Friday marks a major transition of note here at the NewsHour. Russ Clarkson, who has led our news team for nearly 25 years, is retiring. Russ represents all that is great about the NewsHour. He and his team are the beating heart of the broadcast. His editorial judgment and commitment to the highest standards have shaped the newsroom and helped us maintain the level of excellence we strive for every day. His wisdom and experience have been invaluable, and his presence will be deeply missed. There’s a whole generation of journalists out there telling stories with graduate degrees from the School of Russ Clarkson under their belts – and our industry and our world are better for it. Here’s to a wonderful retirement!
