Winstrom leaves
Dave Winstrom, who has served two terms as president of ETSPJ, is leaving Knoxville to become director of News Edge for the Fox Network in New York. Winstrom will manage the news service, which covers news from all over the world for the Fox network and its affiliates across the United States. More than 100 Fox affiliates are carrying news programming. The News Edge operation has 120 employees in the United States and seven bureaus throughout the world. Winstrom will be based in New York, but expects to spend a lot of time traveling. Winstroms family will remain in Knoxville because this is our home, he said. They are delaying decisions about moving until school is out. We hate to leave Knoxville, but Im really looking forward to the challenge, Winstrom said. While in Knoxville, Winstrom was a news executive at WATE, Channel 6, and WVLT, Channel 8. He has also done freelance work for ABC in Atlanta, 20/20 and the Food Network. I'll miss my friends and associates with ETSPJ, but I hope to be in and out of town often. I'll be checking my e-mail if anyone wants to contact me, Winstrom said. His e-mail address is IndyDave5@aol.com.
here's what headquarters is going to do on a trial basis: One year memberships -- pro, student, retired and associate -- can be charged in two equal installments (just like the infommercials!). For example, a regular one-year pro membership at $70 can be paid for in two installments of $35 each. SPJ also has introduced multiple-year memberships at discounted rates, also with installment payments. For example, two-year pro membership, regularly $140, is now $125; and three-year pro membership, regularly $210, is now $185. Details will be on the Web site (www.spj.org) soon. The promotion will be tried through the end of 1999 and then evaluated to see if discounts and installment payments make a difference.
