Local media follow Vermont Cynic on UVM prez reveal - 22 Feb 2012, 8:50 am

With UVM set to introduce its new president on Wednesday, the staff of The Vermont Cynic had been chasing every lead it could to discover who was about to be handed the keys to the presidential mansion.

A break came when Cynic Editor-in-Chief Brent Summers tracked down E. Thomas Sullivan, former University of Minnesota provost, touring that very mansion late Tuesday afternoon.

The Cynic quickly reported the findings on the newspaper’s website and tweeted details and photos from the scene. Local media, which monitor the Cynic’s Twitter feed, dispatched reporters to the mansion, known as Englesby House, at College and Williams streets, where Summers and Cynic staffers were still gathered.

The result was a wonderful little breaking-news coup for the Cynic. Both Vermont Public Radio and The Burlington Free Press gave credit to The Cynic in their late-Tuesday and early Wednesday reports.

The Free Press, which led its front page with a photo from Cynic photographer Alexa Algios, devoted several paragraphs to the Cynic’s work under the subhead “Sneak Peek.”

Sullivan was rumored to be the top pick from five finalists, and his selection became clear after he was sighted Tuesday on a tour of Englesby House, the UVM presidential mansion at College and South Williams streets. The Vermont Cynic, the campus student newspaper, first reported Sullivan’s presence on campus Tuesday.

Cynic executive editor Brent Summers said he and other staffers had been seeking confirmation of Sullivan’s selection all day to no avail. Then as Summers was walking home from campus he noticed the lights were on inside the red brick Englesby House. He knocked on the door and was told the new president was inside.

As the Cynic began tweeting the news, the Burlington Free Press arrived and also knocked on the door, which was answered by University of Vermont Vice President for Executive Operations Gary Derr. He confirmed what the student newspaper was reporting.

Television station WCAX also reported the news, though without directly crediting The Cynic. The station went instead with the more oblique passive voice in its attribution: “Channel 3 news has confirmed . . . “

Tellingly, however, the WCAX report included Algios’s photos and an interview with Cynic News Editor Becky Hayes.
