[edit] postivism

this article seems to be loaded with the non-neutral position of scientific positivism. While I assume there is little interest in having me edit this to repair that, i'm likely going to make some minor edits that admits to the broader understanding of the field. Buridan

[edit] Removal of "The Memo" blog from the External Links

Mr. Roche: I noticed you removed the "The Memo" blog from the organizational communication list. I am an org comm major and also work in the field of corporate communications. The only idea that the blog is attempting to "promote" is the concept of infusing the discipline of the classical, systems, network and symbolic/cultural theories into the "real" world of organizations. I'm sorry that was not clear to you. Brad Bellaver

[edit] expanding view to transcend positivism/reductionism

I tried to keep as much as was feasible of the original article, attempting to transcend the simplistic and positivistic "business communication" feel.

Buridan, does this go far enough to address your concerns, or is there more heavy lifting to do?

[edit] ongoing work

going to try to update this page as i get time, reformatting, key issues, etc...i would encourage those out there who know about the discipline to dive in. as if it needs to be stated, these views are mine alone, reflecting my perspective...
