have risen up, since the far-famed Amwell; and we may imagine, that many of the youthful inmates might have interesting facts to communicate, if they could be in duced to relate them. Not that at so early an age they are likely to have wit messed any events beyond those usually oc curring in a family circle; but, a young person of mind and observation, may often remember circumstances on which she might converse with improvement to her young.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lady Merton, Vol. 2: A Tale of the Eternal City Uring these Christmas holidays, in considera tion of his passionate love of music, Mary, after obtaining Sir Henry's approval, took Freddy with them to the opera, and she was more interested in watching the child than in observing what was going forward on the stage. He sat enraptured, his eyes fixed on the scene, absorbed, intense, motionless. It seemed almost as if his soul were ravished from his body, so still was this. Only the eyes told that his spirit was yet inside its habitation, pressing close behind them, and looking out with such craving, consuming, insatiable desire. For him what 'he saw on the stage was to all intents and purposes real a new, wonderfully beautiful world, into which he had just been born, whose heavenly sounds and colours and forms and rhythm, all worked together harmoniously to intensify the supernatural life - life? Oh, yes, that was the actual life. But the next morning, when she went to Freddy's room to see how he was, Lady Merton bitterly regretted having given the child so much pleasure.
