As a result of its efforts, since 2000 there have been hundreds of apologies, retractions, and revisions from news outlets. Mr. Kenzer has over 25 years experience in the non-profit industry. Prior to assuming his present position, he served for 9 years as the Executive Director of Magen David Adom USA (Israel's emergency medical health, blood and disaster services) and with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), both grassroots organizations in the US. He has a degree from Loyola University of Chicago.
