Today's word on journalism

More from the Do-Gooder File:

"For much of his career, he could outthink, out-hustle, out-report, outeat, outdrink and outwork any other journalist in the country. But if his excesses were occasionally unbridled, they were driven by his passion to get a good story and root out the bad guys. ... He could get excited about an investigation of public corruption or a bizarre animal story. We once spent weeks following a story about a dog on 'death row' that Bob believed was 'innocent.'"

--Howard Schneider, former Newsday editor, on the death yesterday of Bob Greene, larger-than-life investigative reporter, editor and Pulitzer winner, April 10, 2008

Richmond council OKs creation of youth safety council

By Matt Sonnenberg

March 27, 2008 | RICHMOND -- The City Council met Tuesday and approved two separate proposals aimed at benefitting local youth.

The first of the two proposals was the proposition of starting a youth safety council throughout Cache County, presented by Mitch Frost of the Cache County Sheriff's Office. The plan for the youth safety council is to have one youth representative selected from each town or city in Cache County to meet with other youth representatives on a quarterly basis to address concerns of youth safety.

Frost said that the youth council will be split into North and a South chapters to cut down on distance to travel for meetings. Frost said that the most likely meeting places for the youth council would be Mountain Crest High School for the South branch and Sky View High School for the North branch.

Councilman Jeff Young volunteered to assist in selecting a local youth to represent Richmond on the youth safety council.

The second of the two proposals was a proclamation for child abuse prevention presented by Child and Family Support Center. The proclamation was to name April Child Abuse Prevention Month. Following a short video presentation, the council approved the proclamation.
