Professional Podcasts Produces Audio Tribute to Philippine Newspaper Publisher



Max Soliven, Publisher of Philippine Star, Died November 24 in Japan



CHERRY HILL, NJ – December 9, 2006 -- Cherry Hill-based Professional Podcasts LLC has produced a podcast tribute to legendary Philippine journalist Max Soliven, publisher of the Philippine Star newspaper and popular www.philstar.com web portal, who died suddenly on a business trip to Japan November 24.

Soliven, 77, wrote extensively on politics in Southeast Asia over a 50 year journalistic career. He filed his last column, about Japanese politics, the day before he died. As usual, he prepared the column on his beloved manual typewriter and faxed it to the newspaper.

He was recognized with a French Legion of Honor citation several years ago, and President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo posthumously awarded him the Order of Lakandula, the highest civilian honor in the Philippines. Before beginning his journalism career, the publisher studied at Harvard University with Prof. Arthur Schlesinger and Dr. Henry Kissinger.

During the Ferdinand Marcos regime, Soliven took pride in the fact that he was jailed in the same cell with opposition leader Benigno Aquino.

Ironically, Soliven and his paper faced criminal libel charges filed by Aquino’s widow, Corazon, when she became president of the country after Marcos was deposed. According to Soliven, the charges stemmed from a column the paper published alleging that Aquino and her daughter hid under a bed during the coup that overthrew her predecessor.

Steve Lubetkin, managing partner of Professional Podcasts, met Soliven during his recently completed speaking tour of the Philippines. Lubetkin and Soliven were keynote speakers at “Mindmap: Charting The Course of PR In A New Media Age,” the 13th National Congress of the Public Relations Society of the Philippines, held in Manila in late September.

During the trip, Lubetkin recorded several presentations and interviews for production into podcasts, but immediately focused on Soliven’s remarks when he learned of the publisher’s death.

“Max Soliven was a towering figure in journalism in Southeast Asia,” Lubetkin said. “I was glad I had the opportunity to meet him and hear about his career. We produced the podcast excerpting Max’s remarks so that others can benefit from his insights and his wonderful sense of humor.

The podcast featuring Soliven’s remarks can be downloaded at www.lubetkin.net, and is available in the Apple iTunes Music Store under podcasts, and on the Lubetkin's Other Blog (http://lubetkinsotherblog.blogspot.com) and Compuschmooze (http://compuschmooze.blogspot.com) podcast program feeds.

Lubetkin’s visit to the Philippines was underwritten through a grant from the US Embassy, and facilitated through the Global Public Relations Initiative of the Public Relations Society of America. Lubetkin completed a three year term on the PRSA national board of directors in 2005.

During his week-long visit, he also spoke to more than 100 journalism and mass communications students at the Mass Communications Department of the University of the Philippines (Diliman) and before 150 members of the Junior Entrepreneurial Marketing Association at De La Salle University in Manila. He also was interviewed on the Studio 23 "Breakfast" Show produced by ABS-CBN, one of the two major national TV networks in the Philippines.

An account of his trip appears in the current issue of Attitudes, the quarterly lifestyle publication of the Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey.

The firm launched its Internet broadcasting practice in April 2005, counseling clients about the effective use of podcasts and blogs.

Brookdale Community College’s Conflict Resolution Forum Available as Podcasts

 

CHERRY HILL, NJ – November 13, 2006 – Cherry Hill-based Professional Podcasts LLC, a division of Lubetkin Communications, has created podcast audio programs from the Fourth Annual Conflict Resolution Forum held earlier this year by Brookdale Community College’s Center for World War II Studies and Conflict Resolution.

Professional Podcasts, a leading New Jersey producer of Internet-distributed audio programs (known as “podcasts”) for businesses and organizations, produced two podcast audio programs featuring the presentation “The World of Islam,” featuring Audrey Shabbas, noted author and National Representative of the Middle East Policy Council. The event was jointly sponsored by the Brookdale International Center, the Brookdale Center for Holocaust Studies, Brookdale Office of Student Life and Activities, and Alwalweed Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, Georgetown University. More information about the program is available at http://www.brookdale.cc.nj.us/fac/tlt/ww2/2006forum.php.

            “We are thrilled to be using podcasting technology to make our programs available to a much wider audience,” said Prof. Paul Zigo, director of the Center for World War II Studies and Conflict Resolution and an assistant professor of history at Brookdale. “Our goal has always been to engage the widest possible audience in a productive dialogue about how better multicultural understanding can help reduce or resolve conflicts. By making our conversations on these topics accessible to a worldwide audience through podcasts, we hope to contribute to the overall goal of achieving that understanding.”

            The Conflict Resolution podcasts are the first in a series of podcasts being produced by Brookdale with Professional Podcasts. The firm will also produce and distribute a podcast from the upcoming November 30 seminar on the changing face of journalism.

 “Using podcasting to extend the reach of this important dialogue on conflict resolution demonstrates that Brookdale and its event partners have a clear vision for best-practices integration of such new social media into educational applications,” said Steven L. Lubetkin, managing partner of Professional Podcasts. “Brookdale is ahead of the curve because it realizes that podcasts can provide its communities with important information more conveniently. It doesn’t limit those audiences to a less-flexible programming format like a conference call or a web stream, where busy and time-constrained participants either must gather at a common time or remain stationed by a computer. Podcast listeners get the information they need – delivered at a time when they want it.”

Podcasts are digital audio or video recordings distributed using Internet technology. Visitors to an organization’s website can download podcast programs for review on their desktop computers, or synchronize them with a portable digital media device. Software programs called “feed readers” or “podcatchers” allow users to “subscribe” to podcasts at no cost, and receive new programs in a podcast series automatically.

            Visitors to Brookdale’s web site (http://www.brookdalecc.edu) can download the podcast recording for review on their computers or portable digital audio players at no cost. The podcasts are also available on a special podcast blog site (http://bccpodcasts.blogspot.com), an RSS feed for subscribers (http://feeds.feedburner.com/bccpodcasts), and through the Apple iTunes Music Store (www.itunes.com).

Recordings of the daylong seminar were divided into six podcast programs, each about one hour in length:

 

·                The Last 20 Years: A Report Card for New Jersey

The podcast programs will be available for downloading and listening on computers or digital audio players at no charge at Leadership New Jersey’s website (www.leadershipnj.org).

Lubetkin, managing partner of Professional Podcasts and Lubetkin Communications. “Leadership New Jersey has a clear vision for how to use podcasting as a business application, allowing busy and time-constrained listeners to get the information they need -- at a time when they want it.”
