Welcome to Volume 3, Issue 1 of PRism. We aim to provide public relations and communication researchers and practitioners with high standard, refereed online reference materials, and furnish new academic writers with a refereed outlet to encourage development of top quality scholarly work. This issue provides a diverse blend of writing on topics both practical and theoretical, from writers with both long-held experience and fresh insights. Enjoy!
PS You'll note that, as we plan two issues this year instead of our usual single annual issue, we have now adopted a standard volume/issue numbering system.
