Newswise — Ben Yagoda is a well-known author who helped inaugurate a journalism minor at the University of Delaware after he began teaching journalism there in 1992. He is also a regular contributor to publications such as Slate, the Chronicle of Higher Education and the New York Times Book Review.

Yagoda makes for an excellent source for stories regarding Donald Trump's recent banning of certain media from covering his events. He said the following regarding Trump's recent ban of the Washington Post: "It’s an outrageous assault on the spirit, if not the letter, of the First Amendment. It’s the kind of thing you might expect from an oversensitive theater producer who doesn’t like a certain critic’s reviews, not from a major party presidential candidate."

Yagoda is available for interviews today. Send an email to [email protected] for details.
