Reminder: ‘Pressing On’ airs Thursday
Set your VCRs, DVRs or make sure you’re tuned to Mississippi Public Broadcasting Thursday night at 8:00 for the broadcast premiere of “Pressing On,” a documentary profile the five Gulf Coast newspapers’ effort to publish in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Produced by Ralph Braseth, director of the Student Media Center at Ole Miss, and journalism student Brandon Ross, the program was first presented to MPA members during our annual convention last June in Biloxi.
The documentary is also available in DVD format for members to present as a program to staff or civic clubs and other service organizations. To obtain a copy or to set up a presentation with MPA staff and A/V equipment, contact Layne Bruce (lbruce@mspress.org).
