EDITORIAL: The Challenges

Abstract

Welcome to this edition of Pacific Journalism Review, which gives a taste of what was on offer at the recent Journalism Education Association of NZ (JEANZ) conference, hosted by Massey University's Department of Communication, Journalism and Marketing in Wellington on 10-12 December 2007. The theme of the conference was: 'The future for the mainstream- the changing demands on journalists and the challenge for journalism educators.' We asked a range of eminent speakers to give their views on the topic, including politicians, journalists, editors and legal experts. Our three keynote speakers' addresses are all contained in this volume.
