Crutchfield’s 11th job with Marshall Project
Former BJ managing editor Jim Crutchfield was named editor-in-chief
of the Marshall Project’s first local news team in Cleveland.
He began at the Pittsburgh Press in 1968, did PR for the Pittsburgh
Model Cities Program, reporter for Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, managing editor of
the BJ, executive editor of the Long Beach Press-Telegram, deputy managing
editor for the Detroit Free Press, press secretary for Senator Carl Levin and,
from 2001-2006, president and publisher of the BJ, then Gaylor Visiting
Professor of Journalism Ethics at Arizona State’s Journalism School and next
the journalism faculty of Duquesne University in Pittsburgh.
He always keeps an empty suitcase handy for his next move.
He wears more hats than Stuart Warner.
The Marshall Project is online journalism focusing on criminal
justice in America. Its leaders are former hedge fund manager Neil Barsky and
former New York Times executive editor Bill Keller. One out of two isn’t bad
unless it’s your college’s conference standings. Then it’s the unfortunate
.500.
