U.S. Editor to Trade Places With a Russian
- Share via
TRENTON, N.J. — The managing editor of a Trenton newspaper will work for a Moscow paper and a Soviet journalist will work in Trenton under a two-month exchange.
The exchange, an idea that the Trenton Times has pursued for two years, is among the first between the United States and the Soviet Union to involve journalists, publisher Richard Bilotti said Monday.
Recently, Soviet journalist Yegor Yakovlev of the weekly Moscow News and a reporter for the daily Idahonian of Moscow, Ida., swapped places for a week.
In the Trenton-Moscow exchange, Managing Editor Edward J. Baumeister Jr. will spend about a month working for the Moscow News after a Soviet journalist has spent a month in Trenton.
