POLL

The latest poll - causes of world journalism in crisis :

http://groups.comminit.com/node/311857

Is the crisis coming from inside journalism - or from outside?

JICC speaks to clear positions, while enabling other points of view.  Our latest poll is public, so distribute link above via networks. 

Let's get this participation started!

MEMBERS

JICC now has more than 100 members!

Some 26 on JICC Facebook, and 105 on JICC at the DevNet Communications Initiative.

An encouraging start to a scorching hot topic across world journalism and news media arenas.

Debate surrounding world journalism in crisis strikes to the heart of planetary futures and development issues - about how much we as global citizens get told about our own affairs, finances and democratic participation.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Taking on something like a world crisis is daunting.

JICC is still very much in the early stages of building membership, and concerns behind this cause are not going away anytime soon.

For now, joining JICC on Facebook, or at DevNet is enough to attract attention and build interest.
