Jerome Merle Ceppos (October 14, 1946 – July 29, 2022) was an American journalist, news executive, and educator.
Ceppos was the former editor of San Jose Mercury News[1] and the Dean of the Manship School of Mass Communication at Louisiana State University.[2] Ceppos received positive recognition for his career in journalism but faced criticism for his failure to defend colleague Gary Webb following the publication of "Dark Alliance," a series of investigative reports linking the CIA and the Contras to the U.S. crack epidemic.[3][4]
