1. EYES ON THE PRIZE
*** The 17th Journalists in Aging Fellows Program Has Tapped Reporters from such wide-ranging news media as Salon.com, Texas Public Radio, Inside Climate News and the New Orleans Times-Picayune for its “Class” of 2026-2027.
Among their proposed in-depth topics are: the cognitive consequences of solitary aging in America’s prisons; caregiving, ritual, and end of life issues in the nation’s fast-growing Jewish population; and the barriers to aging well in Puerto Rico, and how Medicare Advantage uses Predictive Software Is Cutting limit patient care. (See the full list below.)
Selected Fellows receive a $1,500 stipend, plus all expenses covered to attend the training at GSA’s 2026 Annual Scientific Meeting, at National Harbor, MD, Nov. 4-7, 2026. The New Fellows will bring the program’s total number of journalists to 272.
Since it started in 2010, Fellows have produced upwards of 950 stories in all types of media. Many have originated in non-English outlets serving U.S. audiences, from El Tiempo Latino to Sing Tao Daily, as well as in general-media outlets, such as the Washington Post, Science Magazine, NPR News, and numerous local news organizations.
The conference will bring about 4,500 professionals in gerontology from around the world, many of whom will present their research in hundreds of symposia, papers, and study posters on nearly every topic in aging. Topics will range from the latest biological discoveries to public policy panels on federal cuts, as well as how state and local services are coping with the new budget cuts.
The program also will soon announce its selection of five Continuing Fellows, past participants invited annually to return to the GSA meeting, in order to refresh their coverage of issues in aging.
Reporters not participating in the fellowship program also may request a complimentary media pass to cover the full conference, by contacting GSA’s Todd Kluss: email tkluss@geron.org.
The fellowship program is a collaboration between GSA and GBONews.org publisher, the Journalists Network on Generations. Currently supporting the program are grants from Silver Century Foundation, The Commonwealth Fund, The John A. Hartford Foundation, and National Institute for Health Care Management Foundation (NIHCM), as well as a donation from gerontologist John Migliaccio, PhD.

CT Mirro also won in 2023 for their four-part series “Connecticut’s Elder Care Reckoning.”
2. GOOD SOURCES
*** “A New Era for Obesity Care in Medicare: What the GLP-1 Bridge Means for Older Adults,” is a YouTube of the latest Journalists in Aging Fellows Program web briefing, recorded on Sept. 1, 2026. The 1-hour recording addresses issues regarding
The newly approved availability of insurance coverage for certain obesity management medications to Medicare’s beneficiaries living with obesity. The coverage is through a new program called Medicare GLP-1 Bridge. Expert speakers discussed who may be eligible, what reporters should know about implementation, and why obesity management medications prescribed for older adults must be paired with comprehensive, person-centered care that supports strength, mobility, function, and quality of life.
The briefing revealed the bureaucratic complications of the temporary GLP-Bridge program and the longer-term BALANCE program, which won’t kick in until April 2028. The also discuss why measures of “weight” and “BMI” (body mass index) should be replaced by functional assessments to help people improve their health and capabilities effectively and without stigma.
Expert panelists were John A. Batsis, MD, FACP, AGSF, FTOS, FGSA, associate professor, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Division of Geriatric Medicine; Gillings School of Global Public Health, Nutrition; and Christine (Cristy) Gallagher, MPAff — Coordinator, Obesity Care Advocacy Network; Associate Director, Research & Policy, STOP Obesity Alliance, Milken Institute School of Public Health, George Washington University. Moderating was Jennifer Pettis, MS, RN, Director of Strategic Alliances, Gerontological Society of America.
The webinar was presented by the Journalists Aging in Fellowships, a collaboration between GSA and GBONews.org publisher, the Journalists Network on Generations.
Additionally, GSA will soon hold its “Summit to Demonstrate How Improved Communication About Aging Is Leading to Better Outcomes for All Americans.” This event will be livestreamed on Wed., September 16, from the National Press Club in Washington, DC. We have some spaces held for reporters to attend in-person. If you’re in DC and would like to join us, let GSA’s Todd Kluss know: tkluss@geron.org.
3. FED NEWS NOTE
*** Mary M. Lazare Nominated Assistant Secretary for Aging in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Administration for Community Living (ACL). Lazare, who holds master’s degrees in both management and gerontology, has been well regarded in the field of aging, although not without controversy. She served from 2017-2021, as the Acting ACL Administrator and Acting Assistant Secretary for Aging.
She returned in 2025 as acting Principal Deputy Administrator. With her Aug. 7 nomination by President Donald Trump, she will be considered first by the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, before facing a full Senate confirmation vote.
Of particular interest for reporters is whether committee members query Lazare on the huge number of cuts–as Stat News reported, almost half of ACL’s 200-member staff—in March 2025. The firings and layoffs were dictated by Elon Musk’s DOGE, which was falsely named “Department” of Government Efficiency, since only Congress can establish a presidential department.
Also at that time, the bipartisan Urban Institute posted “Sweeping HHS Cuts Will Put Disabled and Older Americans’ Right to Live in Their Communities at Risk,” by veteran policy analyst Susan J. Popkin and colleagues.
Also, for background, this summer the journal Health Affairs’ published a length policy overview titled, “The America’s Infrastructure To Support Older Adults Is In Limbo,” by analyst Alison Barkoff, JD, who headed ACL in the Biden administration and now directs the Hirsh Health Law and Policy Program at George Washington University.
Early in 2026, Lazare submitted her “FY 2027 Congressional Justification for the Aging and Disabilities Services Programs,” as part of the agency’s detailed budget report to Congress. Meanwhile, reporters may want to follow the fate of the Older Americans Act (OAA), which created the U.S. Administration on Aging. Its required reauthorization was passed by the Senate this summer, after long delays, but now must be passed by the House. There is lots for reporters to delve into there in discerning questions they may direct to Lazare.
Furthermore, gen-beat and health reporters may listen for whether a past controversy resurfaces in Lazare’s congressional hearings. According to the independent news organization, the informative Disability Scoop, in 2018, Lazare publicly apologized for comments she made during two speeches, one to the Autistic Society, which prompted letters from four federal lawmakers.
They wrote HHS asking whether the agency remains committed to its stated mission that “all Americans — including people with disabilities and older adults — should be able to live at home with the supports they need, participating in communities that value their contributions.”
Disability Scoop’s story said Lazare had called the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1990 landmark Olmstead v. L.C. decision—written by Justice Sandra Day O’Connor– into question.
The court’s ruling affirmed the right of people with disabilities to access community-based living, but Lazare reportedly said it was a matter of “choice.” The firestorm caused her to backpedal her statements suggesting she prefers segregated and institutional settings.
“In addition,” noted the Disability Scoopstory, “Lazare reportedly said she believed that a federal Medicaid rule outlining what types of settings qualify as community-based should be revisited.”
At the time, Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill, a war veteran and amputee, wrote in part, “As reported, your remarks were disturbing, create distrust and raise serious questions concerning your ability to effectively serve in your current position.”
The High Court’s Olmstead decision has enabled countless people with disabilities to live freely in their communities, instead of institutions, with necessary assistance covered by the government.
*** “How to avoid a Social Security cut? Lawmakers are floating ideas for what to do,” by Kevin Freking, Associated Press, Aug. 26, 2026:
The Lede: “With the few months they have left as senators, Democrat Dick Durbin and Republican Bill Cassidy have embarked on a mission to save tens of millions of Social Security beneficiaries from a projected 22% cut in their benefits, starting in just six years. . . . Their idea to extend Social Security’s solvency is one of a few that have been formally offered this Congress. None has gained much traction, but . . . . Pressure for action is sure to grow as 2032 draws closer.”
Their Bill: “The measure . . . would not dictate an outcome but instead . . . calls for the bipartisan Social Security Advisory Board to collect public input and submit draft legislation to Congress that would keep the program’s retirement trust fund solvent for at least 50 years. The resulting bill would then be introduced by the majority leaders of the Senate and House. If they do not want to go along, any member could sponsor the bill. It would then be referred to the two committees with jurisdiction over Social Security — the Senate Finance Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee.
Both committees would have the chance to debate the bill and amend it if they wish. If not, the original bill drafted by the advisory board would be placed on the Senate and House calendars for consideration. Lawmakers could offer substitute proposals . . . .”
But Wait: “AARP has come out against the bill, saying that the effort amounts to ‘fast-tracking’ Social Security changes through a process that limits what type of amendments are offered and sets arbitrary procedural deadlines.
Other Takes: “Separately, Cassidy has a proposal with Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., that calls for the creation of a $1.5 trillion fund that would be invested in stocks and other higher-risk assets over 75 years. The seed money would be financed by the Treasury Department through additional borrowing. . . . ‘The advantage of the ‘Save Our Seniors Fund’ is that it lessens your political battle,’ Cassidy said.
Debt watchdogs are worried. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget said ,”This is a dangerous, debt-funded gamble that would come with huge risks and costs.”
Elsewhere: “Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, do not agree on much, but they have joined forces in calling for lifting the cap on the Social Security payroll tax.
Currently, the payroll tax that funds Social Security applies to a maximum of $184,500 in income. That means most people pay Social Security taxes on all of their income, but the wealthier do not. ‘Why should a middle-class nurse pay a larger share of her paycheck than a wealthy corporate lawyer?’ the two senators wrote in The New York Times.”
“Others have called for lifting the cap, but only above a certain income threshold. For example, a bill from Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., and Rep. Brendan Boyle, D-Pa., would apply the payroll tax to income above $400,000. The bill would require those making more than $400,000 to contribute more to Medicare.”
Progressives in the House and Senate have sponsored a bill that would lift the payroll tax cap to cover all earnings above $250,000, including capital gains and dividends, and increase the tax that high earners must pay on investment gains. The bill would boost payments to Social Security beneficiaries by roughly $2,400 a year and increase the annual cost-of-living adjustment.
This effort is being led by Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent, and Rep. Val Hoyle,D-Ore. The House version has 39 cosponsors, all Democrats.”
A Quote: “In a recent letter to colleagues, Sanders said expanding benefits and requiring the wealthiest in the United States to pay the same percentage of their income into Social Security as tens of millions of working people is “how we extend Social Security’s solvency for generations to come.”
4. GEN BEATLES NEWS
*** Anjana Nagarajan-Butaney took First Place in the 2026 California Journalism Awards (CJA), of the California News Publishers Association, in the “Columns” category, for India Currents magazine. She wrote her article, “Beyond The Hot Flash! What Every Woman Should Know About Menopause & Hormone Therapy,” support by a Journalists in Aging Fellowship from The Gerontological Society of America, GBONews publisher, the Journalists Network on Generations, and The NIHCM Foundation. Also cited by the CJA awards panel was her column, “Bay Area High Schoolers Struggle A Lot,’ Say South Asian Students About The Gen Z Mental Health Crisis.”
*** Veteran Journalist Clara Germani, Investigative Volunteer: A former stalwart of the Christian Science Monitor (CSM) and a past Journalists in Aging Fellow, Germani “unretired” recently to pitch in with her considerable editorial expertise at the Marion County Record in Kansas.
GBONews readers may recall that in August 2023, the Record, one of the oldest weeklies in the country, made national news as the target of a brazen and illegal raid by local law enforcement on the newsroom and staffers’ homes, including that of part owner of The Record, Joan Meyer, age 98, who died of heart failure the next day.
Adjudications later determined that the local police chief had a personal stake in blocking the newspaper’s investigation of a corrupt entanglement in town. (Click the above Wikipedia link for the whole sorry tale.)
The Record’s editor, Joan’s son, Eric Meyer, also a distinguished journalism professor at the University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign, is hoping to keep the family-owned paper going in the aftermath. Multiple lawsuits endued, with two reporters, traumatized by the raid and subsequent actions by the police, each received six-figure settlements. And Eric Meyer settled with the county for $3 million, while pursuing additional suits.
Meyer, who receives no salary for running the news outlet, hopes to keep the 152-year-old paper going long enough for younger journalists to take the historic helm—a heady goal when local news has become so diminished nationwide.
After departing the CSM after 16 years, Germani answered Meyer’s call for new reporters, “jobs to be funded by his hefty lawsuit settlement with the county,” to come spend a year or two cutting their reporting teeth here.”
She noted on LinkedIn, “The last young reporter Eric trained up just got a job at The New Republic. Meanwhile, he needs help keeping things together–so I signed up for a few months.” In an email to GBONews, she added, “Do you know any young journalists unafraid of the basics of smalltown life, reporting, and living? Do you know any retirees who wanna come and help out? It feels valuable and fun.”

*** Liz Seegert, posted, “How cool is this? Apparently a story I wrote in 2024 for Harvard Public Health magazine was cited by Brian Dempsey, Director of Government Affairs for the Wounded Warrior Project as part of testimony he gavein 2025 to the U.S. Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs.”
She added, “I can now officially be known as “footnote number 9.” For the record, it reads, with a story link, “Liz Seegert, Could Worker Cooperatives be a Fix for the Home Care Worker Shortage, HARVARD PUBLIC HEALTH (Oct. 16, 2024), https://harvardpublichealth.org/policy-practice/us-direct-care-worker-demand-outstrips-supply-can-co-ops-help/.”
**** Caitlin Hawke Retires from Columbia U’s Aging Center/Age Boom Fellowship Program: After a dozen yearsas Associate Director of Programming at the Robert N. Butler Columbia Aging Center, most of that time serving as senior project lead running the Age Boom Academy fellowship program for journalists, Hawke posted to friends and colleagues that she’s already strutting her next steps to “my favorite song, ‘My Back Pages.’” It’s the tune in which Bob Dylan sang, “Ah but I was so much older then / I’m younger than that now.”
The groundbreaking Age Boom journalism fellowship program trained hundreds of reporters to cover issues in aging from 2000 to 2023, and it may restart in the coming year or so.
The program grew out of Dr. Robert N. Butler’s now-defunct International Longevity Center (ILC). Butler, the leading proponent of medical education of physicians and the person who coined the term “ageism,” also loved journalism and had served as the editor of Columbia’s student newspaper, The Spectator during his senior year (1947-48).
Following Butler’s 2010 death, the university absorbed ILC’s programs, including the Age Boom fellowships. Arriving soon thereafter and applied her considerable skill in organizing public health programs and running projects for a biological research institutions to the cat-herding required in recruiting and managing journalists in disparate media around the country.
The Age Boom program has operated as a partnership between the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism. In a telephone exit interview with GBONews.org, Hawke said she hopes the Age Boom program will start again under the new administrator, but that will have to evolve on its own.
Meanwhile, in beginning her new unretired phase, “Right now it’s like a playground, which is what I want. I’m following my nose.” She’s in her final year of working toward a master’s degree in oral history at Columbia’s sociology institute and expects to graduate next May. (She’s noticed “that a lot of journalists are coming in. Journalists are interested in the interviewing methodology of oral history.”)
Hawke and her husband, who retired two years ago, are repairing to Massachusetts where “we have a place in Martha’s Vineyard, MA, to recharge before traipsing back to Columbia’s Morningside campus as a grad student, to that nasally ear worm of Bob Dylan.
“A great sage of our times,” she said, “he recently observed about aging that when you’re young you think that time moves forward. But as you age you realize it doesn’t, it stands still. We’re the ones that move.”
*** Ellen Eldridge had to scroll email for her new MFA diploma instead of receiving an actual scroll. The University of Georgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication sent her the document as a PDF, at least initially. Eldridge allowed though in her social media post that she’s “fairly certain I will receive a mailed copy, too.”
Eldridge, the Senior Healthcare Reporter at Georgia Public Broadcasting, earned the master’s in narrative nonfiction, but receiving her diploma by email has to qualify under the heading, “You Couldn’t Make This Up.” Nonetheless, she posted on LinkedIn, “My love of storytelling, finding facts and public service keep me grateful for the career I have built.”
5. WORDS (AND IMAGES) OF THE WISE
*** At 99, his speech may be faulty, but not much else: The PBS NewsHour’s Jeffrey Brown visited artist Alex Katz, “an American great,” at his home in Maine for this broadcast Sept. 2, 2026. The occasion for Brown’s engaging interview is that the artist’s work is soon to be featured at the Matisse Museum in Nice, France, in a dual exhibition titled “Henri Matisse-Alex Katz.”
Katz, expressed his surprise on finding his work paired with one of the signature artists of the 20th century. He told Brown that in 400 years of European and American art, Matisse was “the best technical painter, period.” With a chuckle, he added, “I’ll put my paintings up there—and see if they’re any good.”
Brown, in his introduction, contrasted Katz’s prior landscapes and canvases of people, sometimes in crowded scenes, always full of energy despite his distinctively flat brush strokes, with the painter’s latest work of austere, contemplative abstractions. Brown commented about the new paintings—and artist–“At age 99, as we saw in his studio recently the movement has certainly slowed, but the art, mind and magic continue.”
