* The Online News Association has launched a new Students & Educators
subcommittee of the Membership Services committee to help develop new ways
for ONA to better serve students and educators. Some of the possible ideas
being discussed are internships, a mentoring program, listserv
discussions, regional events and sharing online news research. More on the
new committee here: http://journalist.org/news/archives/000247.php
* Editor and Publisher reported May 10th, 2005 that "Newspaper circulation
is trending down, but a new study released today by the Newspaper
Association of America shows a 3.1% increase in the number of people who
read newspapers online." You can read more about this new study here:
