Chapter Web Sites
The Society of Professional Journalists is now offering free web hosting for
its chapters. This opportunity is open to professional and student chapters.
The web sites will be hosted under the spjchapters.org address. Server space is limited to 50 MB per chapter site. If your chapter would like to
open an account, see the information below.
The following chapters have already taken advantage of this opportunity
and have posted their own sites. Check them out through the links below:
Links to chapter sites not hosted here can be found through
our chapter locator.
Each participating chapter will be responsible
for designing, uploading, and maintaining its own site. Each chapter will be
assigned access via file transfer
protocol (FTP) to its own directory within the SPJ Chapters Web site. All chapter home
pages must include a link back to the SPJ home page. Chapter pages will not
be edited or changed in any way by headquarters staff. However, chapter pages
must be maintained and updated regularly, and the staff reserves the right to
remove a chapter’s site from the server and contact that chapter’s
representative to ask them to update or change its content before the site will
be made active again.

Bio (click to expand)
Bill McCloskey is the retired Washington, D.C.-based Director of Media Relations for AT&T, formerly BellSouth Corp.
Before joining AT&T in 1987, Bill worked for 11 years with The Associated Press in Washington.
Bill's professional career started in 1961, when, as a high school junior, he took a summer newsroom job at Metromedia's WIP Radio in Philadelphia. He remained with Metromedia in Philadelphia until he was drafted into the Army upon graduation from Villanova University in 1966.
Ironically, the Army assigned him to the information office of the 1st Signal Brigade in Vietnam where he wrote press releases about the Army's telephone system.
Following his tour of duty, he was assigned by Metromedia to set up a news department for WASH FM in Washington. From 1968 until 1975, he worked as news director, network correspondent and TV news producer and writer for Metromedia in Washington.
Bill chairs the Radio and Television News Director’s Association Foundation’s annual fund-raising dinner. He is past president of the D.C. Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists and was the Society’s Region 2 director. He has been recognized three times with SPJ’s “President’s Award” for distinguished service to the Society.

Bio (click to expand)
Michael Koretzky was expelled from Boca Raton Academy in 1981, suspended from the University of Florida journalism school in 1989, fired from the South Florida Sun-Sentinel in 1997, and brought up on charges of "malfeasance" and "misfeasance" at Florida Atlantic University in 2005.
He currently advises the FAU student newspaper and freelances, including a weekly copyediting gig for the supermarket tabloids Globe and Examiner.
His career highlights include an appearance on VH1 after Marilyn Manson threatened to kill him (for being the first to report his real name) and creating and selling two alternative magazines, one to the Sun-Sentinel and the other to the one-armed heir of the Listerine fortune. His volunteer highlights include hosting southfloridamediajobs.com and copyediting for South Florida's Homeless Voice, the nation's second-largest homeless newspaper — which he did, ironically, from home.
