-------- Original Message -------- Subject: SPJ-L closes down Date: Mon, 24 May 2004 16:16:33 -0500 From: Jules Siegel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Declan McCullagh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
[Declan, this is a rather important event, and one that I personally find ugly. If you send out a note on it (and I think you should), I will appreciate your mentioning newsroom-l --Jules Siegel]
As you will see from the following message, SPJ-L has suspended service and will presumably be reconstituted as a moderated list. A truly historic open email discussion list for journalists is now gone.
Those who wish to continue the original tradition of SPJ-l are invited to join Newsroom-l, news and issues for journalists, which I formed almost three years ago during one of the periodic censorship purges that have plagued SPJ-L since Monicagate.
Devoted to free and ample discussion of news and issues, Newsroom-L is a forum for professional journalists, but anyone interested in current events and how they are covered in the media is welcome to join.
Although free discussion is encouraged, and the concept of what is on-topic is interpreted in the broadest sense possible, people will be bounced for non-humorous personal insults, posting copyrighted material without permission, and being outrageously annoying in ways that need not be defined but will be recognized when they occur.
One warning, then posting rights are suspended for one week. The next infraction results in being no-posted entirely for one month. After that One-Eyed Louie comes to your house and explains things to you in a way that you are not likely to forget in several lifetimes.
Since the list started in 2001, two subscribers have been removed permanently, two others have been suspended for seven days each, and one for thirty days.
Within those limits, Newsroom-L aims at providing a non-moderated space in which journalists can not only exchange professional information and ideas, but also get to know each other (and their readers) and, perhaps, develop a true sense of community.
Subscribe to Newsroom-L through your browser by clicking <http://lists.netspace.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=newsroom-l&A=1>. You can also send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the subject line, write "Subscribe." In the body, put your email address and your first name and last name.

Dear SPJ-L subscribers:
First, thanks for all the contributions made throughout the many years SPJ-L has been available.
It is now the sentiment of the SPJ Board of directors that all lists bearing the name of SPJ be housed by SPJ and moderated. This is a time consuming endeavor.
So, until such a time as SPJ can reconstitute the list and ensure it is properly moderated, SPJ-L will be eliminated until a yet-to-be undetermined date.
Again, thanks for your contributions.
Best-
Mac McKerral SPJ President

www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis- directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
