17th Anniversary of 9-11...
On the 17th Anniversary of 9-11, we continue prayers for a path to peace. (Picture above - TishTrek and husband Harry @ the podium inside the United Nations General Assembly Hall in New York City). It was the privilege of a lifetime for us to be with leaders from around the world on a night when honoring excellence in writing and reporting was the common language uniting all of us. As one of the proud sponsors of the Annual U.N. Correspondents' Dinner, we enjoyed honoring excellence in writing and communications by helping to fund scholarships for international university students who had the courage & talent to tackle some of the difficult issues of our time. Through their magnificent words, they successfully created content that helped readers see through the lens of their research & life experiences. These students inspired all of us. I have confidence the next generation will pick up where we leave off.

Tucson, AZ: Journalism 101

Welcome to TishTrek - The JOB BLOG: Journalism 101

This post is dedicated to all the career professionals @ Fox News Channel, The Wall Street Journal and all other media outlets who followed the facts to light the way for viewers and readers everywhere during and after the assassination event which killed six and wounded 19 in Tucson, Arizona on Saturday, January 8, 2011.

Thanks for reminding the nation through your reporting that the true tenets of journalism which demand objectivity and a review of the facts have to prevail over the horrific agendas of those hell-bent on doing our citizenry harm through hostile actions, words, and deeds.

With gratitude,
TishTrek

Subject: Thank you Fox News: The Assassination of FACTS in AZ starts with Keith Obermann!


Dear Fox News Family,

THANK YOU for hearing my screams in the wind last weekend. I've appreciated your headlines, thought-provoking news reporting and help over the past four days. Viewers across the globe appreciated having a place to go to assess the FACTS from your programming and we were extremely grateful for the Wall Street Journal editorial on Monday as well. We also want to acknowledge all the other media outlets & journalists who recognized and talked about the actual collision of innocence and evil that played out before our own eyes on the world stage in Tucson, AZ.

On behalf of America's beautiful baby girl, our revered federal judge, the beloved campaign worker, the grandma & mom from New Jersey, the hero husband, and all the others murdered & wounded in Arizona, I'd like to thank Fox News for working tirelessly to counter the outrageous accusations heaped on viewers and readers alike as they were made by Keith Olbermann, Caroline Howard, the Pima Sheriff and the Westboro Baptist Church. Make no mistake, they all selfishly climbed on our dead and didn't think twice about using their bodies as soapboxes to promote their agendas & vendettas to keep political hatred alive.

By every standard, the boundaries of human decency continue to be ignored by these people even as the families of our dead plan funerals. Their legacies and careers will be forever indelibly tied to the damage they tried to do and the pain they tried to inflict off the back of an innocent third grader who was shot to death by a mentally ill man after winning her first Student Council election. Our nation will not forget.

Respectfully submitted,
Tish Ferguson
