Dear Colleagues -- If you use my "model" letter to work with Diana on
the Ethnic Newspapers project --- please remember to correct the
spelling out of the AEJMC title.  I left out the E&J parts!  Please
forgive me as I try to get some things done when I am too tired and
rushed to do them well!!

get
