Diversity In News Coverage
This year’s University of Alaska Anchorage Atwood Chair of Journalism is the first Native to hold the position. Alaska residents come from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds and the state is home to half of the nation’s tribes, yet most of the reporters in the state are white. Does this matter? What changes when there is more diversity in reporting?

The vast majority of Sitkans get their meat and dairy products off a barge, shipped hundreds of miles. But Bobbi Daniels of the Sawmill Farm is determined to change that. Listen now

Ruth Gruber, Photojournalist at the Anchorage Museum
This show, at the Anchorage Museum, came from Ruth Gruber's reporting adventures in the Soviet Arctic, Alaska, and then in Europe and Asia after World War II.

Charred Sugar-Crusted Wild Alaska Salmon
I love ALL Alaskan seafood. Halibut, cod, scallops, spot prawns, king crab...the list goes on. It is THE BEST in the world.

See the recipe.
