Why is the only real difference between Jerry Springer and Dan Rather that Dan's guests usually don't need medical attention? How did a load of baking powder spark two minutes of high-strung local news coverage?

Book excerpt: It is 1986 and sex is everywhere, even in the workplace. Cara Angeli has just landed her first full-time job working in a local newsroom. Although it is only an entry-level position, Cara is confident that hard work and diligence will help her achieve her dream of being a television reporter. Unfortunately, Cara does not realize the lengths she will have to go to in order to reach her goal. As she begins her job as a production assistant in a newsroom full of lecherous bosses and motley co-workers, Cara soon discovers the television news business is not as glamorous as she once envisioned. Amid the shortcomings of a womanizing news director, an insecure anchorman, and colleagues determined to stop at nothing to get the lead story, Cara doggedly climbs an unsteady career ladder. As she attempts to balance her quest for true love with her desire for professional success, only time will tell if she will be able to attain everything she has ever wanted despite a violent act and a heartbreaking loss. If It Bleeds, It Leads shares the compelling tale of a young womans journey through the cutthroat world of television news as she explores friendship, love, and the power of her own perseverance.

Book excerpt: The book is a daily devotion for those who wish to “change the relationship they have with their life.” It was originally designed for use within an addiction recovery facility. We found that many others were improving the quality of their life through these God inspired devotions. They are simply written and easy to understand, therefore easily applied to your life. If we allow God into our lives, He will help us with our Relationships. Living in God’s will for our lives gives us the Integrity to walk through life with our head held high. And last, but not least, we need to find the Truth. We must put in the work to find the Truth and stop accepting what the world tells us. We can use this G.R.I.T. FILTER to help us on the journey of changing the relationship we have with our lives. By asking four simple questions, we can avoid many of the “potholes” of life. Those four questions are: Have I invited God into my decision process? How will my decision affect my Relationships? What will my decision do to my Integrity? Have I done the research and found the Truth before I react? Living a life with G.R.I.T. will give you joy as you “Transform the relationship you have with your life.” If you believe you have a terrible life, it will be terrible. If you work to change your outlook and become grateful for what you have, every day becomes a blessing. It is my sincere hope that these devotional messages will be a blessing to you as you start to live with G.R.I.T.. GETCHASOME! David Douglas

Download or read book The Next Agenda written by Robert L. Borosage and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Next Agenda, editors Robert Borosage and Roger Hickey of the Campaign for America's Future have gathered essays written by some of America's most progressive thinkers and activists that lay out ideas and reforms to address the serious issues facing us today. They argue that the economic prosperity of the last decade can only be sustained if it is more widely shared. And they call for a new progressive movement to forge new rules for the global economy just as the Progressives of the last century tamed the excesses of America's national economy.Each of the fourteen essays in The Next Agenda detail the context that makes fundamental reform both necessary and possible and outlines the policy proposals that are vital to begin meeting the challenge. David Moberg, reporter for In These Times, writes about reforming labor law to empower workers whose voices have been drowned out by globalization. Richard Rothstein, education columnist for the New York Times, writes of the growing shortage of classrooms and teachers and suggests reform initiatives for public education. Ted Marmor of the Yale School of Management, and Jon Oberlander, of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, provide a plan to make affordable, comprehensive health care available to everyone. Carl Pope of The Sierra Club and a leader of the environmental movement joins with labor leader Robert Wages, of PACE International, to lay out elements of a Green Growth agenda, detailing how labor and environmentalists can combine in promoting sensible investments for sustainable growth. These forward-thinking essays serve as a springboard for national debate and provide an ambitious agenda for the next administration.

Book excerpt: The AIDS epidemic has affected every country on every continent in the world. Since the early 1980s, over 25 million people have died of the disease, and prevalence rates have exploded. AIDS is one of the signature events of our time, and to fight it, we must understand it. This thesis uncovers how the American media constructs the African AIDS epidemic for an American audience with little first hand knowledge of either Africa or the epidemic. Taking metaphor and stigma theories as a theoretical framework, the picture of Africa which emerges from American media coverage is one of a continent and a people thoroughly beaten down by events seemingly beyond their control. This study explores how journalistic use of metaphor, story structure and word choice contribute to the perpetual victimization and stigmatization of individual Africans, and more broadly, entire African countries. In the end, my analysis shows that media coverage of the African AIDS epidemic has remained largely static. Predominantly, the use of metaphors of war to highlight the threat posed by AIDS and the physical descriptions of African patients remain stable throughout this studys twenty-year span. Similarly, journalists continue to stigmatize African AIDS patients by constructing them as the other, a thing of which we ought to be frightened. Further, my analysis provides some, albeit sparse, evidence that there has recently been a shift toward a more collaborative and understanding view of African AIDS patients.
