Podcasts about Worcester Magazine

En este episodio, David Uriegas y yo conversamos con la politóloga y periodista Alejandra Ibarra Chaoul. Ella ha colaborado en The Washington Post, Gatopardo, Letras Libres, Este País, Worcester Magazine y Ríodoce. Nos contó que en 2018, recibió el Magic Grant de The Brown Institute for Media Innovation de la Universidad de Columbia y la Universidad de Stanfrod. Con él, creó el primer archivo vivo que conserva el trabajo de periodistas asesinados en Mexico. Descubrí que Alejandra y yo somos fans de los podcasts y nos compartió que actualmente dirige la organización Defensores de la Democracia y tienen un podcast que se llama Voces Silenciadas, el cual estuvo nominado al premio Gabo 2021. Pero la conversación de este episodio estuvo centrada en la presentación de su nuevo libro Causa de Muerte: cuestionar al poder, acoso y aesinato de periodistas en México. Esta entrevista la hicimos en colaboración con Revista Abogacía y pronto estará disponible en una de sus ediciones. En esta ocasión, me gustaría que tuvieran dos preguntas presentes al escuchar esta entrevista: Para ustedes ¿Qué significa tomar una postura? ¿Cuales son las causas y los valores que defienden en su vida cotidiana?

Part 2 of my conversation with Charles Pierce continues with more discussion about basketball icon Larry Bird. Pierce, lead political writer for Esquire, also shares in this second of two episodes why covering the NBA in the 1980s was a highlight of his nearly 50 years of writing about sports. He provides anecdotes about Tom Brady and Bill Belichick that illuminate their grand NFL partnership. Pierce recalls the crazy and memorable days at The National Sports Daily. And he breaks down how he reported and wrote his famous GQ magazine profile of the young Tiger Woods. Make sure to check out part 1 with Pierce. In that first episode, we discussed bars, Bird, Bill Buckner's error, Ben Johnson's drug scandal, and 1980s Big East basketball: https://evergreenpodcasts.com/press-box-access/charles-pierce-part-1-they-rolled-the-champagne-out-of-the-red-soxs-locker-room#episodeContent Pierce has been the lead political writer for Esquire since September 2011. He worked nine years for the Boston Globe as a reporter, sports columnist and staff writer for that paper's Sunday magazine starting in 2002. He had previously been a sports columnist for the Boston Herald. Pierce left the Globe in 2011 to join Esquire fulltime after having been a contributing writer for that magazine since 1997. He was a feature writer and columnist for The National Sports Daily in 1990 and '91. His articles on sports and politics have also appeared in GQ, Sports Illustrated, the New York Times Magazine, the Los Angeles Times Magazine, The Nation, The Atlantic American Prospect, Slate, the Chicago Tribune, ESPN's Grantland, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, and the Media Matters blog Altercation.

Don't Tell Me!” and has made appearances on the NPR program “Only A Game.” The Massachusetts native began his journalism career in 1976 at his hometown Worcester Magazine before moving to Boston two years later to write for the alternative publication, The Phoenix. In 2018, the United States Basketball Writers Association inducted Pierce into its Hall of Fame. He won a National Headliners Aware in 2004 for his Boston Globe Magazine piece, “Deconstructing Ted.” He has been named a finalist for the Associated Press Sports Editors' award for best column writing on several occasions. Many of his stories have been featured in the annual compilation, “Best American Sportswriting.” Pierce was a 1996 National Magazine Award finalist for his piece on Alzheimer's disease, “In the Country of My Disease.” He was awarded third place in the Pro Basketball Writers Association's Dan S. Blumenthal Memorial Writing Contest. Pierce is the author of four books: · “Idiot America: How Stupidity Became a Virtue In The Land Of The Free” · “Moving the Chains: Tom Brady and the Pursuit of Everything” · “Sports Guy: In Search of Corkball, Warroad Hockey, Hooters Golf, Tiger Woods, and the Big, Big Game” · “Hard to Forget: An Alzheimer's Story” Pierce earned a degree in journalism from Marquette University in 1975. His alma mater honored him with a “2021 Alumni National Award – Byline Award,” to which Pierce responded: “I'd like to think that my getting this award might encourage students who don't feel like they fit in and show them that this profession still values ferocious eccentricity.” Here's a link to Pierce's political blog for Esquire: https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/ You can follow him on X at: @CharlesPPierce Learn more about your ad choices.

Charles Pierce takes time away from his job as lead political writer for Esquire to reflect on his nearly 50 years of experiences as a sportswriter. In this part 1 of a 2-part episode, Pierce recalls covering Bill Buckner's error, Ben Johnson's drug scandal at the Seoul Olympics, and the rollicking days of Big East basketball in the 1980s. He also provides insight into Larry Bird as a person and basketball icon. Oh, and we discuss bars, too. Sportswriters understand.   Part 2 of my conversation with Pierce will be published on Nov. 8 and include more stories about Bird and discussion about Tiger Woods, Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, the NBA of the 1980s and early '90s, the National Sports Daily, and other tales.   Pierce has been the lead political writer for Esquire since September 2011.
