Douglas Walker has covered the criminal justice system in East Central Indiana for most of the past three decades. For more than a quarter century, he has served in reporting and editing roles for the Star Press and its predecessor, the Muncie Evening Press. Walker has earned dozens of state, regional and national journalism awards--many the result of his collaborations with Keith Roysdon, with whom he co-writes a weekly column on Muncie politics. The Ball State University graduate is an eighth-generation resident of the Muncie area. Keith Roysdon is a reporter at the Star Press in Muncie, Indiana, where he is the paper's watchdog reporter, covering not only the normal functions of government but also the abnormal--when things go wrong, money is misspent or elected officials misbehave. Roysdon has won more than two dozen awards in Indiana newspaper contests. In addition to many awards for their work together, he and Douglas Walker won the Kent Cooper Award for Story of the Year in Indiana for their 2010 Cold Case story on Muncie's most notorious unsolved murders. Roysdon marked his fortieth anniversary in journalism in 2017.
