Dear all, I think that we should focus on developing positions/critiques of our own so not too sure that Ed Richards ought to be our first invitee (plus his voice is pretty well heard). A session looking at lessons from the Lords Committee's report on 'Media ownership and the news' with contributions by Steve, one of the eminent participants as well as someone from the industry would be interesting and useful. It would be able to focus not simply on the substantive issues involved but also questions concerning the process - impact, effectiveness, etc. Steve?? best Des > Great ideas > > > Plenary - well, Ed Richards, CEO should perhaps be our first invitee. > > > Stewart Purvis would be excellent - perhaps focus on news/citizen > media/future directions > > With a different focus, James Thickett could talk about Ofcom's research > agenda and approach to research > > > Policy panel - do we know what the key open consultations will be then? > Perhaps something looking ahead to a new Comms Act? > > > best, Sonia > > Sonia Livingstone > > > Professor, Department of Media and Communications > Project Director, EUKidsOnline, www.eukidsonline.net > <http://www.eukidsonline.net/> > > > > Address: LSE, Houghton Street, London WC2A 2AE, UK > Home page: > [log in to unmask] > <http:[log in to unmask]> > > > Upcoming LSE conference: > http:[log in to unmask] > <http:[log in to unmask]> > New book: The International Handbook of Children, Media and Culture > (edited with Kirsten Drotner, Sage, 2008). > > > ________________________________ > > > From: Media, Communications & Cultural Studies Association (MeCCSA) - > Policy Network on behalf of M Messenger Davies > Sent: Wed 25/06/2008 12:29 > To: [log in to unmask] > Subject: Fw: MeCCSA Conference 2009- Call For Papers > > > > > Dear all - it was suggested at the last meccsa exec, when conference > planning was discussed, that there should be another policy panel at the > Bradford conference in Jan, last year's being so successful.
