Falcon's Westside Works Project 9/15

The reporter is for NBC news, and it is clear that they are very experienced in creating quality feature stories. She starts off the story by telling the viewer what they are watching the video about and then showing video of the area and the new stadium. She gets multiple interviews with people who have been affected by the project, as well as the Falcon's owner. The video describes the effects of the new stadium and the new jobs created by it. There are very few issues with this video. It is produced very well and the footage is of high quality as well. One potential downside is that the reporter only interviews people who have been positively effected by the stadium. There may not be any people who have been negatively effected so that could be a reason for only interviewing the positive people. This story is a good example of a well produced feature story and there is much to take away from it. The shots, interviews and voiceovers are well executed and I can implement those...

Golden Nights Sexist Tweets: 9/8

In the article, the reporter clearly states the facts, and is short to the point. He quoted both sides, and represented the claims of Golden Knights and  Athlete Ally. He included the pictures of the tweets, giving support for his claim. The reporter shows little bias towards either side. However, where the reporter creates a short and to the point post, he also provides little information that furthers the conversation. Reporters are taught to elaborate further on the subject and he does not create more discussion past his black and white facts. I have written very few stories on reports this year, but if I were to create more written stories then I will implement skills shown in this post. I will provide the straight facts, with no bias, but still formulate more conversation past the facts.
