> Media Ethics 2000 Colloquium, founded by Brigham Young University, 
> is preparing for its 10thcolloquium, which will take place in April, 
> 2010, in St. Louis.  The 2010 colloquium, Who Can and Should Watch 
> the Watchdog in the Twitter Age?, provides a venue for mass media 
> scholarship examining a variety of accountability issues and tools 
> ranging from journalism reviews to news councils to ombudsmen to 
> public/civic journalism to media critics to ethics codes, etc.
>
> Colloquium submissions should be normative, focusing on ethics and 
> theory as opposed to media criticism or individual case studies.
>
> Potential colloquium fellows are invited to submit proposals of no 
> more than 1,000 words.  As many as nine team proposals will be 
> selected by the Colloquium Steering Committee.  Proposals can be 
> submitted either by an individual scholar or by a pair of 
> scholars.  Should a proposal submitted by an individual be accepted, 
> the colloquium steering committee will help determine another 
> appropriate scholar to work with the person submitting the 
> proposal.  In past colloquia, fellows pairings have embraced 
> diversity, including, for instance, having one scholar in a team 
> being more "seasoned" and the other scholar being new to media 
> ethics, or having one scholar being an academician with the other 
> contributor being from the media or another profession (law, for 
> example), having team members from two different disciplines, or 
> having a pair of individuals from different nations or cultures.
>
> The proposal deadline is Nov. 1, 2009.  Proposals should be 
> submitted electronically to William A. Babcock at 
> <(wbabcock49 /at/ gmail.htm)>(wbabcock49 /at/ gmail.com).  Acceptance notices will 
> be sent out in November.
>
> Final papers of no more than 8,000 words (including references and 
> footnotes) are due no later than March, 2010. The colloquium will 
> pay travel, room and board expenses for all fellows.  The Journal of 
> Mass Media Ethics will have the right of first refusal for all 
> presented colloquium papers, and upon publication each author will 
> receive a $500 honorarium.
>
> This year's Colloquium is co-sponsored by Southern Illinois 
> University Carbondale.
