[The Nashville Tennessean Bullpen]

The Nashville Tennessean editor John Seigenthaler (1927-2014) and reporters Frank Sutherland (1945- ) and Wendell “Sonny” Rawls (1941- ) stand in the reporter’s bullpen of the newspaper. Journalism in the 20th century went through tremendous changes as the ability to report on events kept pace with advancing technologies. Radio, television, the internet and now twitter and Instagram have pushed the boundaries of traditional journalism to new levels. With evermore outlets for news, well-crafted and compelling stories are still the hallmark of the journalist.
