Friday, March 12, 2004 American Press Institute Launches BusinessJournalism.org BusinessJournalism.org is a new online resource for editors and reporters who cover business issues. The website is published by the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism at the American Press Institute (API). "In addition to regular business beats, there are often business issues in virtually every coverage area," said Andrew Leckey, director of the Reynolds Center. "BusinessJournalism.org is a resource for both experienced journalists and those still learning the ropes." BusinessJournalism.org provides daily business headlines, market news, a business term glossary, business journalism job listings, tips for journalists, organization listings and academic programs. The site also features articles and insights from business journalism leaders: Diana Henriques of The New York Times writes about investigative business journalism. Anne Marie Squeo of The Wall Street Journal explains how to cover a tough business beat. Jim Flanigan of The Los Angeles Times tells how covering the economy has changed. Jason Zweig of Money magazine warns against accepting investment advice too readily. Mary Flannery of The Philadelphia Inquirer provides insights on business journalism ethics. The Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism, part of the American Press Institute (API), is a nationwide effort to provide a forum and educational opportunities for improving the quality of American business journalism. Funded by a grant from the Las Vegas, Nev.-based Donald W. Reynolds Foundation, the initiative provides free one-day workshops for journalists who cover business issues. The Reynolds Center's flagship site, BusinessJournalism.org, provides resources, tips and advice for business editors and reporters. The American Press Institute (API) is an independent educational center for providing skills-training and leadership development in the news industry, offering seminars, online training and on-site programs for newspaper professionals. In addition to the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism, API also spearheads the Media Center, which conducts research, educational programs and symposia and facilitates strategic conversations and planning on issues shaping the future of news, information and media.
