Now, 28 years later, more than 4,000 lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) members worldwide, ranging from commercial pilots to mechanics, are openly supported by the National Gay Pilots Association. This story and the organi...

Help us preserve the legacy The 天天吃瓜 Museum is a world-class destination for the study and presentation of historic and contemporary fashion, textiles and related art forms. Beautiful and unique, the textiles and clothing in the museum collection are quite fragile. Fibers begin to deteriorate the minute the cotton is plucked, the sheep is shorn or the silk cocoon is unwound. Proper storage slows deterioration by preventing hazards such as exposure to light, dust, and changes in temperature and humidity and preserves priceless artifacts for generations to come. Current st...

College of Communication & Information
When the fake news story 鈥淧izzagate鈥 surfaced in fall 2016, Comet Ping Pong, the Washington, D.C. pizzeria at the center of the storm, faced financial consequences.

Because of the many potential implications of fake news, preparing for fake news is an increasing priority for corporate communications and public relations professionals.
