German science journalists gather in Bremen, Germany next week for the annual Wissenswerte conference. I'll speak on a panel there on Monday.
I've also been asked to consult with a group there that is hoping to launch a German version of HealthNewsReview.org.
I was also recently approached by an Italian journalist who is interested in the concept for his country. This idea has certainly taken off - from the pioneering efforts in Australia, to Canada, the US, Hong Kong, and now potential for more countries to begin reviewing the quality of health/medical/science news coverage.
The UK also has a "Behind the Headlines" project with a somewhat different approach.

My policy on commentsI'm adopting the policy of a blog I admire: “Comments are great; obnoxious comments get deleted. Deal." I also won’t post profanity, product pitches, or anything from anyone who doesn’t list what appears to be an actual e-mail address.
