Op-Ed panel next week in NYC...

Point blank, women need to write more op-eds. So if you're in NYC, check it out!:

"Voicing Your Opinion"

Op-Ed pages are a powerful forum for public discourse, and a well-written piece can affect social change. But with limited page space, editors tend to favor the powers-that-be. Enter the Blogo-sphere and on-line citizen journalism, opening the field to a broader range of voices. Media opinion-makers explore the impact of this new phenomenon.
