Rick Saleeby
Journalist, Writer, and Broadcaster in New York
Hello, I’m Rick Saleeby, a committed journalist and broadcaster based in the vibrant city of New York. My journey into journalism was fueled by a deep passion for sports and storytelling, which led me to pursue a degree in Journalism right here in the city that never sleeps.
Starting my career as a sports reporter, I covered everything from local games to national championships, which honed my ability to capture the essence of every story. My work soon transitioned into broadcasting, where I have had the privilege of creating feature segments on everything from emerging athletes to major sporting events. This role has not only broadened my audience but also deepened my understanding of the sports world.
As my career progressed, I became increasingly aware of the challenges and responsibilities that come with digital media, particularly the issue of misinformation. This awareness shifted my focus towards promoting ethical journalism. I believe in rigorous fact-checking, transparency, and maintaining integrity in all my reporting endeavors. I have been recognized for these efforts with an Excellence in Journalism Award, which underscores my commitment to these principles.
My legacy, I hope, is to inspire a new generation of journalists to uphold these standards. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active through various sports and contributing to community initiatives that promote media literacy among youth.
In a world buzzing with constant information, I stand for truth and ethical journalism, striving to ensure that the integrity of the news remains unblemished.
