Forum Responses, 9/28/12:

“What an impressive lineup of fascinating people talking about the media! Congrats! It looked like everyone was having a wonderful time and that there was a great exchange of ideas and opinions! AND totally upbeat, all with great mutual respect!  Just wonderful.” – Maggie Rose (attendee)

“The structure worked out wonderfully — left everybody breathless and wanting more. Many, many thanks” — Gregg Lange (attendee; NJAN advisory board)

“I so enjoyed the occasion, found everyone’s thoughts so stimulating, and absolutely loved the tight ship you ran that kept us moving and kept the conversation widening all the time.” — Dr. Sharon Ann Holt, NJ Council for the Humanities (panelist)

“So enjoyed last night! The state of “journalism” is in such flux it was very valuable for me to learn about those who had experienced the change from “print” to the various assorted new media.   I totally agree that one way to get people to think more about community and citizenship is to get them together” –  Janice Ballou (attendee)
