For those of you who are interested, the "new"--ok, fairly new, Managing Editor of the "CT Law Tribune"* as of April 2012 is a home grown boy. He graduated from Western Connecticut State University with a B.A. in English Literature and Sociology. He doesn't say when, but he is not the first person to be shy about his age! He then continued on to obtain a Certificate in Court Reporting at the National Judicial College in 2007, and he obtained a fellowship in Legal Affairs Journalism in 2009 at John Jay College of Criminal Justice (CUNY)
Jay Stapleton is an expert in digital strategy, corporate storytelling, and editing. Bouncing back and forth between sunny Florida and stately, but frequently cold New York State, Mr. Stapleton has covered the news from finding a child's lost dog, to revealing systemic problems with 911 operators, to exposing how "a group of low-income first time homebuyers were taken advantage of by an unscrupulous developer and left with high mortgage payments and substandard homes." In the course of his work, he was presented with "a coveted New York State Associated Press writing award in the breaking news category."
Now, of course, he intends to make his mark as the somewhat new Managing Editor of the CT Law tribune. Welcome to Corrupticut, Mr. Stapleton!
