Day 1: Inspirational quote
"A news story should be like a mini skirt on a pretty woman. Long enough to cover the subject but short enough to be interesting". This quote makes me realize that with broadcasting you can't be boring because you won't get any viewers and you won't be in the broadcasting business. Your mom always tells us girls to wear our skirts longer to cover everything, and that is exactly how a story should be, it can can be short but it has to cover all the information so that your viewers can understand what your talking about, grasp the concept, and comprehend the intensity. Broadcasting is such an important thing in the world because imagine waking up every morning and the news not being on, or when a tragedy happens not knowing about it. To want to do broadcasting and journalism you have to live up to the expectations and not make people bored with the news. Of course current events are sometimes boring and no one really wants to pay attention to it, but its news that people need to be informed about and there are ways to get everything your want to say across but still have fun with it and not ramble on about politics or worldwide issues. Broadcasting is super fun so be that anchor or editor or producer etc. and make your story fun to listen to and easy to understand for all viewers.
