LATELY IN EDITOR & PUBLISHER. Editor & Publisher has chosen its 2005 Photos of the Year. Take some time to browse through the winners and runners-up. Many of the photos are grim and sad, but there is some good cute, too, such as the Marc Vasconcellos image of Massachusetts pooches in a school bus. See if you can sniff it out!

In a thankfully unrelated story, it turns out that in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, one punishment for unlawful public urination involves writing Letters to the Editor. There's no mention of how the letters department and the readers feel about that.
