Knowledge is Power!

Welcome to your electronic resource in global communication.  This comprehensive web site has been specifically designed to keep students, instructors, researchers, and interested individuals abreast of the ever-changing developments in the field of global communication and mass media.  The Global Media Monitor serves as a clearinghouse for numerous issues related to global communication and media.  Included in this web site are profiles of prominent global media scholars and professionals.  You will find links to hundreds of online newspapers, journals, international online radio and television stations, international news agencies and services, international organizations, multinational corporations, alternative media, and much more.  There are links to thousands of web sites where you can gain cultural, political, economic, geographical and other information about nations of the world.  Herein lies a wealth of information on numerous topics related to global communication and mass media.

I initiated the process of developing this web site in 1999 while working on my textbook, Global Communication, and on an innovative electronic publication, Global Media Journal(ISSN 1550-7521), which is dedicated to exploring the world of communication.

Surf, connect, explore, discover, and learn about our global village.  Also, visit www.myglobalvillage.com for a vast array of information dealing with the affairs of our planet earth.
