"Public Figures/Private Lives," a panel discussion examining the sticky issues raised when journalists cover the private peccadilloes of public figures, has been added to the program on Friday, June 17, at 10 a.m. Westword editor Patricia Calhoun will moderate, and Pulitzer Prize winner Nigel Jaquiss and his editor at Willamette Week, Mark Zusman, will serve as panelists. The panel previously scheduled in that time slot -- "Who Does What, When? Sequencing the Editorial and Production Process" -- will now be structured as an open discussion moderated by Santa Fe Reporter editor Julia Goldberg, and will be held an hour earlier at 9 a.m. Both programs are scheduled concurrently with the tour of Tijuana's underbelly, for which buses will depart at 8 a.m. and return after the AltWeekly Awards Luncheon on Friday afternoon.
Chris Rohland resigned yesterday as president and publisher of New York Press, effective May 27. Rohland says he's leaving to "concentrate (his) energies to other projects, including the development of a sales training program" for other publications. He also says that Avalon Equity, the owners of the Press, are not presently seeking to replace him, and that "members of the Avalon team will be overseeing operations until a decision on the publisher position has been made."
