Here are some tips and resources. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/459/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/459/rss Fri, 01 May 09 11:16:00 -0700 At the Newsmakers Luncheon and Be More Awards, Judy Woodruff spoke about balanced, in-depth journalism as a fundamental component of our democracy. This idea hits close to home with the closing of Denver's oldest newspaper, the Rocky Mountain News. We have lost a key player in Colorado's journalism landscape, and we are sorry to see the institution go. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/421/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/421/rss Tue, 03 Mar 09 10:12:00 -0700 Thanks to all who attended our Newsmakers Luncheon and Be More Awards at the Brown Palace Hotel on February 23.

Resolution and relief are just around the corner. I urge each of you - of every political stripe - to get out and vote. Our democracy depends on it. Tune in tonight starting at 7 for complete election night coverage from the "NewsHour" team. In the meantime, what's your electoral vote prediction? Will it be a close call? Think we'll have a decision by the end of the evening? http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/347/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/347/rss Tue, 04 Nov 08 09:55:00 -0700 As public demand for eco-friendly products increases, businesses such as Clorox rush to fill the gap with green products. The "NewsHour" reports on this growing development. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/286/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/286/rss Tue, 02 Sep 08 13:01:00 -0700 It was an unusual holiday weekend. First came the news of Sen. McCain's selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential running mate. Then, the nation crossed its fingers as Hurricane Gustav approached the Louisiana shoreline. Finally, Sen. McCain suspended most opening-day RNC activities. Now that things are back on track, what are your hopes for the Republican convention? And what do you think of the Palin pick? http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/285/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/285/rss Tue, 02 Sep 08 09:30:00 -0700 Last night, I fell backwards into a ticket to the opening night of the Democratic National Convention. While I didn't manage to get a seat inside the arena, I did laps around the perimeter - and came within 10 feet of former President Jimmy Carter. Two days in and two days to go, what are your impressions of convention week? What have you seen so far? And what do you think of the Biden pick? http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/281/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/281/rss Tue, 26 Aug 08 09:44:00 -0700 I wanted to change the subject this week. I really did. But then I saw Charles McGrath's New York Times editorial - "Is PBS Really Necessary?" - and the comment avalanche that followed on the Times' site. It's at 836 at the moment. (Three cheers for new media - I often enjoy reader comments more than the articles themselves.) http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/183/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/183/rss Tue, 19 Feb 08 10:51:00 -0700 Well, so much for objectivity. For once in my life, I'm decidedly keen on a candidate - made up my mind in the last six weeks - but I can't caucus tonight because I'm registered as an independent. The rule is that you must be registered with a party by December 5, 2007, to participate in a caucus. That's no problem for party-line voters, but for independents, it's a pickle. I can see how frustrating this would be for third party candidates and their supporters. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/176/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/176/rss Tue, 05 Feb 08 05:32:00 -0700 In December 2007, Ray Suarez visited Denver for Rocky Mountain PBS' annual Newsmakers Luncheon. After his speech, Ray answered the audience's questions about working in the media and the challenges of covering a presidential election. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/161/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/161/rss Tue, 15 Jan 08 08:36:00 -0700 During his recent visit to Denver Jim Lehrer talked with Rocky Mountain PBS executive producer Cynthia Hessin about news in the 21st century, and the unique niche PBS has in the marketplace. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/9/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/9/rss Sat, 09 Dec 06 14:34:00 -0700 Jim Lehrer, anchor of "The NewsHour," was in Denver December 8 for a Rocky Mountain PBS 50th anniversary luncheon. Lehrer spoke to a packed room at the Pinnacle Club about his career with "The NewsHour," his work moderating presidential debates, his new novel - and even his early days as a Continental Trailways ticket agent in Victoria, Texas. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/8/rss http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/8/rss Fri, 08 Dec 06 14:29:00 -0700
