Source: The Media Awareness Project of DrugSense Pubdate: Sun, 10 Jan 1999 NEW MAP/DRUGSENSE MAILING LIST STARTS Today, with a question from newshawk Steve Young, the latest MAP/DrugSense mailing list was launched. Designed as a list to allow newshawks and those who would like to learn about newshawking techniques and issues, the list has a sign up form at the bottom of the page at: http://www.mapinc.org/hawk.htm The idea of our January Newshawk of the Month, Ken Russell, who is the list moderator, the list was first announced to the public last week in the DrugSense Weekly at: http://www.drugsense.org/dsw/1999/ds99.n80.html#4 Already a number of newshawks and those who are interested in learning about newshawking have signed on to the list, as well as a few members of the editing/posting team at MAP. Other MAP/DrugSense Mailing Lists The new list, called HAWKTALK, is one of dozens of MAP/DrugSense mailing lists. The primary discussion list for discussing news, media events, writing Letters to the Editor, and other topics of interest to activists is MAPTALK. The sign up form for MAPTALK is at: http://www.mapinc.org/lists/ MAP/ DrugSense also supports a number of other mailing lists, some of which may have special requirements to join. These include, but are not limited to, Drug Policy Forum lists for California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oregon Virginia, Vermont and Wisconsin; several November Coalition discussion lists and the University Drug Policy Forum.
