Jim Romenesko (born September 16, 1953) is an American journalist in Evanston, Illinois. His eponymous blog provided daily news, commentary, and insider information about journalism and media. Romenesko also ran the blog Starbucks Gossip, which covered the Starbucks company. He previously ran the blog Romenesko on the website of the non-profit journalism school the Poynter Institute. Romenesko graduated from Marquette University and went to work for the Milwaukee Journal, serving as a police reporter for the newspaper. Initially repulsed by the sometimes grisly nature of his work, he went on to publish the coroner's reports of unusual deaths in a book called Death Log (1981). From 1982 to 1995 he worked as an editor for Milwaukee Magazine, where he wrote features and an award-winning column that covered the local media called "Pressroom Confidential". During this time he also taught journalism at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He worked as an Internet reporter for the St. Paul Pioneer Press from 1996 to 1999. More information...
