POPSAmerica's first user-generated confession ""Eventually you have to leave people alone and let them deal with their grief." A banner was put up on campus, that read: "VT stay strong - media stay away." The scramble for coverage also threw up many questions about journalistic ethics, especially in the digital age."

POPSMalaysian Info Minister's hero: Harmoko Suharto's Information Minister Harmoko may not seem like any journalist's hero. But he has the type of talents that only another Information Minister, and one from a neighboring country, could love. It turns out that Malaysian Information Minister Zainudin Maidin admires Pos Kota and Harmoko for being light years ahead of everyone else in their vision of journalism. Difficult to believe? Truth is stranger than fiction and for a full-blown account of this tale of admiration go to the link below for a good read. It'll be only a matter of time before Pos Kota joins Rasa Sayang and the Angklung as coveted items by the northern neighbor.

POPS Citizen Jane (rhymes with Kane) Politics dot com
Really comprehensive resource for male voters, as well. Having worked on Capitol Hill for nine years, I can tell you it's because the guys speak up a lot more. They give their opinions. Instead of asking, "Why me?" before writing an op-ed or running for office, they say, "Why not me?" After I left politics, I went to Columbia University for a master's degree in journalism. I then worked as executive editor at a magazine for a year, but kept seeing a gap in political coverage that I wanted somebody to fill. I wanted to see something about politics that was not a cheering section for either party; something written for women that had more than just gossip and fashion; something that understood that the stakes for the next election could not be higher, but that focusing on just doom and gloom can get a girl down. But if you feel like you've just seen the tip of the political iceberg, here is where you can learn more about what lies beneath the surface of American politics

POPSCitizen Schools - citizen teachers In the summer of 1994 Boston was a city searching for answers to an exhausting downward spiral of youth crime, crumbling neighborhoods, and struggling public schools. Three opportunities awaited discovery: the long, empty hours of out-of-school time; the crucial transition of middle school in a child’s education; and the cumulative power of real-world professionals teaching their knowledge to kids, hands-on.

POPSNewAssignment: A New Way Toward Collaborative Journalism As he explains on his Pressthink blog today, Jay Rosen has taken his biggest step yet into the world he’s been writing about for some time now. With the help of several grants he’s starting NewAssignment.net, based on this notion: “Reporter + smart mob + editor with a fund and backers get the story the press pack wouldn’t, couldn’t or didn’t.” Needless to say (because I’ve been saying it repeatedly), I’m an enthusiast. I continue to believe that the people who could pull this off best are the traditional media, and that there will soon be some amazing examples. But the media business can’t do everything, and we need to see experiments of this sort.
