 Untitled Document
The founding staff of Straight consisted of Jim Hartz, the director, who had a masters degree in psychology, six young graduates from The Seed, and 54 year-old Helen Petermann, the mother of one of those graduates who was placed in charge of the six young counselors.
Since Director Hartz had no special training in The Seed’s therapeutic methods, it would appear to this writer that much of the training that Jim Hartz and Helen Petermann received on The Seed’s therapeutic methods would have to have come from the six young Seed graduates.
Sembler said that was because Hartz was unaware of the slapping incident.

 Environment Writer -- April 1998   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
To begin with, scientists as a group are not efficient or effective in explaining their work to a lay audience, primarily because they are oriented and focused on the research itself, and are not trained particularly well to communicate that knowledge to the general public.
Lest journalists feel too cocky about that paragraph, Hartz and Chappell point out also that “many otherwise well-educated writers and reporters have never taken the time to become familiar with the culture of science, its language, and its methods.”
Hartz and Chappell hope journalists will better “focus their curiosity on science and technology in much the same way they would on the more familiar topics of politics, economics, crime, and sports — by searching out what’s novel, compelling, relevant.”

Researchers at the First Amendment Center, a media analysis group, have recently released a study that offers some suggestions.
Jim Hartz and Rick Chappell surveyed over 1,400 scientists and journalists for the study, entitled "Worlds Apart: How the Distance Between Science and Journalism Threatens America's Future." They found that scientists largely distrust the media, and are afraid of being publicly embarassed or discredited by sensatioalized media reports.
At the same time, while the media is not beyond hope in understanding science news, reporters and editors have a lot to learn about science.
