14th JAMCO Online International Symposium
Japan Media Communication Center, Tokyo, Japan
Supplied note: "The Japan Media Communication Center (JAMCO) is conducting the 14th JAMCO Online International Symposium on the JAMCO's Website from November 1 through December 31, 2004.
Under the theme 'International Reporting by TV Media - Public Good and National Interest', the symposium takes a look at how the United Kingdom, Europe, the United States, Japan, and other advanced countries are using TV for international reporting, and discusses problems involved while considering issues of the national interest and the public good. Finally, it reexamines the role and responsibility of TV in a globalized world.
Five outstanding researchers and people actively engaged in some phase of TV reporting from the United Kingdom, the United States, and Japan will address that theme via online presentations, and we plan to invite discussants to offer observations, critiques, and questions. In addition to discussion by experts, we hope to increase participation by welcoming contributions from the online audience. Everyone with an opinion, comment, or question is invited to join in by responding through JAMCO's website. - yo."
