From Society Page to Front Page: Nebraska Women in JournalismEileen M. Wirth never set out to be a groundbreaker for women in journalism, but if she wanted to report on social issues instead of society news, she had no alternative.

Eileen M. Wirth never set out to be a groundbreaker for women in journalism, but if she wanted to report on social issues instead of society news, she had no alternative. Her years as one of the first women reporters at the Omaha World-Herald, covering gender barriers even as she broke a few herself, give Wirth an especially apt perspective on the women profiled in this book: those Nebraskans who, over a hundred years, challenged traditional feminine roles in journalism and subtly but surely changed the world.

The book features remarkable women journalists who worked in every venue, from rural weeklies to TV. They fought for the vote, better working conditions for immigrants, and food safety at the turn of the century. They covered wars from the Russian Revolution to Vietnam. They were White House reporters and minority journalists who crusaded for civil rights. Though Willa Cather may be the only household name among them, all are memorable, their stories affording a firsthand look into the history of journalism and social change.

Great Watch and Worth The Price
Color: 6692:Silver strap&blue dial
My husband loves this watch. I looked at a watch (Bulova brand) it was $650 and it looks just like this watch. I bought this one instead and my husband wears it everyday and is happy with it. It was a great birthday present :) I saved money and so I was able to spend extra $$ on some things I wanted too… umm, maybe I shouldn’t of said that :) lol

Where’s the Lumination ?
Color: 6692:Silver strap&blue dial, Color: 6692:Silver strap&blue dial
I received my watch today and noticed there is no lumination in the dark. That was part of the reason why I liked the blue face model with silver band. It’s the mechanical version. Please let me know. Is this a knock off ?
