Adam Sneed of the ASU WebDevil writes Friday about the $5.3 million grant given to Arizona State University’s Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism and notes that some of that money will be used to foster relationships with international business journalists.
Sneed interviewed Andrew Leckey, the head of the Reynolds Center.
Sneed writes, “Leckey is also looking into a business journalism exchange program with China and India. He said he spent last summer in China building relationships with businesspeople, and he hopes to build similar relationships with the press in India.
“‘Business is a tremendous opportunity in China because it’s apolitical,’ he said. ‘But the press is still evolving.’
“By seizing these opportunities, Leckey said ASU students would be one step ahead of anyone entering the profession.”
