My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Jack Maher, author of the book Poppy. Jack is a proud fifth generation Colorado native and grandson of Eric Douglas. Poppy is his first novel. A four-time National Television Arts & Sciences Heartland Chapter Emmy winner, he worked at KUSA-TV in Denver as a 9NEWS Multimedia Journalist and Executive Producer. In my book review, I stated Poppy: A Novel About A Colorful Colorado Life is a family memoir written about Poppy by his grandson, Jack. I love family history, and I love it when a child or grandchild feels that their progenitors are worthy of recall. Eric Douglas's life, known affectionately as Poppy, is incredible. Through him, we learn about Native Americans in and around Colorado, especially their art and the processes (clay, paint, beadwork, and more) passed on through the generations. We watch Poppy push Native American art to the forefront in Denver, but also in New York City, and San Francisco. We learn of his new ways to display art, his 'fashion shows' highlighting textile art, and his work to provide live demonstrations. Poppy lived an unusual life that often took him from his family. But still, his family meant everything to him. I loved learning about Poppy, and I think you will, too!

In this shocking Browns news video, we reveal why the fans aren't thrilled with the team's big plans to possibly trade for Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy. Listen daily to the Locked On Browns Podcast to stay up-to-date on all the latest Browns news! Rumors are circulating that the Browns are making a huge push to land Jerry Jeudy. This would be the Browns biggest offensive move during this NFL free agency period. But is it good news for the team or bad news? In this video, we reveal all the details so you can make an informed decision about whether or not to follow the Browns during the free agency period! The Cleveland Browns “haven't slammed the door shut” on the possibility of trading for Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, according to a report from Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot. The Broncos are seeking “at least” a first-round pick in exchange for Jeudy, according to previous reporting from The Athletic. The Browns do not hold a first-round pick this year or in 2024, so they would presumably need to include a high second-round pick and a player, or multiple picks to get a potential deal done. “The Broncos don't plan to trade Jeudy, their 2020 No. 15 overall pick out of Alabama, unless someone makes them an offer they can't refuse,” according to Cabot. The Dallas Cowboys enquired about Jeudy before the NFL trade deadline last season, and the New England Patriots have called about Jeudy this offseason, according to The Athletic. Denver has also received calls about Courtland Sutton and KJ Hamler, but the Broncos have held firm in their asking price. Last week, KUSA-TV reported that “it doesn't appear” Denver will trade Jeudy or Sutton. It's unclear if that's accurate, or if it was just the team's attempt to gain leverage in negotiations with other teams. Jeudy, 23, has one year left on his rookie contract, plus a team option for the 2024 season. With just five picks to use in this year's draft, the possibility of the Broncos trading the wide receiver can't be ruled out.#BrownsBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

14-year-old Colorado girl SHOT while she was making a TikTok video. A 14-year-old girl was shot and murdered while making a TikTok video; three persons, including two minors, have been arrested in connection with her killing. The Monte Vista Police Department reports that at 3:30 p.m. on August 7, officers responded to a shooting call in the 300 block of Monroe Street and located a young female victim suffering from gunshot wounds. When emergency medical services arrived, they pronounced her dead. The Monte Vista Police Department stated on August 11 that detectives had arrested two female adolescents for reckless manslaughter and possession of a weapon by juveniles. Another male, 21-year-old Emiliano Vargas, was arrested on charges of providing or allowing a minor to possess a pistol and failing to comply with the law regarding the secure storage of firearms. It has been said that he was the owner of the pistol used in the fatal shot but was not there at the time. The affidavit states that the cops discovered the woman on the floor "with blood and other fluid" gushing out of her head. The police then reportedly discovered a pistol in a separate bedroom; the house where the shooting took place speculated that one of the two teens had hidden the weapon there after the incident. According to reports, Vargas and another minor shared the Monroe Street residence with his grandmother. A minor was "informed that the juveniles were handling the gun and recording movies on 'TikTok,'" according to one of the two responding cops. Officers were told by one of the minors that they removed the clip and "it simply occurred." In the affidavit, it is stated that because no exit wound was discovered, "the bullet remains in the skull of the victim." The investigation states that Vargas "routinely" allows one of the minors to use his gun, which he leaves "visible and unlocked on a top shelf," because he "trusts" them. Teenager Aaliyah Salazar, 14, was named as the victim by KUSA-TV. She "had just become a teenager and [was] so excited to attend her freshman year of high school," as her obituary puts it. Aaliyah had a number of pets, including three dogs, a cat, a turtle, and a few hamsters, for which she was "the proud mama." She "knew she was going to be famous one day" because of her interest in creating TikTok videos KUSA report.s that some of Aaliyah's relatives think the gunshot "was on purpose." The Colorado State Attorney's Office is apparently in charge of the investigation. Wisconsin inmate claims he had sex with a jail supervisor twice A prison administrator, age 37, was arrested and charged with having a sexual relationship with an inmate. The Racine County Sheriff's Office received information concerning a possible relationship between Racine Correctional Institute supervisor Jacqueline Heidt and an inmate on August 24, according to a press release. It has been reported that investigators seized Heidt's cellphone and uncovered evidence, including photos and messages, to back up the accusations. According to the Sheriff's Office, the claimed romance started in April and lasted until August 4. The detainee allegedly informed investigators that they had sex in Heidt's office several times a week. According to the Sheriff's Office, the two engaged in "sexual intercourse at least 20 times, but less than 40 times." As well as having sexual relations through intercourse, the two allegedly engaged in other sexual activities. The Sheriff's Office claims that Heidt was interviewed on August 25 but rejected the allegations. After being shown the phone evidence, the Sheriff's office said she "changed her manner and stopped responding questions." Reportedly, Heidt was taken into custody and charged with second-degree sexual assault by correctional employees, misconduct in public service, and delivery of illicit materials to a prisoner. She has a bond set at slightly over $1.1 million and is still being held in the Racine County Jail. A 49-year-old man was given a 35-year prison term for his persistent sexual assault of two minors. The Collin County District Attorney's Office alleges that Mark Jones, who had unrestricted access to two children, aged 10 and 14, for a number of years, sexually molested them. Apparently, the victim penned a letter to God describing the abuse, and one of her parents later discovered the letter and informed the authorities. The District Attorney's Office claims that the note's discovery led to the identification of a second young victim. It has been stated that both youngsters were interviewed by authorities and disclosed the existence of abuse. The District Attorney's Office stated on August 29 that Jones was sentenced to 35 years in jail without parole for his long history of child sexual abuse. Greg Willis, the district attorney for Collin County, made the following statement: "When even one child is victimized by a sexual predator over a long period of time, it is a tragedy for the entire community. It's unthinkable that this pervert sexually harmed not one but two young children." A grandpa is believed to have punched his daughter's fiancé after he exposed himself to the child, who was then 5 years old, at their home. After reportedly exposing himself to a 5-year-old girl, a 22-year-old man was arrested last week on multiple offenses, including attempted rape. Attempted rape of a child, indecent assault, unlawful contact with a juvenile, corruption of minors, and indecent exposure were among the charges against Aaron Cunagin, who was detained on August 24 by police from the Middletown Borough Police Department at the Pineford Apartments. His bond was set at $150,000 and he was put into the Dauphin County Prison. Penn Live reports that Cunagin and the girl were in the girl's bedroom/playroom at the time of the alleged incident. There are rumors that the girl's grandfather felt it strange to see his granddaughter sitting on Cunagin's lap, but he nonetheless left the room. When the victim's grandfather returned to check on him and Cunagin, he allegedly found Cunagin with his pants down and his genitalia exposed. It was also said that the girl was barefoot and pantless. It has been stated that the grandfather yelled, punched, and phoned the police on Cunagin. Police say Cunagin told them, "Simply, the thought occurred to me. I went in and out of arguments with myself. Feelings of numbness pervaded me. I sat there thinking while holding it." When questioned further about the nature of "it," he allegedly revealed that he was referring to his privates. According to the Centre Daily Times, which also relies on court documents, Cunagin is accused of saying that he was "fighting himself whether or not to have sex with the victim." The Centre Daily Times reports that the girl said this happened four other times, although Cunagin denied it. He reportedly proposed to the granddaughter of his late father.

The moral curve of history is bending closer to the arc of equal justice for all. With President Joe Biden's appointment of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the U.S. Supreme Court a move 232 years and 115 justices in the making. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's exemplary background reflects the Biden administration's commitment to nominating exceptional judges at every level. Upon confirmation, Judge Jackson would not only have more experience than four of the current justices combined, but she would also be the first and only justice with experience as a public defender. Judge Jackson served as an assistant public defender from February 2005 to June 2007, before returning to work in corporate law. As a 2020 report from the Center for American Progress outlined, judges with more diverse professional experience improve jurisprudence so that it better acknowledges people's unique lived experiences. Judge Jackson's experience as a public defender deepens her understanding of the U.S. justice system and how it touches people's lives. , Judge Jackson would replace former Justice Stephen Breyer, the justice for whom she clerked from 1999 to 2000. Judge Jackson's clerkship experience provided her with an insider's view of the operations of the court, as well as deep knowledge of Justice Breyer's consensus-building approach to the role of justice. To dive deeper into this historic appointment, I enlisted the expertise of Whitney Traylor Legal Analyst at KUSA-TV, 9NEWS in greater Denver. Who joined me to discuss the legal and societal implications of this monumental moment and its impact on American history For more information: https://traylorlawgroup.com/ LinkedIn: @WhitneyTraylor Discover More www.Youtellmepodcast.com

For five months, the Telling the Story podcast has been delayed by current events - both external in the world (COVID-19) and internal in my life (the arrival of my second daughter!). But it returns now - and with an all-star guest. Chris Hansen is a senior photojournalist at KUSA-TV. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, he was a standard-setter in finding beautiful, innovative, and thoughtful ways of shooting and editing stories. Since the pandemic - with numerous restrictions on where he can shoot video and how he can conduct interviews - Hansen has found new ways to persevere. Take this story, where he interviewed neighborhood residents on their front lawns with the help of their cell phones. Or this one, where he used the drone to capture and illustrate the emptiness of Denver's streets during a stay-at-home order: Hansen is my guest on Episode #76 of the Telling the Story podcast. He is also a speaker at the upcoming NPPA Virtual Video Storytelling Workshop, taking place August 7 & 8 online. I'm directing the workshop and am thrilled to bring on two dozen talented journalists to present about topics from COVID-19 to digital dominance. Sign up now, and get ready to be inspired. → The post PODCAST EPISODE #76: Chris Hansen, senior photojournalist, KUSA-TV appeared first on Telling The Story.

I may have said this a time or two in the past month: The Olympics are an extraordinary assignment. I have had the privilege of covering the event three times, most recently this August in Rio de Janeiro. I find the assignment tests me in a variety of ways, both professionally and personally, and provides both unique challenges and wonderful memories. I have not been alone. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of journalists descend upon the Olympics every two years, and they are all tasked with providing a window for their readers and viewers that enables a greater connection to both the Games and their host city. I saw few handle this as deftly as the team at KUSA-TV in Denver. The NBC affiliate (and TEGNA sister station) comes equipped with a team of journalists who consistently make the extra push to tell the best story for their audience. One of those journalists, morning anchor Cheryl Preheim, is my guest on this episode of the Telling The Story podcast. I got to know Preheim at the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi and worked with her again in Rio. In both cases I marveled at her abilities as a storyteller and her disposition as a person. Through a grueling 25 days, she always seemed to find the energy and optimism while putting together great work for her viewers. Listen to this podcast, and you'll get a window into what makes Preheim such a strong storyteller -- and what makes the Olympics such a daunting yet rewarding assignment. → The post PODCAST EPISODE #43: Cheryl Preheim, morning anchor, KUSA-TV appeared first on Telling The Story.
Sometimes we forget the cold hard potential of what we can accomplish in journalism. Chris Vanderveen is a good reminder. (As evidenced from his photo above with the Most Interesting Man in the World, he also knows how to keep good company.) After more than a decade as an award-winning general assignment reporter for KUSA-TV in Denver, Vanderveen applied for a job within his station to join the investigative team. He got it, and he has been throwing journalistic haymakers ever since. Specifically, Vanderveen has produced stories and led movements that have changed laws. He brings a storyteller's sensibility to the often tough-to-digest world of investigative journalism. I-Team stories tend to come across as an overload of numbers and data, except when in the hands of a reporter who can give viewers a reason to care. Vanderveen is my guest on this episode of the Telling the Story podcast. → The post PODCAST EPISODE #38: Chris Vanderveen, reporter, KUSA-TV appeared first on Telling The Story.

Try to follow the career path on this one. Anne Herbst studied journalism in college with the intentions of being a newspaper reporter. Her professor said she was better at shooting video, so she became a staff photographer at a TV station. She got hired as a staff photographer at KUSA-TV in Denver -- one of the top shops in the country for video journalism -- but gradually began writing her own stories ... to which reporters would then put their voices. She left KUSA to become a solo video journalist at the Denver Post. If you're scoring at home, Herbst went from a TV station to a newspaper and went from being a traditional photographer to doing everything herself. This past year, she returned to TV as the assistant chief photographer at KDVR-TV, Denver's FOX affiliate. Herbst is a hallmark of developing numerous skills and leveraging one's talent to find high-quality positions in the field of journalism. She has charted her own course in many ways, always finding ways to progress and improve. Oh, and it helps that Herbst is really, really good at her job.
