• NASCAR Announces Members Of Citizen Journalists Media Corps: NASCAR recently announced the members of the newly-formed "NASCAR Citizen Journalists Media Corps." This group of new media consists of a range of professional and amateur experience covering NASCAR. One common theme is that each site is dedicated to providing information about NASCAR to a growing readership. After a lengthy review process, which included evaluating independent Web sites on professionalism, reporting and commentary, and use of social networking tools, 28 sites [down to 25 as of 4-30-2011] were invited to be part of the new media corps. In addition, NASCAR Public Relations has launched a page on Delicious.com that provides links to each of the Citizen Journalists web sites.
  Members of the corps will have the opportunity to apply for media credentials but like all media, will be expected to abide by the standards of professional conduct (i.e. no autographs, photos with drivers, etc.) They will also have access to other media-driven events and teleconferences and NASCAR's media-only website. NASCAR will provide access to the information, it's up to the journalists to tell the story. The traditional media that cover the sport on a day-to-day basis will continue to be the cornerstone of NASCAR news and information. However, as traditional news coverage continues to decline across the board for all sports, it is important to recognize the emerging media sources that provide unique points of view to growing audiences.
  The Citizen Journalists Media Corps includes:

  A few of these sites do not operate anymore, some have been deleted from the list.(4-29-2011)

I do NOT post personal Youtube Videos or links to them

I also do not go for April Fools type articles or those humors jokes that poke fun at NASCAR, fans or drivers
or leads fans to believe something that is not true
I won't post article links to some site that is nothing but a rehash of a press release from a team or transcript

The articles / columns / blogs MUST be NASCAR or Auto Racing related, even if they are, doesn't mean they will get posted if the 'article' is nothing but a Press Release, stats from other sites, etc.
