William M. Landau, president of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, announced today that Sam Lipski will be the Australian correspondent for the JTA with a bureau office in Melbourne. This step, Landau said, is part of the on-going effort by the JTA to expand and intensify its world-wide coverage of Jewish developments and to provide vital information to all Jewish communities.
Lipski, who wrote a regular column from Washington for the JTA in 1970, is the director of Australia/Israel Publications and editor of Mid-East Review. He writes for the Australian Jewish press and contributes a column on international affairs to The Australian, the country’s national newspaper. During 1969-1973 he was Washington correspondent for the Australian and the Jerusalem Post and contributed articles to the New Leader, Washington Post, the Boston Globe, Atlas Magazine and the National Jewish Monthly.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
