Producing the Nikkei Weekly
On October 25, Robert Cameron of the Nikkei Weekly will talk about the production of Japan’s weekly English-language financial newspaper. Based on his extensive experience in journalism and editorial work in Japan, Cameron will discuss the pains and pleasures of translating, editing, and producing the material for a weekly periodical that maintains consistently high standards with regard to both content and the quality of English usage. This promises to be an interesting inside look at the production of a well-known and respected publication. For those who want to break into editing or who want the challenge of translation for a weekly periodical, Cameron has hinted that there may be opportunities for SWET members and visitors at the lecture to introduce themselves to the Nikkei Weekly.
