The Section made a brief appearance in the Dec issue of the Journal of Communications in an article by Pooley and Katz (last paragraph). "Further Notes on Why American Sociology Abandoned Mass Communication Research" http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/121588366/abstract -Keith

This is great PR. With all due respect though, the journal is the Journal of Communication, no "s." Some of my colleagues in the field are very picky about this. Communications connotes the professional, applied side of our field whereas many departments emphasizing their research on human interaction and media now often adopt "communication" for their names or descriptions.
