Rebecca MacKinnon   9/04/07 I don’t have words to describe what a great and much-needed resource this is. I’m a recent college graduate with a Broadcast Journalism degree and worked at a local affiliate. I plan to share this with all of my old professors and colleagues. Thanks for helping all of us to navigate the digital world.
