Very sad to hear about the passing of Cokie Roberts. Had the honor to meet her as the Mistress of Ceremony for charity kick-off event I co-chaired in memory of my sister-in-law, The Amy Strelzer Manasevit Research Fund in partnership with The Marrow Foundation that launched in 1998. This fund has since become a $110 million dollar research program to help with post transplant marrow complications and help more researchers save lives and life longer and healthier lives as a result. Cokie was so genuine. She greeted each of us on the committee as life long friends and after talking to Stu and Amy's family, weaved in the most beautiful stories about Amy as if she knew her forever. Thanks to Stuart Strelzer who was at ABC at that time - the best of the best came out to support this event including Bob Iger (now Disney Chairman), Peggy Flemming, Cokie Roberts, Robert Douglas Wilson of ABC Sports Directing Fame.... I still smile when I think of Cokie and her lovely way of engaging us and feeling part of us and caring. May you rest in peace.

Having worked with Liz Smith at the onset of my own career in PR....this leaves me a bit melancholy. Reporters like her were the great "legends" to woo and respect as stories were carefully pitched to intrigue Ms. Smith. May she RIP. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/12/arts/liz-smith-dead.html

Ms. Smith’s column ran for more than three decades, and she offered a gentler view of movie stars and moguls than many other gossip writers.

What's in a name?

Gone are the days of mixing up lunch plans with an emergency contraceptive– Plan B Burger Bar is no more. The unfortunately-named restaurant which opened on Pennsylvania Avenue last November has ditched its morning-after moniker and will now be simply known as b. No more plan. No more burger bar. J…

Where freedom of speech exists, freedom of the press to report must be allowed. Having attended SU Newhouse School, witnessing this request for bias media goes against every grain of education a university should be fostering.

Biased media only, please.

How do businesses think predatory sales tactics promote their image or sale's volume? In 2015 shouldn't companies be evolved to stop engaging in tactics like this? Feel free to comment.

Pleasing investors, but losing their differentiation in the marketplace. Exactly how will they handle a family of 4 traveling with the luggage pricing scheme - especially during a fare sale.

Despite the space reduction, the airline still has more legroom than most of its competitors.
