PABJ's Media Watch Committee’s first seminar “Blacks and Communications Law: What You Need to Know” is scheduled for 11 a.m., Saturday, July 12 in the African-American Studies Department of Temple University's Gladfelter Hall in the 8th Floor bubble room.
Acclaimed journalist and Temple professor Linn Washington is scheduled to be the instructor for the day. This is an open refresher course on Communications Law for all African-American journalists, public relations employees and others seeking enlightenment as well.
PABJ Media Watch Seminars were created as a professional development tool for African-American media employees in their everyday responsibilites at work and to help excercise those critical thinking skills journalists need to use in various settings at their respective jobs.
