Davis Merritt é uma lenda no Jornalismo internacional. Lenda no melhor sentido que a palavra pode ter. Autor de quatro livros (o mais recente em 2015, chamado On life, liberty and the pursuit of perfect), esteve no topo do Jornalismo americano por mais de quatro décadas, atuando especialmente para a cadeia Knight Newspapers. Atuou como professor na University of Kansas e na Wichita State University. E, entre 1975 e 1997, atuou na liderança do Wichita Eagle, um diário no qual faria história, ao lançar as bases do que hoje se conhece como Civic Journalism (CJ), uma proposta fundada na visão de que, mais do que simplesmente denunciar problemas da vida em sociedade, o jornalista deve pensar em soluções e, especialmente, estimular a participação do cidadão na vida coletiva.Na entrevista a seguir, Merritt compartilha informações preciosas sobre esse movimento que surgiu no final da década de 1980, ganhou corpo nos anos 1990 e começou a definhar a partir de 2000. No auge, o Civic Journalism era notícia e produzia notícias nos EUA, Colômbia, Bolívia, Argentina, Brasil, Portugal, Espanha e em muitos outros países. Agora, mais de 30 anos depois de suas primeiras inquietações sobre os rumos de então do Jornalismo, Merritt rememora os tempos inaugurais (inclusive destacando o papel de Jay Rosen, considerado o outro criador do Civic Journalism), esclarece a questão Civic Journalism / Public Journalism (que, aliás, ele prefere, como se percebe em todas as suas respostas) e pensa sobre o tempo presente.Sobre este quesito Civic Journalism / Public Journalism, cabe destacar o que segue: todos as perguntas feitas a Merritt fazem menção ao Civic Journalism, já que esta é a denominação mais conhecida no Brasil e em outras nações. Merritt, como ponderado antes, prefere Public Journalism (PJ). Por uma questão de respeito à opinião do entrevistado, mantivemos PJ em suas respostas. Essa dualidade, inclusive, é parte da riqueza dessa conversa sobre uma das mais inovadoras formas de se pensar e fazer Jornalismo nos últimos 50 anos.

Davis Merritt is a legend in International Journalism. Legend in the best sense that the word can have. Author of four books (the most recent in 2015, called On life, liberty and the pursuit of perfect), has been at the top of American Journalism for more than four decades, working especially for the Knight Newspapers chain. He served as a professor at the University of Kansas and at Wichita State University. Between 1975 and 1997, he served as head of the Wichita Eagle, a diary in which he would make history, laying the foundations of what is now known as Civic Journalism (CJ), a proposal founded on the idea that, rather than simply denouncing life's problems in society, the journalist must think about solutions and, especially, stimulate citizen participation in collective life.In the following interview, Merritt shares invaluable information about this movement that emerged in the late 1980s, gained in the 1990s, and began to languish in 2000. In its maximum moment, the Civic Journalism was news and produced news in the US, Colombia , Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, Spain and many other countries. Merritt recalls the inaugural times (including highlighting the role of Jay Rosen, considered the other creator of CJ), clarifies the Civic Journalism / Public Journalism (more than 30 years after his initial concerns about Journalism's, so he prefers, as one perceives in all his answers) and thinks about the present time.On this issue Civic Journalism / Public Journalism (PJ), it is possible to emphasize what follows: all the questions made to Merritt make mention to the Civic Journalism, since this is the denomination better known in Brazil and in other places. As a matter of respect for the interviewee's opinion, we kept PJ in his responses. This duality is part of the richness of this talk about one of the most innovative ways of thinking and doing Journalism in the last 50 years.

This is the fifth of a six-part series on diversion of controlled substances in an acute health care setting. The six articles are meant to accompany the recommendations in the Hospital Pharmacy article “Controlled Substance Diversion Detection: Go the Extra Mile” for a comprehensive analysis of all aspects of controlled substance handling. 1 The series focuses on preventing diversion from automated dispensing cabinets (ADCs), the operating room, and at all handling points within a pharmacy. The objective of the series is to provide practical recommendations to aid pharmacy managers as they seek to prevent or detect diversion. Experience is key to diversion detection; however, a pharmacy should not have to experience its own diversion in order to learn from it. The collective experience of pharmacy leaders at the Ohio State University Medical Center and the University of Kansas Hospital are gathered to assist other pharmacy leaders in the hopes that they do not have to gain this experience firsthand. This article will describe the features of one popular reporting software package along with the experience that the University of Kansas Hospital has had in using this software. This description is an attempt to demonstrate the value of an add-on software package and to encourage its use by more hospital pharmacies.
