Year One - joint with American Studies

I noticed via Margot Huysman's blog (year one) that the American Studies degree is starting to teach using blogs in a similar way to journalism. This is great news because the theory side of the journalism course and the American studies course have a lot of overlap. So that is great. We lost contact with Margo's Blog for a while. It is here Margot Huysman. It is a very good blog, and links journalism history to American history which is a very good thing since - we shall assert - journalism is a mainly (not entirely) American thing - especially when you consider WR Hearst etc in the 20th century, and Mr Murdoch right now. Go contact the American Studies people and invite 'em to the blog party.
