A Flood of Media: Books & Magazines Dump

Posted by Rowland on June 30 at 5:08 PM DMDers Justin and Carla started a book share here in the office. So I brought in all the books I've read recently. But once the sorting began at home, I discovered some treausres in the magazine world too. Take a look. Topics: free write        0 Comments Read Full Post

The Power of Escape

Posted by Rowland on June 18 at 9:13 PM DMD set out on the first of our summer outings yesterday. We took a tour of the architecture and design galleries at MoMA lead by Christian Larsen, curatorial assistant. Recharged, we are now making a once a month outing as a team over the summer. More on the power of escape, what we saw (and heard) after the jump.

A Loss For Words

Posted by Rowland on June 15 at 9:01 PM I've admired Tim Russert since before he joined Meet The Press. As a young political organizer I recall seeing him on NBC during the 1988 election. Studying the art of rhetoric, I watched with intrigue during the 1992 Election when he grilled the primary candidates. On Friday, many of us at DMD crowded around the TV to hear the news of his passing and expressed the same sense of having lost a respected friend. The rest of this weekend has been non-stop coverage of this giant in the world of journalism. After the jump, I don’t have much to say so I created a word cloud from the New York Times, LA Times, and Washington Post obituaries.  I like the idea of remembering him through words; it reminds me of what he taught me each Sunday morning.
