IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
by Jim Sayers
The JFK assassination file that was mandated to be released 50 years after it was sealed was not released. Why did President Trump and AG Barr block the release? The stated reason is that because it affects national security. How convenient. Believe it or not, some events that happened before WWII are still classified under national security as well. If you understand why Continue reading “IF NOT NOW, WHEN?”
WEBSITE CHANGES
The Internet News Alliance was launched with several goals in mind. Time and circumstances have given us a different world so we are getting in step with what we feel will be the best use of our website. Our focus is to join with both professional and citizen journalists to provide meaningful daily news and commentary to our readers. We invite you to become a news contributor and help us evolve.

Microsoft seems to have a problem…
Losing access to an MSN email account due to poor programing by Microsoft…
So, Microsoft has a problem… I know, I know, what company doesn’t. What I am referring to is the fact that Microsoft’s email service at msn.com is no longer free. Of course if you had an account before the switch to the paid service, then you are grandfathered in. So, no harm no foul on Microsoft for that.
What I am talking about is how I inadvertently lost my MSN account and they can’t seem to get it back for me. Continue reading “Microsoft seems to have a problem…”
Responsibilities of the Press
First of all, this article touches on some issues brought up on pages like Who can be a Journalist? and Are Press Credentials Required?

For many, it is a day off of work, and an opportunity to kick-back and relax. But I think we often get Continue reading “Thanksgiving and thankfulness”

The previous day, Jim & I had been to the Miraflores Locks during a Press Briefing, but neither seeing a ‘Panamax’ container ship transiting the locks on the 25th, nor during my first visit to Miraflores nearly 20 years ago, prepared me for Continue reading “A ‘Neo-Panamax’ event”
