About Parachute Insight

  • Parachute Insight will work with public relations firms and consultants whose clients want to prevent or repair an adversarial relationship with the media. It's based on the premise that people under journalistic scrutiny rarely act in their best interest when they don't understand the press. Too often, they assume the relationship will be and should be hostile. It's uniquely qualified to provide:
  • Honest appraisal: Dropping into a situation from the outside, Parachute Insight will offer its observations and advice without the potential bias or inhibition that insiders may offer
  • Interview preparation, anticipating the Q & A, including role play and narrative organization
  • Credibility enhancement, creating an inventory of documents, data and anecdotes and third-party confirmation to support assertions in controversy
  • News release preparation and counseling
  • Strategic communications

Bio

Henry Goldman, founder and principal of Parachute Insight LLC, comes to the company after decades at the highest echelons of journalism. A 22-year veteran of Bloomberg News, his first assignment was as a magazine feature writer. In 2000, he was tapped to start its City Hall bureau. He's perhaps best known for his even-handed coverage of Michael Bloomberg's 12-year mayoralty. The New York Times described him as ``a reporter's reporter.'' Goldman's experience includes a 17-year stint reporting and editing at the Philadelphia Inquirer including three years as its national correspondent in New York. Prior to that, he was an investigative reporter for six years at The Record in northern New Jersey. He's currently teaching a course in News Ethics and Values at Fordham University. A graduate of Amherst College in Massachusetts, Goldman holds a law degree from the University of San Francisco, and is a member of the California Bar. He's also a past University of Michigan Knight-Wallace Journalism Fellow.
