-- The Blue Book is BACK in PRINT. Order today!
The 2013-2014 Missouri Official Manual (Blue Book) is now available for ordering.
The 1,536-page, hardback book costs $24.99 per copy, plus shipping charges.
The Missouri Press Foundation, headquartered in Columbia, is coordinating
publication of the book through an agreement with the Missouri Secretary of
State's office.
For more than 100 years, the State of Missouri published the Official Manual as a
hardback book, then discontinued publication after the 2009-2010 edition. A
statute passed by the Missouri General Assembly in 2013, allows a not-for-profit
organization to return the book to hardback form.
The book contains detailed information on local, state and federal government, as
well as stories, essays and pictures that help preserve the state's heritage.
Copies are expected to be available in July. An order form for the Blue Book is
available at www.mopress.com.
Questions may be directed to the Missouri Press Foundation at 573-449-4167.

-- Washington Post, NYT, Mozilla team up for new website comment system
(The Washington Post) -- In an unusual partnership, The Washington Post, the
New York Times and software developer Mozilla will team up to create digital
tools that will make it easier for readers to post comments and photos on news
sites and to interact with journalists and each other.
The two-year development project will be funded by a $3.89 million grant from the
John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Miami-based philanthropic
organization that specializes in media and the arts.
As described by its developers, the as-yet-unnamed system aims to standardize
the many different “community engagement” systems that Web sites now use to
collect and publish outside contributions, especially reader comments and photos.

-- After uproar, St. Louis paper drops George Will column
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch has dropped columnist George Will and told readers
that his provocative column on sexual assault on college campuses was a factor
in the decision. Read more: http://tinyurl.com/nk9r43s

-- AP Style should adopt the Oxford comma
(Poynter) -- Forget Red States versus Blue States. Forget Brazil vs. Argentina in
the World Cup. Want to see the fur fly? Debate the Oxford comma.
The Oxford or serial comma is the one that comes before the “and” in a series
such as: “Kelly, Al, Kenny, Ellyn, Jill, Butch, and Roy teach at Poynter.” AP style,
which Poynter follows, omits that final comma, leaving “Butch and Roy” attached
like “Siegfried and Roy.”

-- An Unusual Media Start-Up: A Local Newspaper
(The New York Times) -- Kevin Boyle has done two stints as editor of The Wave,
a 120-year-old weekly newspaper in the Rockaways that has long been a source
of local news in its seaside Queens neighborhood.
The first came in the late 1990s, and the second began after Hurricane Sandy.
But then last month Mr. Boyle abruptly left after his attempt to buy part of the
paper foundered and he decided to start his own paper, a free weekly called The
Rockaway Times.
And so the Rockaways is about to become something unusual in this fast-moving
digital information age — a two-newspaper town.

-- 7 facts about White House press secretaries
(Pew Research Center) -- In replacing Jay Carney in front of the media, Josh
Earnest becomes the 30th presidential press secretary since the post was created
85 years ago, according to Towson University professor Martha Joynt Kumar, a
leading expert and author on White House communications.
As the guard changes at the press room podium, Kumar helped Pew Research
put together this collection of historical facts and figures about those whose job it
is to position themselves—sometimes as a conduit, sometimes as a shield—
between the commander in chief and the Fourth Estate.

-- Mobile video Do-It-Yourself training at Reynolds Journalism Institute
MobileVideoDIY training sessions planned at the Reynolds Journalism Institute in
Columbia are designed to teach journalists how to get the most of their mobile
device. Summer sessions include: Two, two-day sessions in July (14-15, 17-18); a
two-day session Aug. 4-5; and a low-cost, three-day optional add-on that goes
into much greater depth is available Aug. 6-8.
The training is done in evolutions, starting with the techniques that make for great
photos, video and audio stories regardless of platform. Attendees will then learn
how to gather, edit and produce compelling multimedia stories completely on their
mobile devices. The third evolution is using those devices to create content that
engages readers from the field. Attendees will produce at least one multimedia
piece during the training and will return to their newsrooms with the knowledge
and skills to regularly produce high-quality visual and audio pieces using only their
phones or tablets.

-- Storm chaser who photographed dying 5-year-old takes heat
(The Washington Post) -- The double tornado that wrecked the tiny town of Pilger,
Neb., created a haunting scene — crumpled grain bins, homes ripped open, land
picked clean. But it was the image of a dying 5-year-old that stuck in many
people’s minds. The photojournalist who captured it is now facing criticism.

-- Aaron Kushner: ‘It's Not a Gamble, It's a Simple Business Strategy’
After coming under fire for launching the Los Angeles Register and then
announcing budget cuts a short time later, Freedom Communications CEO Aaron
Kushner is speaking out.
In a wide-ranging interview with TheWrap, Kushner defended himself against
critics who have called him out-of-touch for backing print in the midst of its
widespread decline as a business. The paper, which debuted April 16, billed itself
as the new voice for a sprawling city served by the Los Angeles Times and the
L.A. Daily News, among other outlets. But two months later, Freedom
announced it was enforcing a mandatory two-week furlough for staff at the L.A.
Register and its sister publication, the Orange County Register.
“Ninety percent of our business is print,” he told TheWrap. “It's the core of our
business. It's our core demographic getting our core product.”
