Description: "Orange Journalism brings together 18 prominent writers, editors, and publishers who have nurtured and influenced the high quality of the state's print journalism during the last half-century."

"This unique oral history presents candid conversations with visionary founders, investigative journalists, editorial cartoonists, sportswriters, Pulitzer Prize-winning writers, and publishers of ethnic newspapers. Covering the state geographically, it represents large state newspapers, medium-sized papers, smaller weeklies, all major newspaper chains, and a rapidly dwindling group of independent newspapers. The status of women in a traditionally male profession; the impact of new technology on newspapers; how editorials are written and their long-term impacts; and management differences between large national conglomerates and state newspapers are among the topics discussed with the people on the front lines of the news."

"Orange Journalism delivers the inside scoop on Florida's newspaper business by the people who, through their commitment to this demanding profession, continue to influence the development of the Sunshine State."--Jacket.
