Hi MACers:

I suggest that members of panels we sponsored get together and co-write articles regarding those presentations for submission to this JMCQ editor’s call that our Great Leader Emmanuel set to us.

 

In fact I am asking all the members of the “Madre/Mothers” panel from San Antonio (Meta, Diana, Joy, MC THIS MEANS YOU!) to write up their presentations and citations in the perspective of THEORY BUILDING using JMCQ style and send it to me for a co-authored submission.  Please get it to me by JANUARY 30, 2006. 

 

Thanks in advance.  Happy Holidays to all.

Dear Emmanuel,

 

One of the things I've been trying to do is get the message to AEJMC

members that Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly has "relaxed" its

word-length requirement for submissions not using tables or appendices, and

is seeking increased submission of theory-building work.

 

I wrote a piece explaining this change that appeared as the editorial note

in Quarterly earlier this year, and it also ran as a column in the AEJMC

News.   The same information on word length is now included in our

"Instructions to Contributors" published in every issue.

 

Yet when I mentioned this to members in San Antonio, several admitted they

had seen neither! So much for me getting the word out.

 

In fact, one colleague suggested that I see if divisional and interest

group Web sites and listserves might post the column.

 

Is this within the realm of possibility for your listserve or Web site?

It's 565 words long.

 

If this is not do-able or appropriate for what you do on your sites, please

don't hesitate to say so.

 

Best,

 

Daniel Riffe, Editor

Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly
