  1. Hi Ken,

    The research for this paper was taken from our annual International Public Relations Research Conference in March of 2009.

    We are still in the process of updating our brand new web site and realize there may be some kinks. Thank you for your understanding as we try to fix these problems.

  2. I would like to cite this paper in a paper I am writing, but it has no date for the research. I can I cite research without a date? It would be to your benefit to make sure all appropriate information is available for academic citations.
