Currently, I am coming to the end of a four-month tour of Australia and New Zealand, giving talk on citizen journalism. I focus mainly on the role of the broadcaster and the interests that governments have in citizen journalism and its future. I argue that the least knowledgeable group when it comes to the power and future of this growing news source is that of the citizen journalists (ie. the citizens). I am giving my talk in Brisbane at the Square Library on Saturday 21st Jan 2012 at 1:30pm. You may be interested in attending. You can find out more about me and my talks from my website. http://GariSullivan.co.uk Gari Sullivan Hi Terry,

This is such a hot topic over here in the UK at the moment. My name is Chris Calland, I am an education consultant - myself and a colleague, Nicky Hutchinson, have been calling for schools to address this issue at a much younger age and have written a book, 'Body image in the Primary School' - It's the first comprehensive, age appropriate curriculum for teachers to use with their pupils from the age of 6. It supports children to develop a healthy body image as well as encouraging them to question the media images that they are bombarded with through the internet, TV, magazines etc... Of course parents have a key role to play and the book includes ways to involve parents and carers plus some guidance for them to support at home. Since publication in March this year we have had a lot of media interest and teachers who are using it are very positive - we think schools in Australia may find it useful too Interesting presentation.

I would say so. Journalism is a very vague term, to be honest. But anyway, one of the main things about Journalism in general is - capture the interest of readers (or viewers) till the end of Article (or whatever kind of Journalistic content it is). Do you think that requires creativity? You bet it does. Is Journalism a creative art? I would say so. Journalism is a very vague term, to be honest.
