Абрам Липскеров был владельцем газеты «Новости дня», были у него и скаковые конюшни, также имел громадный особняк сначала на Неглинке, а потом на Мясницкой. Он держал на Покровке открытый дом – и там был стол для "недостаточной интеллигенции", то есть для бедных. Можно было прийти пообедать и получить рюмку водки. У него бывали Шаляпин, Горький и Чехов. "Новости дня" – газета более-менее бульварная, но Гиляровский, Чехов и Дорошевич там тоже печатались.

Pulitzer. È sufficiente il nome perché la mente vada al premio che, da un secolo, è il più ambito nel mondo dell'informazione e incarna l'idea di un giornalismo rigoroso e autorevole. Il premio Pulitzer nasce grazie al lascito di Joseph Pulitzer, uno dei più influenti editori e giornalisti di tutti i tempi, immigrato ungherese che, nel 1864, approdò negli Stati Uniti con pochi soldi e molta intraprendenza. Uomo di straordinario talento, Pulitzer occupò la scena pubblica americana per anni, ingaggiando battaglie e polemiche dalle colonne del suo giornale, il «World».

As the first Chief Climate Correspondent in network news, he is immersed in the latest scientific warnings and breakthroughs while often on the frontlines of disasters, natural and manmade. After the birth of his son in April 2020, Bill began distilling these experiences into a series of Earth Day letters to his boy, weaving together worry and wonder into a poignant reminder that a better future can still be written.

Marguerite Higgins was both the scourge and envy of the journalistic world. A longtime reporter for the New York Herald Tribune, she first catapulted to fame with her dramatic account of the liberation of Dachau at the end of World War II. Brash, beautiful, ruthlessly competitive, and sexually adventurous, she forced her way to the front despite being told the combat zone was no place for a woman. While the Herald Tribune exploited her feminine appeal—it was Maggie's dogged determination, talent for breaking news, and unwavering ambition that brought her success from one war zone to another.

«Questo libro l’ho pensato una sera di qualche anno fa, dopo un reportage realizzato a Taranto, che trovate tra le storie che ho scelto di raccontarvi. Me ne stavo in albergo, a chiedermi: dov’è finita la Costituzione? In quell’istante ho squadernato con la memoria le tante situazioni e persone che ho incontrato in vent’anni di giornalismo. Qui ne trovate alcune. Ciascuna è un frammento di una storia corale, quella dell’Italia repubblicana, che chiama in causa due parole: giustizia e popolo.

Che cos'è oggi la Siria dopo anni di sconfitte e di speranze, di occasioni negate e di lotta quotidiana contro l'indifferenza? È nel difetto, anzi nell'assenza, di qualsiasi solidarietà e riconoscimento di quanto accade che attecchiscono i semi dell'integralismo. Perché non dovrebbe essere così? Abbiamo lasciato soli i siriani all'interno del Paese, ignorando la loro tragedia abbiamo spinto le nuove generazioni al sacrificio, al martirio. Eppure è in Siria che affondano, cristallizzandosi, questioni importanti che toccano il mondo intero.
