Bulletin Board Blab 3.28.05

conversatoin.bmpWhat are those crazy people talking about on the Mediabistro Bulletin Boards today?

What do you do when you’ve been misquoted
…online? The nice thing is that things can be corrected–quickly–on the “internet.”
Can you ask a company to reimburse you for travelling to them for a job interview? Unless they offer in the first place, probably not. There will most definitely be somebody else going for the job who will be willing to travel for free.

When do you submit an entire piece and when do you submit a pitch?
Some pieces yes, other pieces no. Always keep in mind the possibility that you could write this piece and it never sees the light of day.
Getting companies to talk about about operations for trade magazine pieces.
You’re going from freelance to permanent: How much money can you get?
