Good video via Bob DeMay's photog blog

Here’s a link to a video stolen from Bomb DeMay’s blog for Ohio newspaper photographers. Thanks, Bob.

The video, "God Rest Ye Weary Journalist", was made by Adam Jadhav, a multimedia reporter and Joel Currier, a metro reporter at the St Louis Post-Dispatch. The pair made the video for the paper's "unofficial" Christmas party. This is what happens when the company cuts the Christmas party from the budget and leaves it to the hands of their employees.

Former ONPA member and Kent State University graduate Emily Rasinski brought her co-workers efforts to the attention of members of a Kent State University photographers discussion group. Rasinski has been a staff photographer at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch since January and says she is quite happy there, but nervous about the next round of layoffs. We can all relate to that.

Before joining the Post-Dispatch Rasinski worked at The Evening Sun in Hanover, PA where her portfolio placed third in the small market portfolio category of the 2008 NPPA Pictures of the Year competition. While a student at Kent State she interned in Ohio at the The Advertiser-Tribune in Tiffin and the Akron Beacon Journal.
