Have a great break on Monday!
See Bradley's intriguing video below. Any comments on his question?
As promised, I have posted lots of resources for your perusal -- journalism site links in the main blog posts and feeds to j outlets and blogs on the right column. I have also posted just a few names of reporters but please find the ones who speak to you. Some bloggers I like are Dan Gillmor, Adrian Holovaty, Jay Rosen, Anna Marie Cox. Most of them write about journalism issues but you are not limited to that topic.
Your assignment for Thursday:
Set up your RSS feeds on Google Reader or Netvibes. Feel free to use some of the feeds that show up here. ALSO, include the feed of our blog. The feed icon is at the bottom of the page. Pick one or more favorite journalism writers (either mainstream or blogger) and write a blurb (three grafs or so) about what distinguishes this person specifically. Include a short writing sample from your person. Please post this on the blog by Wednesday at noon. If you are unable to post, bring in your typed assignment.
Read Chapter 1 in the Missouri Group text. I have asked the library to put this on e-reserves. Keep checking the bookstore.
Review the style guide in the back of the text. We will have a short quiz on Thursday.
We will also talk about grading on Thursday. I want your input.
I am enjoying reading the profiles of moi! Lots of juicy info.
