Welcome to the talk page edit

This is a place where you can ask questions, talk about problems, and discuss the Wikipedia assignment with classmates and other Wikipedians.--Epistemophiliac (talk) 18:47, 8 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Can anyone explain why the localism issue in U.S. media industry is important? Is it important because it assures diverse voices and protection for media diversity? --Chotongfui (talk) 15:39, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Questions edit

I just realized that there was a "participation log for course participants" at the top of this page, but I don't really understand what it is. Do we have to login to that separately to have our work logged? Brandonbrooks1 (talk) 14:49, 16 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
