The Journalism List
(version 2.6, September 20, 1993)

This document identifies and describes briefly a number of resources
targeted to the journalism community. The resources include newsgroups,
mailing lists/discussion groups, and information accessible via
wais/swais, anonymous ftp, telnet, gopher, and www. I included sites which
cater to journalists, for example, NASA's SpaceLink, where you can ftp
press kits.

The current version of The Journalism List is available via database
searching in the CARR-L notebook archives and via gopher through the
Clearinghouse for Subject-Oriented Internet Resource Guides at the
University of Michigan. Point your gopher to una.hh.lib.umich.edu. The
path is inetdirs/Journalism; J. Makulowich... . Corrections, additions,
recommendations and questions are welcome. (Special thanks to Elliott
Parker for his help in distributing this list.) Please do not cross-post
to the carr-l and journet discussion groups or the nit mailing list.

[Note: Here is information on how to subscribe to mailing lists and
discussion groups. For discussion groups using revised listserv (Eric
Thomas, 1.7f), send e-mail to listserv@domain and in the text, type sub
