Beyond journals: A media workshop at NYU
“Beyond journals“—a media workshop held at NYU on January 26, 2010—gives a glimpse of academics on the brink. Six professors—Amodio, Heilman, Jost, Marcus, Pelli, Phelps—and a savvy publicist—Cerand—present diverse views of old and new media. I convened and reported the event.

Thus a total of 66,238 people received a tweet about our media workshop with a link to the report. [Is that a big number? The daily circulation of the New York Times is one million. Miller’s 1956 Psych Review article “The magic number 7±2”, one of the most highly cited articles in psychology, has been cited ten thousand times.]
Our workshop and the report were also mentioned in several blogs (thank you!), including the NYU Facebook page,
