Tiger Wood's Apology

I think that it was so important for Tiger Wood's to make a statement. Since he wants to keep everything so private, it is important that he puts out the rumors himself and sincerely apologize to everyone. While parts of the speech seemed rehearsed and not sincere, most of the time he sounded truely sorry. He looked sad and even paused a couple times to catch his breath because it was difficult. As a reporter, I think that this helps with putting out the rumors that have been spread, but some of the things he said will get attacked by everyone. Because he is such a prominent feature in our society, I think that he needed to be extremely careful with what he said, and I commend him for what he did say. I believe that he used the right words and really got the message across. I also think he gained some support by hugging his mother after the speech for a long time. It makes all the people out there realize that he is still a person, which attracks human interest. If that hug was planned or not is what I would like to know.

February 5th assignment "Newspapers"

I think that this article reviews a starteling fact that the country as well as society that we live in is really moving more towards being electronic for everything. I think that this is good becuase it wastes less tress and everything, but I also believe that there does need to be a solid newspaper becuase a person can get so much more from a newspaper than a computer screen. It is also a huge part of the American culture, and if it is suddenly gone we will no longer have this component.

February 4th Assignment

The story I read was called "For Mexico's Journalists, story assignments can be a date with death" by Mariano Castillo. It is a story about how the journalism in Mexico is the most dangerous throughout the world. I think that is awful that people will put thier lives on the lines to get a good story. Although it is important to get the facts, if you know that people are going to target you because you are exposing the truth, it is not worth risking your life for it.

Define Broadcast Journalism:
Broadcast Journalism is airing news or current events instantaneously through tv, radio, or internet.

Chapter 3- The News
What is news?

• News is an account of events that interest and concern the public.

List and describe the six criteria of newsworthiness

SIX CRITERIA FOR NEWSWORTHINESS

1. Unusualness :News that is the different, the unusual, the out-of-the ordinary. Unusual is more often found in bad news. ex. if a plane crashes

2. Significance: Important events that affect many people. ex. taxes, elections, wars, scientific discoveries, the economy

3. Timeliness: People want to hear about the story while it is happening, not when it is old. If it is old news, then it isn't news; its history. ex. people want to hear about the flood that is happening right now.

4. Proximity: People want to know about nearby events. ex. the asbestos problem in the local school, the news tate tax law, the proposed regional highway.

5. Prominence: When well-known people, buildings, or places are involved. ex. if a movie star is arrested

6. Human Interest: stories that have an emotional and person appeal that draws the viewers attention. ex. a minister who runs a drop-in center for troubled teenagers. a veterinarian who specializes in elephants, a sand castle competition.

What is the difference between print journalism and broadcast journalism?

1. Newspapers provide fuller coverage of more stories than the other media, including more human interest and entertainment features.

2. Readers act as thier own editors, picking an dhcoosing what they want to read.

3. News magazines provide in-depth coverage of a number of important stories

4. Radio news reports are very limited, but most timely of all the news media.

5. Television news with the addition of video. provides the most dramatic news coverage.

Broadcast Journalism

I think broadcast journalism is a form of relaying facts and interest by announcements or advertisements through any means of communication such as tv, phone, or internet.

-Real Definition: airing news/current events instantaneously through tv, radio, or internet.

USA Today Review

The article that I read was called, "Taylor Swift takes a step back from the spotlight after the awards." I thought this article was interesting because it talked about how it was benificial for Taylor to not win all the awards and take a sweep at the Grammy's. I completely agree with this becuase I think that Taylor Swift is almost becoming "over-rated" because she is everywhere. I think that she became way too popular, way too fast, and I think she needs a break. Although I am a Taylor Swift fan, its nice to have a break from her winning everything and giving other artists chances to win for thier hard work.

Interview

The person that I interviewed was Taylor Fienhage. She is a sophmore at wanted to take broadcast journalism because she thought it would be fun and likes to work in teams. She also wants to be on the forecast next year so this class was even more important. Taylor has played hockey since she was four and also likes to play lacrosse and other sports in general. She enjoys collecting change and hanging out with her friends. She moved to Minnesota when she was in kindergarten and she really likes Chipotle. However, she hates fish and to this day has never eaten any kind of fish, and never plans to!
