Reporters and editors across the globe turn to one source to resolve grammar and punctuation disputes.

Delayed from 11 Sep.

Complete an online peer review before class. (Details to follow.)

Update, 11 Sep: 

Since some of the peer interviews came in late, I haven't yet had the chance to respond to everyone's.  So, rather than stating that everyone should be finished on this date, I'll just ask that you keep in mind the value of revising. 

I expect that everyone will benefit from the AP style materials, so that we'll get better final revisions if I extend the peer-review process a bit more.

So, this is less a "final due date" than a reminder that this is ongoing work that I hope you'll keep in mind.  I'm more interested that you are learning and practicing right now, than that you are meeting any specific deadlines with regard to these early assignments.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Add final revisions to Google Docs submission by 9am tomorrow.

During the quiz, I was tweaking the copy of the text I had prepared.  It turns out that, when I shut down the podium, I didn't save a copy of the revised text.

I did record the press conference, however, so here is the MP3.
