ASNE on the move
Death has taken three long-term friends and allies of ASNE.
Al Gollin, 69, was a researcher affiliated with the Newspaper
Advertising Bureau and its successor, the Newspaper Association of America.
Gollin was a key adviser on many of ASNE’s readership and research projects
over the years.
Roy Fisher, 80, was dean of the University of Missouri School
of Journalism. A former editor-in-chief of the Chicago Daily News, and
a former member of ASNE, Fisher was a dogged advocate of the right of the
American people to have access to information possessed by governmental
bodies. He worked with ASNE to help create the Freedom of Information Act.
Dorothy McPhillips, 79, headed the Journalism Education Association
and was closely associated with ASNE’s Education for Journalism Committee
for many years, bringing a focus on high school journalism.
