Week of introspection at the C-L
A veritable buffet of newspaper-related chatter in the pages of The Clarion-Ledger this week…
- Dr. Samir Husni, head of the Department of Journalism at Ole Miss, is the subject of the Sunday Morning profile in the Perspective section.
- Bill Minor remembers the late, great: “Bob Gordon was short, ever-smiling, the most unthreatening news reporter you could imagine. Didn’t do him much good in September, 1966, when he arrived in coat and tie to cover court-ordered integration of Grenada High School.“
- Ronnie Agnew never met Charles Tisdale: “He was not a dispassionate observer by any stretch. His was a career more of advocacy than of journalism. His funeral Saturday was more than a service about his life, but more a symbol of a bygone era and perhaps the start of a new one.“
