cja III now taking apps
The third installation of the Citizens Journalism Academy, a joint venture of the KU School of Journalism and the World Company (which owns among other things the Lawrence Journal-World, Lawrence.com, and Sunflower Broadband), is now taking applications for its meetings in October. Its intent is to expose average citizens to the many ways in which news is selected and reported.
I was a part of the first installment (although due to time constraints and other things I haven’t had a lot to do with it since), and Paul was part of the second — let me tell you that if you live in the Lawrence area, it is worth your time. I remain deeply cynical about the media industries, but it showed me that there is good to be had out there if you want it. I hope bloggers will be represented in the third edition.
