What is the aim or goal of your writing:
As city editor of Detroit Free Press, he helped direct the coverage of the Detroit race riots, which won a Pulizer Prize in 1968, and the reports on the shootings of students at Kent State University in Ohio in 1970, which won the paper a George Polk award. By the time he retired, the paper was embroiled in a 19-month labor strike that put Mr. Shine on the opposite side of the picket line from some of his closest colleagues and friends.
