The Journalism Salute is a journalism appreciation podcast. We interview working journalists about who they are and what they do.

Our aim is to have diverse guests, thoughtful questions, and interesting conversation.

If you're an aspiring journalist, you'll learn potential careers to pursue and tips to put to use.

If you're an experienced journalist, you'll learn about like-minded members of your profession with notable stories to tell.

And if you're not a journalist, we hope you'll garner or further an appreciation for journalists and realize that they are NOT the enemy.

  • 2-Time Academy Award Nominee Rick Goldsmith, Director of Stripped For Parts, American Journalism On The Brink
    Oct 14 2025

    On The Journalism Salute we talk to journalists about who they are and what they do, with the intent of showing that journalists are not the enemy of the people.

    On this episode, we're joined by Rick Goldsmith. Rick is a 2-time Academy Award nominated documentary filmmaker. His most recent film, Stripped For Parts, American Journalism On The Brink is streaming on PBS.com through the end of 2025 and is scheduled for airing on many local PBS stations on October 20.

    We talked to Rick both about the movie and how he made it. We explored why Alden Global Capital is so dangerous and what people are doing to fight back against them. Rick also provided advice for aspiring documentary filmmakers.

    And then (35:29) we checked in with Anita Pinto, speech therapist and student newspaper advisor at Urban Assembly Gateway School for Technology in New York City, who shared the growing success of the school's second-year newspaper.

  • Gregorio Olivares Gutierrez, Editor-In-Chief: The Retrograde (UT-Dallas)
    Oct 7 2025

    On this episode we're joined by Gregorio Olivares Gutierrez. He is a political science and philosophy student at the University of Texas at Dallas. He's the editor-in-chief of The Retrograde, a student newspaper that operates independent of school administration.

    He previously was editor-in-chief of The Mercury, which was the campus newspaper that received funding from the school, until school administration took an extremely hostile position towards the paper and local media, leading to a series of events discussed in this episode.

    Gregorio talked about his journalism interest (he took an atypical path to it) and described what he and his staff have been through.
