Laura Roselle, professor of political science, recently attended a conference on Media, War, and Conflict at Marquette University in Milwaukee. She chaired a session and presented a paper, “Media and the Politics of Failure.” The conference served to celebrate the launch of a new scholarly journal, Media, War, and Conflict. Dr. Roselle is an editorial board member. The first edition of the new journal will be published by Sage in April 2008.
