After serving 12+ years with Parade Magazine, Kevin Craig, senior vice president and director of newspaper relations at The Arena Group, announced this weekend that he is leaving Parade Magazine. He wrote:

12+ years with Parade Magazine

Over 600 weeks worth of uplifting digital and print content delivered to more than 900 newspapers, their websites and replica editions during that time.

Since then, well over 15 billion copies of this iconic title have been distributed via multiple platforms by partners such as The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times, The Honolulu Star Advertiser, The Boston Globe, The Dallas Morning News, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch and hundreds more.

While my time has come to march in a different parade, it has been a distinct honor to work alongside some of the finest in the business since starting back in April 2011. Thanks to Dave Barber, Jack Haire, Maggie Murphy, Chuck Allen and many others who have trusted me with the keys to the newspaper relations machine and this respected brand for so long.

How Dublin Inquirer uses legal risk assessments to keep accountability journalism moving

When Dublin Inquirer publishes a sensitive accountability story, the challenge isn’t just reporting the facts. It’s deciding whether a small, seven-person newsroom can afford the legal risks that sometimes come with telling the public what it needs to know. For editor and co-founder Sam Tranum and deputy editor Lois Kapila, those decisions once came down to late-night conversations and educated guesswork. Today, the independent Dublin newsroom relies on Reporters Shield’s Legal Risk Assessment service to help identify potential legal vulnerabilities before publication—allowing journalists to move forward with greater confidence while keeping important stories alive.
