2016 APSE winners being posted this week

Granted it has been a hot minute since I looked up anyone's circulation numbers, but Memphis is under 75k now? Ouch.

 

We need to work for Indian, Japanese or Chinese newspapers.

India: "Times of India" circulation increased from 2.951 million to 3.322 million from 2008 to 2013.
"Dainik Jagran" circulation increased from 2.384 million to 3.113 million from 2009 to 2013.

Japan: "Yomiuri Shimbun" circulation: 9.690 million. "Asahi Shimbun" circulation: 7.450 million. "Mainichi Shimbun" circulation: 3.322 million.

 

I don't think they'd "get" my voice.

 

I wonder if those papers work to protect the writer's voice from the backfield.

 

13 media groups win top sports journalism prize

Congrats to all. (My name is in there, too )

Also: "Matt L. Stephens of the Fort Collins Coloradoan and Brad Elliott Schlossman of the Grand Forks (N.D.) Herald led the individual awards, capturing four each."

If I'm not mistaken, Stephens posts on this board. What a haul. Way to go.

 

Pretty sweet to be in a situation where you have four high school writers, a college writer, an SE and off-site pagination. You better goddamn rake in U-30,000.

 

Cheery fella, you are!

 

Ah, that familiar attitude. Anyone who succeeds must be overstaffed! Newspapers have done so well with that approach.

 

I would hardly count that as a positive.

 

Cmon now.

 

First off, congrats to all the winners.
Not saying you can't succeed, but it makes it much harder when they tell you you're going to be the beat writer for a college program and then three months into the job the sports editor retires, and instead of hiring another person they tell you to do the desk and take prep calls twice a week. When you're understaffed, you're not going to be able to do all the stories you want, that's just a fact. We've done well, all things considered. Placed top 10 daily sections. But it hasn't been easy, and all you can think about is how much more you could do if they just hired another person.
