Waite also was interviewed by several news organizations about the Federal Aviation Administration's proposed regulations for commercial drone activity and their implications for the package-delivery plans of Amazon and Google.

China Daily USA interviewed Joseph Weber, a journalism professor who has taught in China, about the decision by state-run China Central Television to provide Chinese New Year coverage free to international TV networks. The story appeared Feb. 10.
