Our "Happy Farewell" as Editors of @JCMSJournal just came out. Which I guess means it's really over? If you're interested in our reflections on working (hard) for equity in academic journals publishing, please follow the link. Or DM me for a PDF! quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/t/text/idx…


Can't believe today's my last day as Ed of @JCMSJournal. I had no idea how much this job would change me or that it would be the greatest honor and challenge of my career. THANK YOU to all who wrote, reviewed, and edited for JCMS. Together we created the change we wanted to see.

Today ends my amazing partner Caetlin @VideoPhD's five-year term as editor in-chief of @JCMSJournal. She doesn't brag enough, so here's some of what she and her amazing team have accomplished.



The snark has hit the fan. My horror-themed takedown of Ken Auletta's new bio of Harvey Weinstein just appeared on the Washington Post website--print on Sunday! washingtonpost.com/outlook/2022/0…


We at JCMS are excited invite our authors, future contributors, and @SCMStudies fam to check out our new submissions’ portal, now live via AirTable, courtesy of our tireless production editor @bazintastic airtable.com/shr9RXgxBFJoaD…



The countdown is real, people! #Boston126

Couldn't be happier that Bo Ruberg & Liz Ellcessor are succeeding me as Co-Editors of JCMS. Not only have I been a fan of their scholarship for years (& enjoyed working with them on their own publications in JCMS), but their application essays were truly inspiring! So excited!!!

Big news alert!!! 🥳🥳Please join us in welcoming @trilliz and @MyOwnVelouria as the next Co-Editors of JCMS. Committed to diversity, outreach, open access and online initiatives, and the various needs of @SCMStudies membership, they will serve a five year term from January 2023.

@VideoPhD in conversation with Charles Acland: "In addition to studies of gun and knife violence in cinema culture, we need studies of racial profiling and microaggressions as well." The second piece of 'Summer Books in Conversation' is live on ASAP/J. asapjournal.com/summer-books-i…
