.@PressClubCle presented a @TheCityClub program this week featuring Cleveland Mayor @JustinMBibb and moderated by WKYC’s Managing Editor and Anchor, @RussWKYC. The conversation was on data centers, journalism and government, the lakefront and future of Burke Lakefront Airport.
We are so sad to share this news about Bob Tayek. Bob will be greatly missed. He was the most recent recipient of our Chuck Heaton Award and a local broadcasting and communications legend. Our sincere condolences are with Bob’s friends, family and colleagues at this time.
It is with great sadness we share the news that our longtime public address announcer, Bob Tayek, has passed away today. For nearly three decades, Bob was the voice of Progressive Field, welcoming generations of fans to Cleveland baseball with warmth, professionalism and a presence that became part of the ballpark experience.
Please keep Bob’s family, friends and all who worked alongside him in your thoughts during this difficult time.

Multiple media outlets turned in their credentials rather than accept a pledge that directly undermines the First Amendment protections for free speech that we all enjoy. A free, independent press is essential to democracy. At moments like this, we must meet the test. (3 of 3)
We, at The Press Club of Cleveland, stand in solidarity with our colleagues in the Pentagon press corps, who made a principled choice when faced with new rules that say reporters cannot obtain information the Defense Department does not authorize.(1 of 3) https://t.co/CfFdaNR7C1
The essence of news reporting is to gather information fairly and accurately without fear or favor to benefit and inform the public, and the new rules make that reporting a criminal act. (2 of 3)
