I am working on a book and several other smaller projects, all focusing on journalists and media during the Cold War years. Most of my current projects are related to the media and the Vietnam War and related topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background\" style=\"border-radius:4px;background-color:#ffffff;color:#353535\"><strong>Learn More<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\">Coming Soon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-accordion gb-slate-accordion gpb-rounded-md gb-block-accordion gb-font-size-20\"><details><summary class=\"gb-accordion-title\">My Teaching<\/summary><div class=\"gb-accordion-text\">\n<p class=\"has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#1f1f1f\">At Marshall I teach two general kinds of classes.   One focuses on skills-based instruction for students who wish to work as journalists or writers.  The other classes examine mass media institutions and practices in historical and cultural context.
