We had our first newscast on Wednesday, and I honestly thought it went really well. Not perfect, of course, but it was better than I had expected. We did four takes. You could tell everyone was really nervous the first time around, but by the second take, everyone was much more comfortable and relaxed. It made me proud of our team, and excited to see what’s to come. 

I can’t believe it’s all coming to an end.  My college years flew by in the blink of an eye. It’s a bittersweet feeling. Part of me is ready to go, and part of me is dying to stay. One thing I know for sure is how much I’m going to miss WVU News. It has been an amazing experience and semester with the team. Reflecting back on the beginning of the semester until now, I realize how much I have learned from this class, and Professor Dahlia.

Newscast 4 was our special edition show. We decided to cover stories only focusing on gun control. It was an obvious choice because of the national debate currently going on, as well as the recent shooting incidents.

Newscast three is finished, and I think it was our best yet, for many reasons. The reporters have made a huge improvement all the way around. Their stories, stand-ups, voiceovers and editing skills are all so much better than they were at the start of the year. Usually, we struggle to find enough good packages to make show. Once, we didn’t even have any stories to use for BOR.
